Three Sisters: Sibling Knots in Ingmar Bergman's Cries and Whispers

Pages 481-486 | Published online: 25 Jun 2009
 

Notes

1“The ‘cries’ for help express the yearning for closeness and attachment, for intimacy. The ‘whispers’ are the torment of the frustrated longings, the hovering unattainable fulfillment” (CitationSklarew 1987, p. 175).

2A similar scene can be found in Michael Haneke's La pianiste [The Piano Teacher] (2001), where sexually repressed musician Erika (Isabelle Huppert) inserts a razor blade inside her vagina (see Kimble Wrye's article, this issue).
