Free Friday Film Screening: CRIES AND WHISPERS January 11, 2008

CINSSU's Spring Season opener! Ingmar Bergman's 1972 masterpiece.

Cries and Whispers (or Viskningar och rop) features a family drama taking place in a mansion in the late 1800's. Karin and Maria watch over their sister Agnes' sickbed together with the servant Anna. Through flashbacks the lives of both sisters are described, which are full of lies, deceit, callousness, self despise, guilt and forbidden love.

"Bergman never made another film this painful. To see it is to touch the extremes of human feeling. It is so personal, so penetrating of privacy, we almost want to look away." - Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

Nominated for 5 Academy Awards including Best Picture and Best Director. One of the few chances you will get to see this amazing film on the big screen. Shown for FREE, in a great 35mm print! Part of CINSSU's Free Friday Film series.
