Cries and Whispers

Ingmar Bergman was known for his black and white photography for a while, but perhaps his most triumphant foray into colour is Cries and Whispers. Exploring the heavy uses of black, white, and red, cinematographer Sven Nykvist had his work cut out for him. He still persevered, rendering this domestic drama into a monochromatic illustration of apparitions, blood, and the overhanging fear of death.
