    Bergman's masterpiece, exploring the mysteries of death and religion. The plot extends from playing chess to discussing religion and God, and subtly reflects different social levels. I didn't understand it, but I have a deep memory of the classic image of the god of death in the film, and every sentence is capable and...

    #SIFF2018# The big screen rewatch, it is simply very satisfying. When the plague spreads and death looms, does God remove the fear from people's hearts? Can faith save those suffering souls? Faith has become irrelevant in the face of milk and...

    Bergman's painful refraction. But the so-called bitter, always because there is sweet to...

    Rewatch. It turned out that the film earlier than "Wild Strawberry". In the same year, Bergman actually shot two great works. The styles appear to be very different, but they are actually the same. I was still surprised by the abruptness of "Wild" breaking out of the shell. It turns out that a lot of exploration and accumulation have been done in this film. Brock actually hoped to defeat the god of death in the game, and he dared to do things under the opponent's eyes again and again; at the...

    Today's movies have long stopped focusing on the silence of God, and only concerned with the hustle and bustle of human beings. In this ironic age, Bergman is still questioning the existence of God, and the sharpness of "The Seventh Seal" is its strength. It's an uncompromising film that treats good and evil with the same simplicity, and sees Faith as its only...

    An unexpectedly good-looking melodrama, with lively characters in the group play. The two passages discussing theology in the church and reading the Book of Revelation in the castle focus on showing the depth. The two passages of the flogging procession and the burning of the "witch" vividly show the religious atmosphere of the Middle Ages. Breathtaking. The dead have moral flaws to some extent, and the survival of the comedian's family of three is...

    And God doesn't talk to people, God and love are a deception. The Crusades used the slogan of faith to do "inhuman things" that only human beings can do, and only they clearly realized that it is better to feel pain or spread pain than to believe. After reading religion for a long time, I still don't understand...

    It's really inappropriate in today's age. The movie is not difficult to understand, and the historical background and religious background are now commonplace. The various roles and occupations that appear can be explored in...

    One of Bergman's most satisfying works, Medieval Variations of the Bible. The mythological narrative full of philosophical thoughts makes it difficult for me and other people without divine wisdom to digest it for a while. A brush is super unsuitable for the big screen, and I didn't remember a single line of the drama. However, the scene of the blacksmith and the juggler manager, Forest Gashi, was very cute. Three and a half...
