Jesus' last words before his death were: "God, why did you abandon me?" Since Jesus himself had doubts about his belief, why should I believe...

The sparse narrative creates a lot of breath. Watching this movie is like reading your own diary, with no origin and no whereabouts, but it seems that you are in it, and the long monologue facing the camera is very moving, I think this It is a technique that can only be used in Western literary films. It is difficult to trust such performances in China. The relaxation of language adapts to the atmosphere of a film. Unlike Chinese, which is very strong, it is necessary to rely on silence to...

(Mainly complaining) Sometimes I think Bergman is quite double-standard (or stricter than others and more lenient than oneself), Godard and Orson's philosophical expression on the character shots is too fast and too rich, and the rhythm of the narrative leads to circulation. The emotional and spiritual center pulls the crotch and criticizes violently. It doesn't happen often myself. ....

Part 2 of the "God Trilogy". Still minimalist scenes, few characters, very rich dialogue, and very deep philosophical/religious themes. The morning sacrament and the afternoon sermon were connected like a circle, sealing off those who were torn between believing and unbelieving—suspected by the silence of God. God's silence is excrutiatingly painful is the inner cry of all the characters and the theme of this...

A more direct and serious questioning of the existence of God. We can make a choice to never resist or give up this endless obsession...

[80%] The second part of the trilogy continues to uphold the theme of God's Silence very well. However, this time Bergman simplified the play even more, removed the inconvenience of understanding caused by various plot and image symbolism, and echoed "Still in the Mirror" in many places, all of which made the film look like Like the first "instruction" or "after reading". The roaring creek next to the suicidal person, the restlessness of the train passing by, masking the silence, I like the...

It's more of existentialism than religion. The most devout priest of God becomes the most miserable man of faith, in which the Holy Father is false and mysterious, elusive, noisy and complicated. In front of the helpers who attempt suicide, the pastor becomes a helpless confidant, while in front of the woman who loves the pastor, the woman is like the sacrificed Christ, who seems to be the warmest compassionate person who knows how to live for others. Weak priests are mean, cold-blooded,...

Bergman has a unique way of explaining belief and doubt. Even the knowledge of Jesus on the cross doubts God's instructions, let alone others. The so-called middle work of the so-called trilogy that I picked up occasionally is not very immersive. It is so-called further research, and it will be better to continue after reading the other two when I have...

Absolute five star. Bergman speaks so directly about God and faith this time around. Lots of close-ups, very concise, with a bit of a Bresson feel. The middle part of the Faith trilogy begins with the theme "Love is God" of "Still in the Mirror", and finally draws the theme of "God is silent" and enters the last...

Bergman is of course a thinker and a connotation control. The whole film is a talking photography group, but the film's performance elements are not strong. In fact, I really like his reflections and opinions on religion, probably because I have thought about everything he thought. People who don't think about religion are not good philosophers. Pity each other, Zeng always suffers for the unknown and ethereal things and ignores and rejects belief. The unknown is never confirmed, belief is just...
