Reflection on life_The meaning of love

One of the conscience trilogy directed by Lars von Trier, the
other two "Dog Town" and "Dancer in the Darkness" were also watched last year , and
I liked them very much!
Compared to the previous two films, the tone of this movie is obviously much lower.
It is also a big environment to render the whole plot.
From weddings to funerals! In one breath, we were tightly controlled by Lars von Trier
in this transition from joy to mania to sorrow . Looking back, each of the trilogy was unique. A fusion of the stage play of Dogtown. "Dancer in the Dark" is a fusion of musical theatre. It can be seen that the director's innovative intentions bring us a special feeling. Let's talk about love in movies. The director perfectly demonstrated the whole process of the birth of a living tragedy through the lens in his hand. The movie is very cinematic. It looked very real! Although this kind of love is a tragedy, perhaps such a tragedy will make more people think about the meaning of love and the value of life compared to those sweet and happy loves!

    The Dogme shooting method that constitutes the main body of the film focuses the lens on the "local", which is complex and changeable, which is the vision of human beings; the panoramic empty mirror inserted in the transition of each chapter is vast and fixed, which is the vision of God. The man and God shown by Von Trier in "Breaking the Waves" is actually very close to the relationship between man and God in our real world. It is He who makes miracles come, it is He who is sowing mercy, it is He who bestows unparalleled joy on people, but it is also He who punishes people without reason, forcing those who believe in them to go through that needless test and making them lose everything they cherish. God's plan is twisted. God's plan is never one that humans can comprehend. Von Trier told us this truth.

    I didn't think it looked good at first, and I hated Beth's neurotic performance, but the last half hour of the movie is walkable, and when you go into the story, you're no longer the third The viewer's vision, but the feeling of being closely connected with the story. So, in the end I was impressed. Love and Faith, the key words are

Breaking the Waves quotes

  • Bess McNeill: I don't understand what you're saying. How can you love a word? You cannot love words. You can't be in love with a word. You can only love another human being. That's perfection.

  • Judge: Listen man, you had the deceased in your care. The court would like to hear the medical facts.

    Dr. Richardson: If... if you'd, um... if you were to ask me again to write... um... the conclusion, then... instead of writing "neurotic" or, um, "psychotic" uh, I might... just, um... use a word like... "good".

    Judge: Good?

    Dr. Richardson: Yes.

    Judge: You wish the records of this court to state that, in your medical opinion, the deceased was suffering from being good?

    Judge: Perhaps this was the psychological defect that led her to her death!

    Judge: Is that what we shall write Doctor Richardson?

    Dr. Richardson: [pause] No. Of course not.
