Compared with the previous one, I understand many

characters better:
Pastor
, Pastor, Girlfriend ,
Fisherman
, Fisherman, Wife,
Assistant
, Organist.

Plot:
1. The pastor was praying. After the service, the fisherman and the fisherman came to him and told him about the confusion of God.
2. The priest and the fisherman performed Communicate, show their views on God, and the fisherman has a nervous breakdown and commits suicide 3. The pastor
communicates with his girlfriend, explaining his contempt for the material girlfriend Betrayed
by people, and finally betrayed by God, God's silence makes people hopeless Correct, purely coincidental) 1. The pastor's girlfriend represents an atheist, and she has a confirmed attitude that as long as God doesn't appear to her, she doesn't think God exists. As a result, she can only indulge in material life, indulge in the trivialities of life. 2. The fisherman represents a believer. He has no way to believe that God exists. He has a falsification attitude. As long as there is no way to falsify it, he believes in the existence of God, and he has been trying to prove the existence of God. In the end, there was no way to prove it, but a counter-example was found, and the inner system collapsed, and finally committed suicide. 3. A pastor represents a deism, and his belief in God is not so much his belief in God as he is in his own power. 4. The organist represents the ignorant of God. Instead of believing in God, it is better to let the world paralyze himself and use wine to solve his own life problems: 1. Why is the image of the assistant so bad? And why did the pastor reject him earlier? → Contrasting beauty through ugliness? The ugliness on the outside and the piety on the inside of the assistant are in contrast to the sunny and wretched heart of the pastor?










2. Why do fisherman couples get pregnant? What is her attitude toward God? →Indifference and neglect of God, God has no place in her life
3. What is the despair of the fisherman?

Big question:
1. What is the director's attitude towards God? → Preliminary guess, the pastor should be the protagonist, and the director's attitude should be consistent with the pastor, that is, God exists, but it is the imagination of people's heart → Then there will be a question, why is the pastor still suffering? If the director prefers him, then he should be very happy.

    The character’s intensity of reflection is astonishing, and the narrative is concise and clear. Gannell and Ingrid have taken the “sense of distance” into place, preaching to “them” from the beginning to convincing themselves at the end, borrowing the emotional gains and losses of men and women, and the ultimate crucifixion of Christ The perplexed contradiction drenched the tragic core performance of the trust crisis between people. The pastor's self-forced love of faith finally became colder and paler, just like the setting sun in winter without a trace of humanity. Screen rewatch

    Bergman's films are not films that ordinary people can see on a daily basis. He may no longer regard film as art or work, he may have regarded film as his religion. Compared with "Still in the Mirror", there is already a sense of powerlessness for the piety of Christ. It is said that the power of religion in the trilogy is getting smaller and smaller, and the power of love is getting bigger and bigger. I look forward to "Silence".

Winter Light quotes

  • Tomas Ericsson, Pastor: I was a seaman's pastor in Lisbon, during the Spanish Civil War. I refused to accept reality. My God and I resided in an organized world where everything made sense. You see, I'm no good as a clergyman. I put my faith in an improbable and private image of a fatherly god. One who loved mankind, of course, but me most of all. Do you see, Jonas, what a monstrous mistake I made?

  • Tomas Ericsson, Pastor: An ignorant, spoiled and anxious wretch makes a rotten clergyman.
