Review of Cries and Whispers (1972) by Joshua J — 30 Aug 2007
I saw this in college long before most of you were born. The stunning visuals quickly take you past the tough subject matter to a place somewhere in your heart. YOu know that little ladder than runs from in your mind down to your heart? It is like you are sitting on a step with your brain above and below is your heart.
YOu do not feel trapped in this film but on pauses. The most powerful visuals I have ever seen in film thanks to Ignmar's champion irector and cinematographer Sven Nykvist has died at the age of 83.
A year after Igmar. Sven Nykvist won two Academy Awards, for Cries and Whispers in 1972 and for Fanny & Alexander in 1982".
