The film begins with the husband's real nightmare (reflecting the real survival situation and inner anxiety), and finally ends with the wife's imaginary dream (expressing a kind of expectation for peace and yearning for ordinary/normal life). Between the nightmare and the dream, there is war. Under the panic and the power of the army, this is the backbone of the movie! In addition to the backbone, there is another core, that is, Bergman's thinking on the individual existence and emotional world of people, and the complex presentation of individual relationships (in fact, the ideological elements in Bergman's films). For example, this movie presents the relationship between husband and wife: 1. From an individual point of view, it is a selfish and cowardly husband, and an uneasy and panic wife, the survival and unrest in the war. 2. From the perspective of their relationship, this is a couple who are emotionally detached. They live in a world where they are uneasy but suspicious of each other. 3. From the perspective of survival in reality, people's weaknesses (selfishness and unease) in the context of war can always greatly magnify the dark side that people repress in their hearts, such as the husband's various behaviors in the movie, whether it is hiding money and killing people with guns, or Snatch the young soldiers' guns and boots, and kill both! This kind of man who is weak in reality but crazy because of power/survival/wife betrayal (derailment) is alienation and resistance under the dual unease of war power and husband and wife contradictions, and the wife's unease runs through the war and the relationship between husband and wife. 4. It expresses not only the personality/emotional differences between men and women, but also the survival differences between men and women! And this relationship is obviously already riddled with holes. Summary: I am afraid that only Bergman can make the film not forget the anti-war theme, but also present the complex relationship between people and people in the context of war! The title of the movie "Shame" is more of a projection of human nature, which can be interpreted in multiple ways: 1. The wife's suspicion of her husband's emotions, and her disdain for her husband's selfishness and cowardice (shame for her husband); 2. The husband has an affair with his wife Weeping weakness (the husband is ashamed of himself and his wife), 3. The husband hides money and kills the innocent in order to survive (shame for the husband), 4. The army (power) contempt for the survival of the people (shame for the army), 5. Even the husband and wife have long been separated from each other, but the shame of interdependence for survival! 6. Bergman's anti-war (seeing war as a shame) 85 points for the script, 95 points for the director, 90 points for the performance, 95 points for the young actors in China who want to learn to perform well, I suggest to analyze and imitate the performances of Bergman's film actors Training is a compulsory course, and don't take performance as a superficial or even exaggerated character imagination! I think domestic actors are so exaggerated that they are really flying... Innovation 90 points for works 90 points for content coefficient 0.
