Reflections on War. The war is like an indisputable thread, which closely connects the characters' bizarre behaviors, characters, and inexplicable plots.
War, cheating, cowardice, murder by design, quarrelling hysterically, crying bitterly, and lingering on the post-war ruins. Brutally killing innocent boys, but not covering up the tenderness in human nature when using the oars to poke away the corpse...
In the last shot, I thought that love hoped that everything was over, but the wife whispered about the dream in her husband's ear... At that moment, the sun shone into the boundless river, and they were snuggling up on a boat that drifted to nowhere, quietly Waiting for fate to come.
War makes people abandon their conscience and self-esteem, and living becomes the only justice, and strength can only be achieved by indifference.
After reading it for a while, I don't know whether such indifference is the only way to regain confidence in a powerless situation.
ps: Haha, watching Bergman's movies, no matter how boring the beginning is, he has the ability to slowly open your eyes and push aside the limitations of understanding layer by layer.
The greatest joy is watching him peel his characters like an onion and his subjects...
