Eric Rohmer

It is worth pondering about a man's attitude towards two different women. The poet said: If I like you, don't fall in love with me easily, let me change my love for you from a ripple to a long-awaited storm, and then promise me. Tao and I looked at each other and smiled: Why do men owe so much?

Apart from the ones mentioned above, what else? Among them, the view of "faith" in marriage is particularly critical.

00:57:59,819 --> 00:58:51,526

Maud: you'd marry her on the spot and swear eternal fidelity.

Louis: Absolutely.

Maud: - You sure you'd be faithful?

Louis: - Of course.

Maud: - What if she was unfaithful?

Louis: - If she loved me, she'd be faithful.

Maud: - Love isn't eternal.

Louis: - My sort of love is.

Maud: If there's one thing I can't understand, it's infidelity.

Louis: If only out of self-regard, I couldn't go back on my word.

Louis: When I take a wife, my love will stand the test of time.

Louis: If I stopped loving her. I'd despise myself.

Maud: - You're right. That's self-regard.

Louis: - I said it might be.

Maud: Not "might be." It is. So you don't allow for divorce?

Maud: So you damn me outright.

Louis: Not at all. You're not a Catholic.

I think this sentence means praising Catholicism.

Because the woman said you won't get a divorce?

Love doesn't last long.

The man only said this, but the woman repeatedly stressed that she was atheist

I agree with the statement that atheism is also a religion

I also like what the male protagonist said, I stand by my beliefs but I respect other religions

He sarcastically questioned him because he was Catholic and in his bones he was proud to be Catholic

It's interesting to see him questioning his religion in his films

He wants to improve him not to abandon him

    B+/ The one with the most difficulty in controlling the overall structure so far, "One Night", as a wonderful concept of divergent time, has been handled in an orderly manner without being disturbed.

    The third of "Six Moral Stories": The moral dilemma created by the chaotic men and women at the beginning of the film is easy to associate with the probability theory of mathematics, but the question of choosing A or B is cut layer by layer, and it is cryptic. Shows such a complex relationship between men and women. At the end, the two have their own ghosts, the heroine threw the sand out, and the family ran to the sea-if morality has fallen into an unbreakable deadlock, is there a better way than to forget it?

My Night at Maud's quotes

  • Jean-Louis: As a Christian I say it's evil not to acknowledge what is good.

  • Jean-Louis: Religion adds to love, but love adds to religion, also.
