REFLECTION
Thesaurus: SENDING BACK, IMAGE, INDICATION, SLUR, THOUGHT, OPINION.
There is a scene in an old Ingmar Bergmann film from 1968 - Hour of the Wolf - where Max von Sydow’s character, Johann, a painter, makes his pregnant wife Alma (Liv Ulman) sit quietly while allowing a single minute to pass. It is the hour just before dawn. Johan stares at his watch as the seconds tick away amidst the quiet at a pace that becomes disturbing.
This scene has stayed strong in my memory all of these years.
Time..........huh? What? When? We were, are, will be?
