    While the actors are preparing for their performance, the manager says to Jof (according to English subtitles) “A fool like you can play the human soul.” That really is his role throughout the whole film.

      Same. The movie deals with subjects all of us thought at some point, and there are characters that represent the different views of it we all heard at least once. At the same time, it doesn't try to force an answer. It has something for everyone. It feels authentic, and considering Bergman himself struggled with the subject, it's not surprising why.

    I really love the fact that this is your first video on this channel, yet the editing, the pacing and the script of the video are just so spot on. I just bought the Ingmar Bergman collection from criterion and I am slowly discovering his movies, but I can say that each of his movies I have seen so far have deeply changed me. Great pick!

    After decades of shunning Bergman because I thought his work to be too grim and intellectual, I finally broke down and watched The Seventh Seal recently. This video went along way toward explaining a film that raised many questions, but left the answers to the viewer. Thanks for making it.

      I know what you mean. I also keep myself from watching many movies in fears that I might not be ready to fully understand them or that we won’t be able to make sense of the picture, at all. For instance , for years I’m keeping myself from watching Tarkovsky, but I decided I must do it already. Mostly because we have to go into a movie already knowing that it will always be impossible to have all of the answers to it. Because if we could have it, after watching, then it wouldn’t be a worthy movie. We have to experience the movie with our guts, the first time. The rationalizing must always come after. I’m also not looking to give any answers about the questions those movies make. Rather than simply trying to start and get the conversation about the movies going. And that is why I appreciate your comment so much. It really inspires me to keep on making videos. So that we can begin to talk about those movies. Cheers, man. Thank you for taking the time to write.

    Just watched this film for the first time and this is the first commentary I've seen since, and the perspetives and points raised here are very much appreciated. I come away seeing that Jof is the most gainful character in this story because he's both a believer and he's someone who is kind and generous. Even if wholly deluded, he is the happiest of all the story's characters, and he does everything right by everyone he meets. Jof gave Block the best resolution to his search for meaning he could hope to find.

      I'm very glad to hear that these thought resonated with you. Upon reading the comments and different views on this movie, that people shared after watching the video, I came to realize, through other people's insights, that the mother (jof's wife), and the family they built together, also provide the knight with some comfort and some meaning.

    Hey really nice job with this video essay. I just watched this film for maybe the fourth or fifth time in my life and I think it has taken on extra weight both as I've gotten older and as we are now navigating this pandemic. One piece of dialogue that really supports a life-affirming perspective is when Antonius speaks about his reprieve from death as a chance for one last meaningful deed. Even in the face of calamity, each day above ground is an opportunity to cease our "futile wandering" and imbue new meaning into our lives. Such a great film.

    This is a very thoughtful analysis of the film. To me the philisophical/existential matter that always strikes me about this film, and leaves me asking questions is the very absurdity of proposing a game of chess against death in the first place, knowing that it is the ONLY impossible match. God may or my not exist, and this consideration is what tortures Von Sydow's character throughout the film....however, death is undeniable, and in his challenge to the grim reaper, he is engaging in an exercise in futility.

      The way I see it, you can draw direct parallels with our present day society. How is the artist perceived in general, by large crowds? Are the majority of people attending the cinemas looking for Lars von Trier latest release? Does Michael Haneke get big box offices? Is the general public interested in watching Ken Loach, Woody Allen, Kiarostami, or do they prefer The Avengers? It takes a sensibility, an education, a cultural formation to access those artists's works - many of whom are perceived as depraved, nasty, and imoral to the general public, specially in times of obscurantism - be it the Middle Ages or our present late capitalist society with its alienation process. sensibilityaccessprivilege, which I have been fortunate to get. Make no mistake, the fact that the masses and the large majority of people cannot access such works, and because of that, lack the means to understand it, and because of that, sometimes, come to hate it, is no accident. In fact, it is a though out way of maintaining the status quo. But, anyway, I really appreciate the point you brought up, because I hadn't consider it before, and I had to give It some thought in order to understand and make sense of it too. Appreciate it, man.

      @@theabsentartist4912 the artist is usually too abstract for the general population, and thus appears incoherent. This is actually okay because many people do not need/wish to be bombarded with constant existential dread, or other difficult concepts. Imagine if that was status quo, we’d all be in our rooms pacing about anxiously, trying to parse out complex abstractions in agony, such is the burden of the artist. But if the artists are in alignment with the highest principals, this will be filtered down in entertainment to more tangible levels that all can comprehend without dissonance, and the society is healthy.
      You are correct though, the stuff that matters happens at the top and is determined by the values held by such people. Everything filters down, so if the values at the top are centered on greed or manipulation or any self-edifying principal, when it gets to the bottom, the society gets sick. Which is what we are now.

    The commentary in this video, beginning at 8:40, states that it is only in the presence of Jof that the Knight finds peace. The writer there is stretching to support an idea about the importance of ‘the artist’ exemplified by Jof. In fact, earlier, when Mia told the Knight that Jof was her husband, Antonius responded with something almost dismissive like, “Oh, him”.
    How unfortunate, that in such a bias, the commentary misses the obvious, that it is Mia’s gentle, caring and generous presence in which Antonius is peaceful, and it is after his conversation with Mia, and after her generosity with strawberries and milk, that he decides to ‘throw’ the Chess game, distracting Death, so that Mia, Jof and the baby can escape.

    • @charlesbronson8112
      @charlesbronson8112 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think it is probably because of knight and artist as being active roles. Mia is more of a given, more simple and passive but no less important. She provides the ground for Jof to reach his visions and for the knight to realize it. And certainly we cannot forget the child, Mikael is at the center of all of this. It is only in the child that Jof reaches his vision of the perfect union between heaven and earth, i.e. vision of Jesus and Mary.

      "Words, words, words" - Hamlet to Polonius.
      I see what you mean, and I believe you do have a point there, just like Hamlet points out the meaningless efforts of our vocabulary in trying to capture the essence of life and all its things, but ultimately failing, for the essence of things cannot be encapsulated by words. Still, Woody Allen does evoke a ton of emotions and conveys plenty of meaning thru his movies and even thru his dialogues. Regardless of how vain that effort to convey meaning through words might be, it is still worth the shot, as I understand.

    In Islam a persons life on earth is a fleeting moment, a blink of an eye… ‘And this worldly life is not but diversion and amusement…’ in essence everything has been created to exalt Allah.. ‘And there is not a thing that it exalts Allah by his praise, but you do not understand their exalting’… thats why birds sing at dawn, wolves howl at the moon and trees bend in the wind… the real ‘life’ is in the hereafter where those who did not believe in Allah and the judgement day will be led to hell for eternity while the true believers, whether they are Muslim, Jewish, Christian or any other religion, will live in gardens below which rivers of pure water, milk, honey and non intoxicating wine flow.. that is the final attainment .. 🤔

      You people give actual atheists a bad name, how can a person genuinely believe they are superior to others because they don't believe in religion.
      You need to educate yourself.

    Unfortunately, the narrator does not give a very convincing argument for the meaning of the movie. It is a great movie. It is not about secular humanistic tribal worth as an end. Far far from it. It is a man's (not man's) honest search for God. He has let his past govern his future, to such a point he puts his own spiritual eyes out. He has no trouble seeing death, who he has espoused for a number of years, but cannot see God, whom he has rejected. Now he mourns his fading life and seeks God's presence. Yet he cannot find him because he relies on gnostic revelation to reveal a man behind the curtain. Also, did he ever ask forgiveness in the movie? That is core to communing with God.

      The saddest part about having religious/supernatural beliefs is that people can't accept this reality and they're always HOPING for a "better" version of life. It's almost as if this life is just practice. 😬🙄

    That's what we all want, a guarantee, that God exists, but there isn't one, and no guarantees God doesn't exists, no guarantees in life either, no guarantees that my choices are the right choices, hence the need for that unspeakable, dirty word=Faith.
