love

Rozella 2022-01-02 08:01:35

This film tells a pitiful and heart-wrenching love story in a village shrouded in a strong religious atmosphere.
Without intense sensational treatment, lack of tragic face, even the characters appear too plain. The story arises in love, love continues in the story, everything is so natural,

but the following story is not so plain. Life was shattered by a sudden disaster, and love was crying secretly. A man who has lost his consciousness of survival can only suffer from desire. A woman who loves her husband makes a

pitiful sacrifice in exchange for a miracle. All this is for love, only for the continuation of the love between him and her.
Love is always the victim of tragedy. If you lose your sorrow, maybe love is no longer love. Lars von Trier's unique love, there are no tears after seeing it, but sad blood is flowing in his heart

    Lars von Trier was a lunatic from start to finish, hard to spot.

    In a sense, it may also be the most touching and heart-wrenching "sacrifice".

Breaking the Waves quotes

  • 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.

  • Bess McNeill: Father, why aren't you with me?

    Bess McNeill: [as God] I am with you Bess. What do you want from me?

    Bess McNeill: [overjoyed] Where where you?

    Bess McNeill: [as God] Well don't you think I have other people who want to talk to me?

    Bess McNeill: Well of course. I hadn't thought of that.

    Bess McNeill: [as God] There's this silly little thing called Bess who keeps on wanting me to talk to her. And my work's been piling up a bit.

    Bess McNeill: But you're with me now?

    Bess McNeill: [as God] Of course I am, Bess. You know that.

    Bess McNeill: Thank you.
