The film, which brought Bergman the Grand Jury Prize at the Venice International Film Festival , is a metaphorical allegory in a comedy package. The film borrows Vogler's deception process, which contains multiple inner meanings. There are a lot of satire and content aimed at critics and the bourgeoisie in the film. Of course, there are also religious propositions of Bergman, which also question and doubt the existence of God and the...

As in "Night of the Clowns," Ingmar Bergman's "Face" (aka "The Magician") once again tackles the theme of the sad plight of wandering entertainers, albeit in a more connotative way. Complex and deep. Bergman further emphasizes the social situation of the artist as a market producer.
Who are Vogler and his troupe? In the words of Dr Veserus, the Royal Adviser of Medicine: "On the one hand we see the idealist Dr Vogler, who practises according to some hypnotism that is beyond the norm;...

The border between reality and magician (brief comment)
CC Bergman suit, 8.2 points. Movies are magic, and the director is both a magician and a clown. Since he is a clown, he is destined to wander all his life, send away the old, welcome the new, and continue to embark on our lonely journey in the hustle and bustle. Therefore, the tears of the clown/magician and Nordgren's music, whose pride is worthless, is a real highlight (the composer has clearly made a breakthrough in style), Fisher's photography is a wonderland (especially the one in the...

Some Thoughts on the Film "The Face"
1. Fogler's sculptural face is like the silent Jesus facing Pilate, who sees himself as a martyr.
In the first shot at the beginning of the film, the long view, the carriage is parked on the wasteland, and Fogler and Manda, on the left side of the picture, are leaning against a wooden frame, which looks like a torture platform. There are insinuations about the "resurrection of Christ" in the story, which Bergman dealt with. Fogler established his belief and poured himself into... -

"Face" has Reflection of Performance but Reveals Sadness
The carriage drove through the smoky woods, puncturing beams of light and disturbing a pool of still water. Such as religious paintings in motion. This scene is from the Swedish director Ingmar Bergman's film "Face" (Ansiktet, 1958). At that time, Bergman had established himself in the international art film industry with two other black-and-white films, Wild Strawberries and The Seventh Seal (1957). Men's pursuit."
"Face" has clever games and ironic colors,...
