Others are hell

Bergman's films are very personal. His films expressed his heart, such as the lack of fatherly love when he was young, which was expressed in his "Wild Strawberry". He has also been discussing the issue of religious beliefs. In the film, there are very few scenes, and most of the other off-screen scenes are expressed through the characters' words. For example, in "Masquerade", the nurse and the actress are always indoors, but in the audience's imagination, there are naked men and women on the sea and beach.
If you don't know Bergman, you're not in a good mood, and watching his movies is exhausting and a little lethargic. "Still in the Mirror" Everyone is looking at themselves in front of the mirror. There are thousands of knots in their hearts and they can't break free, so they make excuses to escape.
Everyone has psychological problems, no one can live a perfect life, no one has far-sighted, and there must be near-term worries. So, when you are chasing fame and fortune in the flashy, look back and pay attention to your heart, you don’t care and no one cares. Others are hell.

    We encircle ourselves in circles, excluding everything that doesn't fit the rules of our game. Every time the circle is broken by reality, the game becomes absurd and meaningless. Then we draw a circle again to protect ourselves.

    "I don't know if love proves the existence of God or if love itself is God". Bergman tells a philosophical story in which artistic creation and real life, as well as religion and ethics, are intertwined with his favorite artistic expression, which is full of speculation. Harriet's performance is full of tension and instantly thinks of Adjani in "Possessed". The art film in memory of the lines and photography is enlightened and defined by Bergman.

Through a Glass Darkly quotes

  • David: We draw a magic circle and shut out everything that doesn't agree with our secret games. Each time life breaks the circle, the games turn grey and ridiculous. Then we draw a new circle and build a new defense.

    Karin: Poor little daddy.

    David: Yes, poor little daddy, forced to live in reality.
