SMILES OF A SUMMER NIGHT is an enchanting comedy of manners with a satirical edge. Set on a country estate at the turn of the century, it features eight people, including an actress, a sophisticated aristocratic couple, a lawyer and his virginal wife, and a spirited young maid who, during the course of one evening, change partners several times and engage in multiple romantic trysts. Full of subtle eroticism and wit, Ingmar Bergman's romance proposes that falling in love (or lust) beyond the parameters of social convention is not only unavoidable at times but it might even be the key to personal happiness.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseSingle Side - Dual LayerFull Frame - 1.33Audio: Mono - SwedishAdditional Release Material: Video Introduction by Director Ingmar Bergman Video Conversation With Film Historian Peter Cowie and Producer Jorn Donner Trailers - 1.
