some memories.

"You can't ask for eternal intimacy, that's boring.

Is it possible for people who live together to be completely loyal to each other? Is Loyalty a Giving? Or is it an accusation or a rule? People always promise that they are willing to win the heart of the same person, and the white heads will not be separated, but can such loyalty really be promised? Is this a secret repression and control?

For the heroine, she thinks that it is enough for the other party to treat her well. She said that with humor, friendship, tolerance and reasonable expectations, love is not necessary. But is it really so?

When she read the diary to her husband until her eyes were flushed and emotional, she found that her husband fell asleep. She smiled gently, gently pushed him awake, and said, you should go back to your lover, it's getting late. When her husband wanted to kiss her instead of listening to her chatter, she cried and said, please, look at my soul.

Did life go wrong like this, because the wrong path was chosen? Did you fall into the trash before you even noticed it? But in an interview before the hero and heroine, they said, we are madly in love with each other. Isn't love the right way?

No one can tell us exactly what love is. We are all emotionally illiterate. We study various subjects with our hearts, but we don't know our own feelings, and we don't know how to get the approval of others. In "1 Corinthians", St. Paul said that love is beautiful, but it makes people make mistakes, it should be a very rare feeling, almost no one can really experience it, but at a wedding, or It's some special occasion where love is a useful declaration.

The little house at the end of the film is intriguing, as if the two are living in a dark room, they have touched and can hear, but they have no way to really see each other.

But I believe that there should be simple and clear love in this world. It has nothing to do with personal senses or physical desires, there are so many things to cherish. I also hope that we are not forced to play roles that we do not want to play, so that we can also be a little better to others.

    The husband is indifferent and only interested in himself. As for the wives, they showed their desires in their respective identities like a duck to water, and then united to share the thrill of betrayal. Looking around, almost all families are like this. The pain of marriage is so lasting and deep, and we can't wait to turn to it.

    299min version. It should be more properly translated as "marriage scene". The ending episode was a bit tiring to watch, but it didn't have the emotional intensity of the previous episodes, but the conversation with my mother sublimated the theme. Liv Ullmann's third episode is heartbreaking, capturing a cockroach mirroring reality in close-up. It feels that the form can go to more extremes, and only this couple will act. The scenery of the Faroe Islands at the end of each episode corresponds to the change in the relationship between the characters

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.
