Too much tears.
What do you say? Disillusionment, I suppose?
I can not see this!
He hold tight to his father, being the same gender.( which is a constructive failure in my eyes, as most of the kids would hold to their mothers, but please they are derogatives )
He is the adult, while his parents are the kids.
That is a beautiful touch.
Sica must have suffered as a kid, to put this into such a light..

PS: Read Bergmas Autobiography!

Well, there's a reason he clung to his father, no?
SPOILER
He KNEW about his mother's infidelity.
I'll try and get to Bergman's bio but it has to wait for me to finish ploughing through Tristram Shandy (hilarious but very non-translatable), a book on European painting, a short story collection of Borges, Joseph Andrews, and... finally, it.

    Sterne is as clever a being as I've ever read and, more rarely, erudite and wise. On top of all that, he's knee-slappingly hilarious, as well.
    I'd rather share a glass of beer with him than just about anyone else, with Borges and Henry Fielding rounding out the group...

      Well o well after trying to see the film, and stopping in the middle of it, boringly so, And then there was this book that I have had contact a long long time ago, so I decide to order it and after that give another go to the film.
      Am I not courageous?
      
      Or a good Rhum! I once bought a bottle in Geneva, 1890 or so, boy that was the revelatiion of the decade.
