"Smiles of a Summer Night" is easily one of Ingmar Bergman's most entertaining films and is probably the best film to begin one's studying of Bergman 101. It was the film that introduced the now legendary Swedish auteur to the world, after winning a Grand Prix prize in the 1956 Cannes Film Festival. Indeed, the 1955 romantic comedy is definitely a standout piece of its time, as it has unexpected depth, which arguably lacks in a lot of movies of its kind.
