Eva: You are very kind to me, but your mind is elsewhere. I ask you questions, and you almost never answer them; to you, I am the doll you use to relieve boredom in your spare time; I can feel it intuitively Your heart is divided, the scariest thing is that you have a smile on your face when you are angry; you call Dad my dear friend when you hate me, and you call me when you are tired of me.. . my baby girl; I speak and act to please you, and I can't even show who I am when I'm alone, because I hate everything about myself, it's horrible, Mom; except Besides yourself, do you care about other people? ; as you need all to love you; mother, is that so, is a daughter's misfortune a mother's victory? ; You always abandon us again and again; you always want to make exceptions for yourself, you are used to excusing yourself. Charlotte: I don't remember my parents touching me, neither chastising nor touching me; I don't know anything about love, I can only express my emotions in music; When I'm awake at night, I wonder if I've ever lived, and I wonder if other people do the same, or if some people are more gifted than others at being alive, or if some people never lived, they just Live in the world; I can see that you love me and I want to love you, but I can't, I'm afraid you'll make demands on me; I always feel out of place; I'm always homesick when I When I got home, I realized that what I wanted must be something else. Victor: Sometimes I stare at my wife, she doesn't know I'm there, she's tortured; I love this passage she wrote: "One has to learn how to live, and I practice every day , the biggest obstacle is that I don't know who I am; if someone could love me as I really am, maybe I'll be able to understand myself, but it's very unlikely", I wanted to tell her, even just once , someone loves him wholeheartedly. But what I can't say to convince her, because I always miss the point.

    In Bergman's film, this one is more mediocre. This very beautiful book, the filming is so unobstructed, is it with an autobiographical nature and suddenly the authorities are fascinated? The relationship between mother and daughter is metaphorized by a sonata, and the whole film is structured according to the sonata. This book is very deep; however, for some reason, it seems to be suddenly incapable of being able to, and many things seem to be said but not actually said. Fortunately, the performances of Bergman and Uman have improved the quality.

    The artistic temperament of this film is quite dazzling. From the title to the structure, from the story to the performance, from the picture to the lines, the director has given too many samples for analysis. The conversation between the mother and her drunken daughter after waking up from a nightmare, the progressive relationship of the levels, and the precision of the performance, makes me feel like watching a psychological thriller, and I am heartbroken.

  • Charlotte Andergast: A sense of reality is a matter of talent. Most people lack that talent and maybe it's just as well.
