(The depth of this work may be one of the best in Bergman II, so its complexity is difficult to describe. This is precisely the embodiment of the more complicated film art. I will not write a long review or elaborate interpretation, but only refine the core) A pair of ordinary Husband and wife, a pair of contradictory lovers (the pastor and teacher), (the husband, the pastor and the lover) have their own spiritual dilemmas: 1. The husband suffers from the brutality of the world, and finally cannot bear it and chooses to commit suicide. This shows his belief The fuse of suicide was listening to the pastor’s insincerity. In a sense, this also stimulated the collapse of the husband’s faith and cut the last straw of pain. 2. The pastor is trapped in losing his love, lost in faith, treating his lover with indifference, and showing enthusiasm to the world. The irony is strong. The pastor lacks the ability to listen to his lover, but he is immersed in his professional instinct and listens to the world. This kind of indifference and contradiction (the caring and noisy aversion to the lover) that escapes and hurts the loved one tears through the pastor's true emotional world: desolation and death. It also laid the groundwork for the pastor to fall into the suffering of doubting faith forever. And a very special and important part of the movie is that the husband seeks to talk and tolerate but is told by the pastor, which can further reflect the pastor's inner repression and doubts about his faith! 3. The pastor’s lover is struggling to get the pastor’s understanding and true love. She constantly compromises for love, but she is constantly hurt by love. From the pastor’s lover, we can also see a complex human instinct: consciousness is instinctively deceptive. In a sense, this is a psychological instinct for self-protection. (This self-deception in the movie is embodied in the pastor’s lover’s persistent love for the pastor, even if he gets constant harm) The most complicated thing here is actually the pastor’s suffering in doubts about faith: when “faith” is an objective existence, Become a "subjective" existence of human beings, (the priest falls into) the suffering of doubt (belief), has nothing to do with (objective) belief, and is trapped in oneself! The silence of the Lord stems from the insincereness of people. Finally, about Bogman: 1. He just thinks about faith as always, and doubts it! 2. He never concealed his mockery of the hypocrisy and lies of the world. 3. The priest is the incarnation of Bogman. 90 points for video, 100 points for script, 100 points for director, Bogman's deconstruction of the inner spiritual world may be a mirror of himself! The subtlety and complexity of the 100-point performer can always be touched and realized through the film here in Bogman. 100 points for innovation, 98 points for works, content coefficient 1, 98 points for film history
