Review of Smiles of a Summer Night (1955) by Mark S — 25 Jun 2013
Probably Bergman's best comedy, but I prefer when he covers the more dramatic. The convoluted plot is handled with the lightest of touches and I can see how this has influenced other films (namely Woody Allen's A Midsummer Night's Sex Comedy), but for all of its wit I can't subscribe to it being even one of Ingmar's greatest films, let alone one of the greatest films of all time.
