If you loved Brink of Life, try Cries and Whispers

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Ingmar Bergman, and they both carry the foreign gem, gut punch, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Brink of Life, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Cries and Whispers is

Agnes wastes away while her sisters drown in self-pity. Their love surfaces only when it’s too late. A chamber trio plays the emotions.
