The banquet scene was well shot

It seems that real movie review writers don't pay much attention to movie reviews in school, otherwise this one must be well reviewed. In fact, Baidu can find a lot of them. I just want to say how I feel. The funny thing is that I still misunderstood the plot.

The banquet scene was well shot, Western Christmas, family gatherings, many relatives, kissing, kissing hands, kissing forehead, complicated and very family-like.

It's a bit long, like six hours long, and I also fast-forwarded it at twice the speed.

In fact, the master's films are often made for him to watch. Others saw it and thought it was good.


Chinese people do not have such a custom when it comes to family performances.

The final ending is really dark, and the stepfather is so tyrannical, he confines them, in a legal form.

Fanny and Alexander quotes

  • Ekdahlska huset - Helena Ekdahl: I loved being a mother. I loved having a big belly. I loved being an actress too, but I preferred being a mother.

  • Emilie Ekdahl - Ekdahlska huset: Your sister gave me sleeping pills for my insomnia. I put three of them in the broth. I did not intend for you to drink it. While you were checking on Elsa, I put three more in. Soon you will sleep very soundly, and when you wake up, I will be gone.
