CC Bergman suit, 8.1+, added to nearly 8.2 at the end.
The doubts about belief and the existence of God are further amplified in the second part of the trilogy, and the church, as the main place of the plot, reflects the shaking of the foundation from the mentality.
1. When the hymn was sung at the beginning, several pilgrims (including the organist) had a casual look of all beings, and directly asked the question, is the worship a mere formality, or is it really pious?
2. Thomas as a priest (clergy) also offered doubts about the faith/silence of God
3. Marta and Thomas, the conflict between female and male beliefs (discussing gods and gods), are disturbed under the theme of love. Thomas' reminiscence of his wife made him show intolerant attitude towards Marta who loves him. Therefore, God has always advocated equality for all and loving your enemies. Where is such tolerance reflected? For Thomas, the deeper tragedy is that he has lost (or deliberately dared not face) the ability to love. What is the value of such a belief that cannot bring people the power of love?
4. The biggest blow to the pastor is that when Jonas came to talk, the pastor told his mental anguish, so the inability to save other people's power is almost the last one that crushed Jonas indirectly (even the most direct cruelty). straw. Is the pastor's broken heart enough to prove: Is God's presence and absence exactly the same?
5. Finally Frovik's story, again echoing Jonas' suicide and Marta's denial of courtship.
Begins with the (church) bell, ends with the bell, things are impermanent, and reincarnation spares who, but listen, the surging sound of the lake is still surging beside the dead Jonas (drowned out the words of the people, suggesting that God's power), is this not a proof of God's presence! So in the end, maybe Marta will really let go of what she loves (feelings for Thomas) and find sustenance, but hesitantly but must walk firmly towards God's embrace.
The photography is still excellent but not overwhelming, and the content of Marta's letter is read directly into the camera through close-up (creative!), handing God's judgment to the viewer, and at the same time proving that there is no omniscient God in the story. .
