Résumés(1)
Adapted from Ingmar Bergman's 1973 Swedish classic, and starring Oscar Isaac and Jessica Chastain, Scenes from a Marriage re-examines the show's iconic depiction of love, hatred, desire, monogamy, marriage, and divorce through the lens of a contemporary American couple. (HBO Europe)
Critiques (3)
A completely equal rival to Bergman's original. It cleverly quotes and simultaneously updates the emotional dynamics of the couple, problematizing male and female roles and tossing around motivations and key quotes. The result is a completely new, more relevant view of marriage for today. Leaving used to be too difficult, now it's too easy. The constellation changes, the dark house in the middle of the night remains. Chastain and Isaac are an absolutely riveting pair. Levi has created a sultry microcosm, brimming with meanings and valences that you can talk about as long as you like. Yet you will always end up talking about yourself. Very Bergman-esque.

A unique achievement. A minimalist, evocative, authentic probe into the heart of a toxic relationship, the distorted emotions and warped personal values of the two leads. Scenes from a Marriage is not only notable for its naturalistically staged emotional scenes and impassioned dialogue, but above all for the fact that it tactfully and subtly takes neither side of the protagonists. Both of them are naked (sometimes literally) in front of the camera, fully displaying their emotional fragility and anger, tears and laughter, love and hate. From a third-person perspective, disarmingly rewarding and true to life. Sometimes it's extremely difficult to "just let go" and Hagai Levi's miniseries tells that story as exquisitely as few. Emotional hell to the sound of monotonous music and static shots of the snowy front yard. Piece of art.

La matière traitée exige un jeu d'acteur parfaitement précis et sans faute. Or, Jessica Chastain est parfaite et je me réjouissais déjà dès le moment où j'ai appris qu'elle jouait dans cette nouvelle adaptation du classique de Bergman. Par contre, j’avais un doute par rapport à Oscar Isaac, bien que les deux acteurs fissent la paire depuis A Most Violent Year. Mais je m’étais trompé à son sujet, car pour finir, il est excellent. C’est une série que je recommande, mais à condition d’être en pleine forme étant donné que tout se passe dans les dialogues et qu’elle exige la plus grande concentration.
