I can't say I enjoyed this as much as Bergman's "Black" films, though the casting is fantastic. Considered a comedy, but not a burst-out-laughing kind - more cerebral with some slapstick mixed in for good measure.

A razor sharp and witty comedy that still manages to fit in some of Bergman's trademark angst and make it work wonderfully.
