Cries and Whispers (1972)

All February we’re discussing movies about WOMEN IN CRISIS and we find ourselves in some strange Swedish territory. A mansion with very red interiors and sad women in white. In this big house a woman suffers from cancer and her sisters, one frigid and the other the opposite, must come to terms with their familial relationships and their own mental state. Then you have Anna, whose bosom is ready for the weary. Will the poor suffering Agnes part from her troubled sisters or does she need to hang on just a little bit more? She will love her sisters even if she has to cross a threshold of mortality to do so. We’re speaking on our very first Ingmar Bergman for the show with his 1972 film “CRIES AND WHISPERS” and there’s some great tips on how to avoid consummating with your husband. Oh, look! It would appear that a Bergman Youtube has the movie if you would like to watch it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2rxJyl-twOM
