wild strawberries

Plot Outline:After living a life marked by coldness, an aging professor is forced to confront the emptiness of his existence।

this is the second bergman movie i have seen,the first one being the seventh seal.i didn't like that much but this is beautiful.bergman tells us sweet things in life, the loves and honors, grow wild and uncontrollable. Often the basket gets spilled before they reach us. But in the end, enough of them do reach our lips to make it all worthwhile. The film is a journey from Borg's bitterness about the "strawberries" in his life that have been spilled, stolen, or otherwise lost to acceptance and appreciation of those he has received. There are no earthshaking discoveries or revelations for Borg. Nothing much changes, except for Borg's own awareness. All of the change is in terms of a subtle shift in perspective and understanding. But that change is enough to transform his life from the nightmare at the start of the movie to the sweet dream at the end.8/10
