Film Analysis Wild Strawberries - 1797 Words

â€Å"Film as dream, film as music. No art passes our conscience in the way that film does, and goes directly into our feelings, deep down into the dark rooms of our souls† (Ingmar Bergman). Ingmar Bergman’s fascination with the subconscious and dreams as they delve deep into one’s consciousness is evident in his work. To Bergman, cinema is quintessentially an alternate reality in which dreams can have a physical manifestation. The flexibility of cinema allows for Bergman to evoke dream-like qualities in his films. His films are dream-like in the sense that they take both the character and the viewer into a seemly different world that transcends regular notions of time and space.

The purpose of this seems to say that one’s identity is hidden behind a mask Lastly, Isak sees a fune ral hearse come down the road. It gets tangled in a lamp post before finally knocking the casket off. The cadaver falls out due to the struggle. As Isak peers closer to it, the deceased’s hand grabs hold of him and forcefully draws him closer. The dream ends with the cadaver seemingly merging into one with Isak. This particular sequence was deeply influenced by Bergman’s love for Victor Sjostrom’s film The Phantom Carriage. The funeral hearse with no coachman recalls death driving a funeral hearse in The Phantom Carriage. This idea of death in this nightmare spurs viewers to contemplate what it means to live as if they are dead and who they are as they go about life. This dream in particular reveals to the viewer as Isak is dead inside as the cadaver that holds a vice-like grip on him is none other than himself. The cadaver represents who he has become. The occurrences in this nightmare act as a catalyst for Isak’s transformation. Upon waking up in the middle of the night due to this nightmare, Isak changes his plans for the day drastically. Isak was to fly from Stockholm to Lund in order to receive a prestigious medical award from his alma mater. However, he nixes this plan and decides to drive instead. Had it not been for this nightmare, Isak would not haveShow MoreRe latedAbstract. Does Organic Really Matter?
