Plot Summary:
|
Cries and Whispers stars Liv Ullman and Ingrid Thulin as the sisters of dying cancer patient Harriet Andersson. Both sisters have already had brushes with downfall: Ullman has had an affair which prompted her save's suicide, while Thulin has sustained wanted to do away with herself, at undivided side mutilating her own vagina faulty of self-hatred. As in behalf of Andersson, she has been in pain so long that she feels as though she's in the halfway point of death-in-get-up-and-go. With her two sisters wrapped up in their own problems, Harriet turns to her housekeeper Kari Sylwan for comfort;... Sylwan has herself suffered the ruin of a issue, and has developed a philosophical attitude towards impending doom. Possibly man of the most influential moments of the film -- when two of the sisters share the innermost thoughts that they'd kept from rhyme another for the treatment of so many years -- is filmed without benefit of dialogue, with the music of Chopin (enhanced by cinematographer Sven Nykvist's carefully selected camera angles) speaking for the ladies. While Cries and Whispers only won the Oscar in favour of cinematography, the film did hugely fortunately for itself in cosmopolitan awards contests.~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Inspiration
