All These Women Did Not Save It

I never thought that I would have to say that but I did not like the Ingmar Bergman's film "All These Women". In spite the very pretty and delicate pink and blue cinematography and the presence of the charming and talented actresses, the movie was a mess of an attempt to create a comedy. Everything that was subtle, sensual, and charming in B/W "Smiles of a Summer Night" (1955) was missing here. First of all - the Jarl Kulle's performance as a music critic - biographer, Cornelius. Kulle was very effective and funny in "Smiles...", in "Women..." - he plays an irritating, annoying, and the worst - absolutely not funny (which is a crime for a comedy) character. If in "Smiles... the writing was a first class and sparkled, I got the impression that in "Women.." Bergman did not care or did not want to work on the script and was more interested in experimenting with colors and music. The movie looks and sounds fine - it is Bergman, after all, but that's the only redeeming qualities that I found.

INGMAR BERGMAN, OPUS 26
*** 1964. Written and directed by Ingmar Bergman. A music critic tries in vain to meet a famous cellist in order to complete the biography he's writing about him. Strange comedy of the Swedish master who was aiming at teasing the people who gravitated around himself. ALL THESE WOMEN was also the first film in color of Bergman and was photographed by Sven Nykvist. Let's admit it, I didn't laugh a lot and I almost fell asleep ten minutes before the end of the movie. Nevertheless, Ingmar Bergman's faithful fans will appreciate to see Eva Dahlbeck, Bibi Andersson and Harriet Andersson playing unusual parts. A DVD zone curiosities.
