Starting from romantic love and discussing the characteristics of this movie

Romantic love and marriage are very difficult to be compatible. The passion of love will eventually endure the test of firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar tea. Perhaps romantic love itself has his misunderstanding of love, which means that love is not only a romantic side, but also that there are many kinds of love. The love that stays in love for a lifetime may need to have common hobbies, common life ideals, etc. to pay, instead of being immersed in their respective careers after being in love, and ultimately making love unable to be nourished. Who knows? Qian Yang style love, Lu You and Tang Wan (if not separated) love, the love of Six Chapters of a Floating Life? This is such a difficult topic, so in the end many people boil down to luck. I think this is wrong again, certainly not just because of luck. I want to be able to get such a beautiful love. Among them, the individual must have the pursuit of aesthetics and art, the pursuit of a pure soul, the pursuit of a lifelong career, even if the career of this life is just the pursuit of being worthy of the heart and magnanimous. Such as the six chapters of a floating life. From the analysis of the filming technique and the characters chosen by the screenwriter, this movie also gave me a lot of inspiration. For example, the cold shot of Stockholm at the beginning of the movie, and the speechlessness in the "fight" with the "neighbors"; the large span of time spans without procrastination, such as the summer passing by between words, such as marriage. It’s done just in the middle of talking. For example, Monica’s personality traits or the dramatic changes in her outlook on life and her feelings were revealed in the gaze of the spirit. For example, her husband’s hard-bearing breadwinner and Monica’s derailment came home after a business trip. Finish and so on.

The selected characters are the working class in the middle and lower classes of society at that time, and the complex and multifaceted life is revealed. In the film, there is a vicious attack on the honest male protagonist by love rival Riley, a fight with a neighbor, and a plot of stealing something to eat a delicious meal and being caught (Monica looked around when she escaped The wilderness scene is so vast and tragic), there are bargaining for shopping, the difficulty of raising a family, the taciturn of a working father and the loneliness of a son, the harmony between people, the warmth of family, the noisy of the family, and so on. These details make the movie real, rich and full.

    The Swedish girl looks just like Ingrid Bergman's beauty, pure, healthy and sexy. So beautiful.

    [October 2019 Bergman √] It is said that Bergman successfully entered the American market...The structure is extremely rigorous, full of echoes and contrasts between the drama and the audiovisual, the performance is wonderful, and the description of the class is slightly stereotyped , But the play on the impact of the native family on people is still very precise. Monica is quite a new heroine who loves and hates. The scene of the two people wandering around the world in the second act is really good, the scenery is well used, and it is extremely strong with the first act and the third act. Contrast. In the third act, Bergman's style of mid-to-close-range relationship between "love is torturing each other", which expresses anxiety and tearing and cannot be separated, has taken shape. At the same time, there are two very exciting, close-up shots of the use of character modeling light converted into stage light (one male and female protagonist).

Summer with Monika quotes

  • Harry Lund: You see - I've always been so lonely. My mother got sick when I was five. She was sick until she died. I was eight by then. Dad went a bit funny after that. He got all quiet. He and I would sit at home all evening, neither saying a word. We'd just sit there.

    Monika Eriksson: I've never been alone. There's so many of us. The brats fight and wreck everything. Dad's always drunk and kicking up a fuss.

  • Monika Eriksson: Harry, why do some people have all the luck while others are miserable?

    Harry Lund: Monika, we have each other.
