Okay, glad you replied with this. Was wondering which one I should watch.

It is my favorite at this point of my Bergman journey.
I had a similar reaction to Persona. Perhaps I should do the same.
Experienced Cries and Whispers a few months ago. Stunningly beautiful use of crimson and a gut-wrenching story. TY for the other two recommendations.
Incredible film. I found it quite shocking. It lingers in my head.
That was an unexpectedly good film. I need to put it on my rewatch list.
My gawd, I felt this!
Currently watching The Seventh Seal (1957) - Ingmar Bergman. Another “what took me so long?”
Bergman favorites: Hour of the Wolf, Autumn Sonata, The Virgin Spring.
Although one of these choices is rather dubious (me, of course 🤪), can attest to following all others. Thanks, @craigwallwork.bsky.social
If don't know Craig as a horror author, he's got new book, INSTRUCTION MANUAL TO BEING A VAMPIRE, out 6/9/26, just in time for summer reading list!

So creepy. I loved it!
A go to devil flick. I do love a Roger Allam performance 🦛. Finally saw Phantasm — conjured up quite a cool atmosphere. What a very different type of family show 🫠.

But it’s a great one! Adding.
And I love The Hunger. It’s due for a rewatch.
I can tell that I’m going to like these two films very much. TY!
Yes! I added Portrait… TY.
I haven’t Les Diaboliques. Added it to the list and to my watchlist.
Absolutely!
Films designed for two actresses that have extraordinary chemistry together on film, whether it was intended or not 🎞️ What other films should I add?

The film score by Duke Ellington is a must mention 🤌
A work of art!
one day you walked out of Blockbuster for the very last time and you never even knew it
Freaking love Giant. It ticks all the boxes.
The Maids is twisted and brilliant ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (prompted me to start a new list on Letterboxd); Resurrection is visually breath-taking; had high expectations for FMSB, but not disappointed; American Movie now makes me pronounce Coven differently.
