"Ingmar Bergman is one of the best film directors, I think, because he's first and foremost a screenwriter, and one of the otherworldly qualities of Bergman's work is his extreme Simplicity, whether it's a play or an audition" - Robert McKee-Bergman likes to use the mirror to get directly into the soul and heart of the characters, prompting them to reveal the truth of their characters. His works are undoubtedly profound and dignified, based on reflection and questioning of Western religious views and divinity, but it may be difficult for us without a religious foundation to understand Bergman's thoughts, especially for young people. In other words, it’s hard to watch Bergman’s films. On the one hand, it is difficult to have a deep understanding of the gloomy philosophical and religious views at a young age. On the other hand, Bergman never explains. He expresses his thoughts in a dramatic way, so most of Bergman's fans are mature and knowledgeable middle-aged groups, who regard Bergman as a mentor in the spiritual world. PS: The selection of the soundtrack has always been extremely simple, and I can't forget the violin melody in "Wild Strawberry". The cello in this film is unified in the tone of the film.
