      Karin: Women should talk to each other more openly and more often. We should share our experiences and comfort each other. We shouldn't be affected by men's silly need for prestige and secrecy.

    Seldom seen Bergman jewel
    See it. Lyrical, beautifully shot, quietly hilarious in spots, this film is seldom screened. Perhaps more than his better-known works, this film showcases Bergman's love of women. Bjork, Dahlbeck and especially Nilsson are adoringly photographed; this is passionate young Bergman. A delight.
