      Scenes From A Marriage--Beautiful Love

      After watching the currently updated version of "Marriage Life" in one breath, I revisited Bergman's film version. I have to say that the scenes, dialogues, soundtracks, and actors shot in Northern Europe are more classical, and it's easy to pull you into Qinglie. and like a huge void, fell into the emotional abyss.

      Does marriage have to be funny?

      After watching the five-hour extended version, the whole indoor scene, high-density dialogue and facial close-up did not feel dull at all. Several places even hold their breath and grieve with the protagonist.

      Uman appropriately expresses his heart through facial micro-expressions, and his acting skills are so emotional.

      The first act shows the state of a "perfect" married life, with Marianne and Joann respecting each other, as opposed to the mutual slander and sarcasm shown by...

      Marriage

      I have long admired Bergman's name, so I didn't look for his early works, but started watching from "Marriage Life", which is the most widely accepted by the public. It is said that this film is a "plain work" that the master had to try in order to cater to the public's taste, but received enthusiastic responses, but from it, you can still see some subtleties that everyone knows but cannot feel.

      Seeing the interview of the couple's love at the beginning, I...

      Love is a one-sided statement of the lover - episode 2

      Brother Xu said, "Emotions should be confused, and don't be clear. Sometimes what others say, the parties are easy to associate, and the relationship is very fragile."

      When I first watched this movie, I saw the emotional fragility, dodging, hiding, restraint, selfishness, and finally came to the conclusion that long-term intimacy will die out. However, such a simple sentence can't actually cover the whole process of "why come here", so I will revisit it...

      time gave me a third buddy

      Forbearance but fierce decay is infiltrating people's spiritual world. At first I felt nervous when I saw the quarrel, but later on, I felt that I was thinking deeply as an outsider, but I didn't feel the same, maybe I was too young, wait until the age of marriage to see.

      I'm looking at the ending now, and I think it's actually quite good, probably because the people in the play will always be tolerant when they get old. Anyway, most of this kind of tolerance is not voluntary, but...

      I really mustered up the courage to watch this film. I watched the Youku movie version, and then watched the TV version, but unfortunately all of them were deleted. It's a very good work. The director's script is too strong, and the script is also looked at later. The collapse of women lies in the fact that a happy life is built on the loss of self and obedience to please others. When a person no longer needs her to please, life will collapse completely. All disguises and performances lose...

      Philosophical and dramatic lines, scary but true. Every word between a couple without love is precarious and like walking on thin ice. "The best marriage is a five-year contract, and then the contract is renewed." This idea coincides with the annual renewal of the marriage of the sister-in-law...

      The 5.0 lines and performances are horribly detailed. The two actors are too tough... I sweated after watching it. The faces of the two before and after entering the mirror have an indescribable sense of intimacy and distance every...

    Movie quotes

    • Marianne: We're pitiful, self-indulgent cowards that can't connect with reality and are ashamed of ourselves.

    • Johan: Affection shouldn't be kept just for vacations.

    • Johan: We're emotional illiterates. We've been taught about anatomy and farming methods in Africa. We've learned mathematical formulas by heart. But we haven't been taught a thing about our souls. We're tremendously ignorant about what makes people tick.
