very nice. It expresses women's sensitivity, changeability, and spiritual fragility in a way that can be heard and seen. So much so that I kept clenching my hands tightly while watching, as if I was afraid that they would be caught in pain in the next second.

My sister breathed and roared loudly before she died: Why is no one here to help me! In fact, it is not the pain of this moment, but the pain of a lifetime that can only cry out through the pain of the body at the end of life. When Nanny Anna covered her eyes, she seemed to say, stop looking at the world.

A life without love torments the three sisters, who confront them with indifference and hypocrisy only to send their nerves to darker places.

As long as you step on the single-plank bridge of pain, there are abyss left and right, indifference and numbness, sensitivity, rejection or courtship are all abyss.

The only ray of light was Anna's nanny, whose labor had given her a burly body and a vulgar countenance. She didn't have the time and energy to explore the subtleties of emotion, so she loved plainly and tenderly. In the scene where her sister died in her arms, her huge body was almost like a medieval goddess, holy but illusory.

It seemed as if the ancient gods who lived by gathering and hunting had descended, giving this icy red house the only breath of life innate to human beings, different from the shouts and drizzle of nerve endings that had suffered for centuries. sound.

Don't let yourself peel off the protective shell and be as sensitive as a naked soul. Don't run away from human friendship, be indifferent, feel it all, and face it bravely. Although I know this movie is not about making women strong, it does share the most real things with you, and then maybe it can lead you out.

From the hopeless situation of all advance and retreat...

Cries & Whispers quotes

  • Anna: [reading Agnes' journal entry] "Wednesday, the third of September. A chill in the air tells of autumn's approach, but the days are still lovely and mild. My sisters, Karin and Maria, have come to see me. It's wonderful to be together again like in the old days. I'm feeling much better. We were even able to take a stroll together. It was a wonderful experience, especially for me, since I haven't been outdoors for so long. We suddenly began to laugh and run toward the old swing that we hadn't used since we were children. We sat in it like three good little sisters and Anna pushed us, slowly and gently. All my aches and pains were gone. The people I'm most fond of in all the world were with me. I could hear them chatting around me. I could feel the presence of their bodies, the warmth of their hands. I wanted to cling to that moment, and I thought, "Come what may, this is happiness. I cannot wish for anything better. Now, for a few minutes, I can experience perfection and I feel profoundly grateful to my life, which gives me so much."

  • David: Come here, Marie. Come. Look in the mirror. You're beautiful. Perhaps even more than when we were together. But you've changed and I want you to see how. Now your eyes cast quick, calculating, side glances. You used to look ahead straightforwardly, openly, without disguise. Your mouth has a slightly hungry, dissatisfied expression. It used to be so soft. Your complexion is pale now. You wear makeup. Your fine, wide brow has four lines above each eye now. You can't see them in this light, but you can in the bright of day. You know what caused those lines?

    Maria: No.

    David: Indifference. And this fine contour from your ear to your chin is no longer so finely drawn - the result of too much comfort and laziness. And there, by the bridge of your nose. Why do you sneer so often? You see that? You sneer too often. You see it? And look under your eyes. The sharp, scarcely noticeable wrinkles from your boredom and impatience.

    Maria: Can you really see all that there?

    David: No, but I feel it when you kiss me.

    Maria: I think you're joking with me. I know where you see it.

    David: Where?

    Maria: In yourself. Because you and I are so alike.

    David: You mean in our selfishness, coldness and indifference?
