Strindberg wrote(REFERING TO A DREAM):'The characters are split,double,and multiple;they evaporate,crystallize,scatter,and converge.But a single consciousness holds sway over them all-that of the dreamer.'
This is a good way to describe Ingmar Bergman's CRIES AND WHISPERS,his most `expressionistic an Gothic curious film'.Everybody knows the plot,Bergman has been studied,cinephiles wrote many essays of his works.still Ingmar Bergman is now an almost `absent artist'.This says something of the current world .
This film made a huge impression on me,maybe because I grew up with three older sisters and my house was surrounded by women.I won't bored you with my review,I just want to say that my all time cinematic scene it's from this film.INGRID THULIN(who just died last week) suddenly leaves the claustrophobic room___Bergman's close up concentrates on her face and we see a choking expression, an exhale almost like the last breath of life has trespassed from her dying sister.her unforgettable face will stay with you for awhile .just like a ghost.
9/10
