Editorial Reviews

One of Ingmar Bergman's best comedies, A Lesson in Love belongs to that trio of films (Dreams, Smiles of a Summer Night) Time called a "lewdly hilarious trilogy." This witty look at marriage and adultery re-unites Gunnar Bjorns

5.0 out of 5 stars Rich Romantic Comedy!, April 26, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: A Lesson in Love [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Movie-goers commonly turn to Bergman for the symbolic, the intense, and the bizarre ("The 7th Seal," "Shame," "Hour of the Wolf," "Persona," and so on), neglecting his less edgy works. This does him an injustice, as he was also masterful--and equally insightful--in lighter fare. "A Lesson in Love" is a sly and thoroughly entertaining romantic comedy somewhat in the nature of his much better-known "Smiles of a Summer Night," a work which I find more artificial and less compelling than "A Lesson in Love." As always with Bergman, the acting is superlative and the dialog rich and well-conceived. Bergman comedies have no intention of being laff riots; but there are wry smiles a-plenty to be had here (keep your eye on the bartender!). My reaction on seeing it for the first time was, "Absolutely delightful!". I think it will be yours, too.

2.0 out of 5 stars It's ok., December 27, 2007
This review is from: A Lesson in Love [VHS] (VHS Tape)
It's a "so-so" comedy. There is a well-shot scene on a canal in Copenhagen, but overall it's nothing special. For completists only.

3.0 out of 5 stars INGMAR BERGMAN, OPUS 14, December 9, 2007
By 
Daniel S. "Daniel" (Geneva, Switzerland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Lesson in Love [VHS] (VHS Tape)
*** 1954. Written and directed by Ingmar Bergman. A comedy for adults as the introduction says. After 15 years of marriage, Marianne and David Erneman hardly lives together anymore but one day David decides to leave his mistress and to reconquer Marianne. Three major feminine figures gravitate round David -Gunnar Björnstrand- Erneman : his wife played by the sublime Eva Dahlbeck, his daughter played by the juvenile Harriet Andersson and at last his mistress impersonated by the venenous Yvonne Lombard. If this comedy of manners is interesting, it can't be compared with works of the same period like Sawdust and Tinsel - Criterion Collection or Summer Interlude (Sommarlek) [ NON-USA FORMAT, PAL, Reg.0 Import - Great Britain ]. A movie for the curious ones.
