I've never been in love but I'm in love all the time

Mixed feelings. Everything is human nature. In different petri dishes, marriage, work, communication... A good filmmaker is like looking through a microscope to see how human nature is revealed and functions in different petri dishes. After the end, the emotions surging in our hearts are all projections of ourselves, calm down and take a deep breath, sigh a long breath, it is really interesting to be born as a human being.

When we are no longer obsessed with owning, when we no longer cover up and suppress ourselves to please each other, when we are no longer resentful for not being heard and understood by others, when two souls can truly interact with each other as equals and sincere, this is love. conditions of existence.

At the end of the film, Marianne says that she will never love again, and will grieve because she feels that she has never loved or been loved by anyone. I'm surprised this is not me? I have always had a lot of conflict in my heart about love. I long for love and avoid it because I know the conditions for love as above. I know that I can't do it, and I know that others can't do it. I'm afraid. thus hurt each other. I believe from the bottom of my heart that there is love in every moment, but I don't believe that love can exist beyond time, so I have never loved, but I am in love all the time. This is how I've always been, my note on love.

    1. I watched the TV series. Bergman, who has been married 5 times, said almost everything about marriage. The 6 episodes not only depict the separation, gathering and dispersal process of a pair of lovers, but also represent the six aspects of marriage and love. Types/States: Harmony and perfection, bright on the outside and decayed on the inside, disintegrating due to boredom and deceit, endless entanglement, frank and rude love, murder and torture, cheating and falling in love again. 2. Indoor dramas with extremely high purity (only a few transitions have outdoor shots, and the end of each episode is the scenery of Faroe Island, which is desolate and beautiful, for adjustment), with rich dialogues, dense lines, golden sentences repeated, and every word is pearly. 3. Liv Ullman and Josephson are so good that even in a lot of close-ups, I can't pick out any faults. 4. Excerpts from the highlights of each episode: ①Introduction and irony from the interview with a model couple at the beginning, couples who hate each other but are inseparable from each other = extreme example of marriage; ②A middle-aged woman who is determined to divorce because of lack of love = early warning + profile; ③ The zooming and quick push is terrifying, and the rapid follow-up in the close-up is irritable; ④ The photo montage of Uman's growth while reading the diary; ⑤ The double composition & status reversal; (9.5/10)

    First time watching a Bergman movie. Although Bergman's insight into human feelings is almost terrifyingly subtle and real, the inexhaustible chatter of trivial dialogues really makes me a little drowsy. It reminds me of the words in "Yi Yi", if the film is all about life, we will just live our lives.

Scenes from a Marriage quotes

  • Marianne: I felt inadequate at work and at home, and I was a washout in bed too. I was hedged in by all the griping and endless demands! Goddamn you! Was it so strange that I used sex for leverage? I was outnumbered, having to fight you, both sets of parents and society! When I think about what I endured, I could scream! I tell you this: never again! You sit there whining about conspiracies. Well, it serves you right! I hope you'll have it rammed down your throat that you're a useless parasite.

    Johan: You're being utterly grotesque!

    Marianne: So what? That's what I've become!

  • Marianne: Sometimes you ask such goddamn silly questions.

    Johan: Sorry. Are you angry with me?

    Marianne: I'm not angry, but I'm on the verge of tears. The trouble with me is that I can't get angry. I wish that for once in my life I could really lose my temper, as I sometimes feel I have every right to. I think it would change my life. But that's not the point. You spoke earlier about loneliness. That bit about being strong on your own. I don't believe in your gospel of isolation.I think it's a sign of weakness.

    Johan: What's wrong, Marianne?

    Marianne: It's so... humbling.

    Johan: What's humbling?

    Marianne: I think about you... and I think about myself and about the future. I can't see how you're going to cope without me. Sometimes I think in desperation, "I must look after Johan. He's my responsibility. It's up to me to make sure he's all right. That's the only our lives will be worthwhile."

    Marianne: I don't believe people are strong all on their own. You have to have someone's hand to hold.
