[edit]

Is there an explanation of why it wasn't even nominated for Best Foreign Film? Ellsworth 20:14, 26 Jun 2004 (UTC)

According to this thread on the IMDB discussion board on C&W, Sweden did not submit it. I have not verified this

The link to Ingrid Bergman is wrong, as that's the famous actress from Casablanca and many other films. This Ingrid is actually Ingmar's wife (although Ingmar did work with the other Ingrid in Autumn Sonata). I'd fix it if I knew how, but I've only done very minor edits so far... 216.87.77.66 (talk) 01:13, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

[edit]
  • Wikilink "pudenda".
  • "Bergman and Ullmann were in a romantic relationship, and their daughter Linn Ullmann appears as Maria's daughter and Anna's daughter in the photograph" — Do you mean she appear as both those daughters? specify clearly if so.
  • No need to wikilink Linn Ullmann twice (Remove the link in the footnotes as you have already linked her in the "Casting" section).
  • "Academic Laura Hubner agreed with Varda Burstyn's view that Cries and Whispers depicts the suppression of women," — Burstyn is only mentioned once here. Where did Burstyn express his views? Do mention it in the article before stating about Hubner's opinions.
  • "with Anna's dead daughter apparently audible at one point" — when?
  • Try to add separate headings for the "Critical reception" section in terms of adding sub-headings like "Contemporary reviews" and "Reflective reviews".
    • Would just wind up with one-para sections and unwieldy TOC Ribbet32 (talk) 18:44, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
      • I cannot believe I'm seeing this. It is bad enough to see editors erroneously using the phrase "Reflective reviews" instead of "Retrospective reviews", but it is appalling to see a GA Reviewer recommending an editor deliberately make such a mistake. This is why using simple English over latin terms is preferable whenever possible. -- 109.76.202.17 (talk) 17:15, 10 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Add the years in which the films were made after each of the films you've mentioned (example: Persona (1966), Through a Glass Darkly (1961), Autumn Sonata (1978) etc).
  • Try to find the dates (date, month and year) of each of the award ceremonies (for consistency).
Source review

That's about it from me. Really good work on one of Bergman's most accomplished and deeply explored films, thematically speaking.  — Ssven2 Looking at you, kid 10:10, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
