5.0 out of 5 stars Good friends having fun, July 1, 2009

By 

Mike "at the movies" (Victoria BC) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Girls (DVD)

The Girls, structured around a tour of Lysistra, stands the test of time. Made in 1968 forty years later Mai Zetterling's film still has much to say about the roles of women and men in society capturing both the playfulness of Aristophanes work and the more serious issues raised in the lives of the characters. But what struck me most was a sense of fun and friendship from the three leading actresses, they know each other they know what they are trying to accomplish and they enjoy doing it together. It is never a bad thing to watch three fine actors do great work. Harriet, Bibi and Gunnel are stalwarts of Bergman era Swedish film and deliver extraordinary performances once again

5.0 out of 5 stars Less Bergman, more Fellini, May 20, 2007

By 

Canyon "Filmore" (Portland, OR) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Girls (DVD)

Truly was expecting a Bergman feel to this, Zetterling's other New Yorker Video release "Loving Couples" could easily fit in with much of Bergman's work from the same period. This film however would make a great companion to "8 1/2". It has the same strangeness.

Great slightly abstract scenes (and the movie is full of them) such as Gunnel Lindblom (looking a bit like Anouk Amiee) being chased by an increasing large group of boys through a shopping center can easily be compared to Fellini.

Also Gunnar Bjornstrand gets to present a character that is entirely different than anything he did for Bergman.
