Double Feature: 40th Anniversary! CRIES AND WHISPERS (VISKNIGAR OCH ROP), 1972, Janus Films, 106 min. Dir. Ingmar Bergman. Amid the blood-red backgrounds of a turn-of-the-century mansion and the atmosphere of a dream, Liv Ullmann and Ingrid Thulin keep a death watch over spinster sister Harriet Andersson, while flashbacks depict the disappointed lives, meaningless marriages and sisterly conflicts, with a final moving image suggesting what has been lost. [35mm]

AUTUMN SONATA (HOSTSONATEN),1978, Janus Films, 92 min. In a long-planned collaboration with director Ingmar Bergman (ironically no relation), actress Ingrid Bergman (CASABLANCA) returned to Swedish cinema after 40 years to play a concert pianist coming home to an anguished reunion with neglected daughter Liv Ullmann. Bergman was nominated for an Oscar for her performance, in what turned out to be her last feature film role. [35mm]
