But some people can't walk because their minds are too heavy

Well, although the heretics and the uneducated Chinese have exploded the atomic bomb, we have made a solemn promise to the world that we will not use nuclear weapons first, nor will we use nuclear strikes against non-nuclear countries. Mr. Jonah may die a bit.… The ferryman gets lost by himself, and the leader gets lost by himself. But what can be done? The priest ended up continuing Mass in the empty church. Has his confusion been resolved? God knows. Bergman's father is a Lutheran pastor, and the core of Lutheranism is "justification by faith", but his son, because of the tense father-son relationship, "converted his doubts" to God. He is a true Christian who has never changed his mind. In fact, the core of any belief is "belief", or in the words of unbelievers, it is "belief in superstition", superstition. So some people say that an illiterate old woman may be more devout than a high-ranking monk. Man was not strong enough, so he created God and converted to him. Although three steps and two steps are heaven, some people can't walk because they are too overwhelmed.

    The sparse narrative creates a lot of breath. Watching this movie is like reading your own diary, with no origin and no whereabouts, but it seems that you are in it, and the long monologue facing the camera is very moving, I think this It is a technique that can only be used in Western literary films. It is difficult to trust such performances in China. The relaxation of language adapts to the atmosphere of a film. Unlike Chinese, which is very strong, it is necessary to rely on silence to create breathing space.

    [80%] The second part of the trilogy continues to uphold the theme of God's Silence very well. However, this time Bergman simplified the play even more, removed the inconvenience of understanding caused by various plot and image symbolism, and echoed "Still in the Mirror" in many places, all of which made the film look like Like the first "instruction" or "after reading". The roaring creek next to the suicidal person, the restlessness of the train passing by, masking the silence, I like the wonderful sound treatment. The character setting of the pastor was revealed in the third act of the film: like Jesus two thousand years ago, although his heart was occupied by doubts and denials, he was still forced to spread the doctrine of love that he could not even believe in himself. As the title of the film, the light of winter symbolizes God, although bright, but pale and cold, and as always silent.

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.
