If a friend tells you: Not long ago, I saw a person who looks exactly like you, no matter how you look at it, even the expression of the speech is very similar. Did you just laugh it off, or ask if there really are people who look like this. In fact, calm down and think that everyone in the world will always have some secret similarities, and it is not worth making a fuss at all. But if you can see yourself from outsiders, even if you see a certain point of yourself from outsiders so inadvertently, your feelings will definitely be different. Treat others as your mirror, no need for detailed research, just a cursory scan, maybe You will really find your own strangeness, which is still in the mirror. After examining and thinking, you may become a shadow in your life and benefit a lot.
Bergman has a movie called "Still in the Mirror". This is one of Bergman's planned trilogy at the time, the other two being "Winter Light" and "Silence." The director explained in 1963 that the three films were dealing with a process of reduction. "Still in the Mirror" is the conviction of conquest; "Winter Light" is the conviction of perspective; "Silence" is the silence of God and the negative residual impression. So these three films together make up his trilogy.
Bergman said this because the main driving force behind the creation of "Still in the Mirror" was his marriage with Kabila Retti, who co-created this work. They are fascinated by each other and talk about everything, but in real life, they can't find a common language. Therefore, Bergman needs to clarify the relationship between reality and ideals with her, and understand himself from the perception of the other party. They had met through correspondence, and the other party's literary expression was so strong that it gave Bergman a breather. Bergman learned a lot about music from it, and she also helped him explore the form of chamber drama, which was well translated into film without any boundaries. So the script, originally called "Wallpaper", was renamed "Still in the Mirror". Bergman desperately wanted to express a very simple philosophy: God is love, and love is God; those who are surrounded by love are surrounded by God. surrounded by people. So he wrote: "Conquer the Faith". The distance between the distance and the near distance allows Bergman to comprehend a profound creative wisdom.
Although some people don't like Bergman's films very much, some people say that his films are good but not good. It depends on which angle to look at. If you just blindly pursue good-looking, you will misunderstand the master's creative motives; if you can savor it carefully, you will want to see it after reading it. Enduring, enough to have a source of taste. The special growth environment and cultural heritage have gradually made the Swedish film master's status in the world film circle. Among them, "Autumn Sonata", which was filmed in 1977, is a movie worth pondering, although his films such as "The Seventh Seal", "Virgin Spring", "Wild Strawberry", "Shouting and Whispering" are more famous than him. much more.
"Autumn Sonata" was also criticized at the time, but the more indulgent it is, the more fragrant it is, the more delicate, beautiful and profound the film language is, which clearly constitutes Bergman's consistent creative style. Although Bergman himself said that making the film was a very unpleasant experience. Ingrid Bergman, who starred in the heroine, was also a Swede. At this time, she was suffering from cancer and died in 1982. "Autumn Sonata" became her last masterpiece that shines in the international film circle. You must know that Bergman and Bergman have long wanted to make a movie together. They have been waiting for the opportunity. What I didn't expect is that they have waited so long... What are they waiting for? In fact, life has long been integrated into the vagueness and clarity, so we have to let it go.
