, when Maria ran into the woman who came to consult her about divorce, Marianne was disturbed, the woman had been married for 20 years, but she had no love for her husband, nor for her children, which made people It's unbelievable that a woman thinks that even if she doesn't love her husband, she should love her children as people say, but she can't love her. The husband asks him what love is? She replied that she didn't know, and then said, slowly, my sense of touch disappeared, you see, this is a table, I can see it and touch it, but I don't feel anything. In fact, she and Marianne had the same problem, they were both emotionally blind.
Marianne and her husband John are both middle class and leaders in their respective industries, but a very strange and common problem exists in them, namely ignorance of feelings and ignorance of themselves, these two people, especially It's Marianne who is in a self-enclosed world, which I can understand very well, because I see myself in the film, Marianne's world is well-organized, absolutely can't be disrupted by any accident, absolutely follow the plan rather than randomness, this kind of compulsion The result of the disorder is to make her farther and farther away from the people around her, especially with John. Besides, John, he thinks it doesn't exist as long as he doesn't think about it, and in Marianne's side, she instinctively perceives it, that is, the problem between them, but John's try to avoid causing the marital problem to become more and more serious but lingering Unable to solve it, it ended in failure.
Let me think about how many times Bergman got married, four or five times? I forgot, but every time I watch his interviews, I always feel guilty about the women who left him, he can't even remember their names, and his children, let alone his grandchildren, who he is with whom Can't tell, he's numb, he's the same as Marianne and the woman who's been married for 20 years and has no love, that's all.
The span of the last three scenes gradually widens, which can be summarized as Marianne's growth after setbacks and John's stagnation. In addition, two topics are brought up, which are sex and violence. Haha, is it human nature? When a marriage breaks down, it is always the woman who starts to face life anew, as if the wife can live if the husband dies, but not the other way around. Bergman basically crossed after the death of Ingrid van Rosen, I don't know if he was a little Oedipal, because the last wife looked a lot like his mother, and he and the fifth wife The longest time together. Let's talk about the old topic of communication. If Marianne and John were honest with each other, then they would blow it up long ago. At the beginning of the film, what is loyalty? After watching the whole film, it's easy to go back to the title and ask yourself, do you need loyalty? A person emphasizes that he needs to be loyal, but it is ridiculous that he does not even understand himself, and forcibly binds himself to the whole surrounding until he suffocates. What kind of loyalty is that? Loyalty what? There are actually many conflicts between ethics and human nature. Lies are inseparable from life, whether in marriage or in any relationship. Lies are not inferior to loyalty. In this film, a lie can be interpreted as maintaining a relationship, and loyalty can be interpreted as the termination and rupture of a relationship. If you strongly despise lies, well, don't panic, and look at it after you've finished your loyalty early. In fact, the situation hasn't changed at all. It's just that between the two ends of lies and loyalty is a process of letting people know themselves.
After the film is over, I don't think anything has changed except my own ignorance. After all, people are too lonely. The great fear of loneliness can destroy everything, and death is nothing.
