"At a turn-of-the-century midsummer's night house party the eight main characters resolve themselves into four couples through a continually shifting kaleidoscope in which the changing relationships embody different attitudes to love. Stylisation of gesture, movement and composition is both gracefully balletic and atmospherically operatic, Mozartian in the balancing of sympathy and irony. Stylistically the film reflects Bergman's acknowledged discovery of Japanese director Mizoguchi's atmospheric long shots. He was not particularly interested in psychological plausibility in providing explanation of the conditions that might make lasting love possible, a compromise between nature and social convention. Recalling Stiller's Erotikon (1921), Bergman's tragi-comedy has been compared with Renoir's even more Mozartian La Regle du Jeu and Ophuls' bitter-sweet La Ronde."
"After fifteen films that received mostly local acclaim, the 1955 comedy Smiles of a summer night (sommarnattens leende) at last ushered in an international audience for Ingmar Bergman. In turn-of-the-century Sweden, four men and four women attempt to navigate the laws of attraction. During a weekend in the country, the women collude to force the men's hands in matters of the heart, exposing their pretensions and insecurities along the way. Chock-full of flirtatious propositions and sharp witticisms delivered by such Swedish screen legends as Gunnar Björnstrand and Harriet Andersson, Smiles of a summer night is one of cinema's great erotic comedies."
