Cries and Whispers / Viskningar Och Rop (1972 Ingmar Bergman)

Hurry up and die, already! Fade to red. The images are a joy to behold.

Emotionally bleak, simple yet concentrated study of a family group of unsympathetic characters that seem specific to Bergman (or, perhaps, to Sweden?) Doesn't reverberate much beyond the viewing.
