Harry Lund: Monika, I'm going to start night school. You can become an engineer if you keep at it. I've always liked engines. I fixed the engine on the boat last autumn.

Monika Eriksson: You study to be an engineer, and then we'll get married, okay? Harry. I think I'm pregnant.

Harry Lund: What? Seriously?

Monika Eriksson: Hmm.

Harry Lund: We have to go back so I can start working. You need proper food.

Monika Eriksson: No, I'm not going back. I want summer to go on just like this. Harry, I don't know anyone as sweet as you.

Harry Lund: Monika, we have to make something real out of our lives. We'll care for each other. I'll study and get a decent job, so we can get married and have a nice house, you and me and the little one on its way.

Monika Eriksson: You'll come home from work and I'll have dinner ready. We'll take the children for Sunday walks. I won't work. I'll stay at home with the kids. We'll have nice clothes.

Harry Lund: We'll have a good life. We'll always stay together.

Monika Eriksson: Just you and me.
Monika Eriksson: Spring is here. Did you notice?

Harry Lund: Yes.

Monika Eriksson: One shouldn't work on a day like this.

Harry Lund: No, it's really crazy.

Monika Eriksson: Let's go away and never come back. We'll see the whole wide world. Are you game?

Harry Lund: Sure, let's go.
Monika Eriksson: You know where I work?

Harry Lund: Yes. It must be cold there.

Monika Eriksson: I thought I'd freeze my ass off last winter.
Monika Eriksson: Hey. You'll have to hold me or I'll freeze. You may kiss me now, Harry.

[kiss]

Monika Eriksson: I guess we like each other a lot, huh?

Harry Lund: Monika...

Monika Eriksson: I'm crazy about you.

Harry Lund: There's no one but you. Only you.
Harry Lund: You're not mad at me, are you?

Monika Eriksson: I like you.

Harry Lund: Are you sure?

Monika Eriksson: Dead sure.
Harry Lund: I thought we could eat at my place. Dad's in this boat club and they're meeting today. He's eating with the guys before the meeting. So, I thought we might...

Monika Eriksson: You're so sweet. It'll be such fun, almost like we're married. You're so sweet, not like the others at all. Like right out of a movie!
Monika Eriksson: I can't stand those guys pinching me all the time. Why don't they pinch their wives?

Svensson: It's not as much fun.
Svensson: Come out with me. I'll cheer you up.

Monika Eriksson: Not likely. I've got other fish to fry. I'm going steady.

Svensson: You too? All the floozies are going off the market.
Monika's Boss: Nilsson!

Svensson: It's Svensson.

Monika's Boss: Same difference. I promised your boss a bottle on my ration card. He said you have money. Hurry up before they close!
Monika Eriksson: I'm soaking wet, but I'll freeze if I take my coat off.

Harry Lund: The sleeping bag's warm.

Monika Eriksson: [takes her coat off] I don't want to wrinkle my skirt.

[takes her skirt off]

Monika Eriksson: Take off your pants so you don't ruin the creases. What nice long legs you have. Come here.
Försäljare hos Forsbergs: Finally decided to show up?

Harry Lund: I didn't hear my alarm. Dad's sick, so I'm alone.

Försäljare hos Forsbergs: Out with hussies, no doubt. That slut at the greengrocer's.

Harry Lund: Mind your own business!
Monika Eriksson: Now we can go wherever we like.

Harry Lund: Like you said that time at the cafe: "Let's go away!" Let's forget about all those bastards.

Monika Eriksson: I hate them. Everyone who holds us back, who wants us to grovel.

Harry Lund: Let them scurry around like rats - - we won't be there.
Harry Lund: Imagine them slaving away at Forsberg's now.

Monika Eriksson: And down in that old cellar, carrying crates around in the dust and dirt.

Harry Lund: We've rebelled, Monika, against all of them.
Monika Eriksson: Oh dear, I've grown tubby.
Harry Lund: You see - I've always been so lonely. My mother got sick when I was five. She was sick until she died. I was eight by then. Dad went a bit funny after that. He got all quiet. He and I would sit at home all evening, neither saying a word. We'd just sit there.

Monika Eriksson: I've never been alone. There's so many of us. The brats fight and wreck everything. Dad's always drunk and kicking up a fuss.
Monika Eriksson: Harry, why do some people have all the luck while others are miserable?

Harry Lund: Monika, we have each other.
Harry Lund: It's been a lovely summer, but everything changes starting today.

Monika Eriksson: Imagine being back in town. We haven't been to the movies since we saw "Dream Girl."

Harry Lund: No, we've been in our own dream.
Verkmästaren, Harrys arbetskamrat: Well? What did you have?

Harry Lund: A girl. Everything went well. Almost seven pounds.

Verkmästaren, Harrys arbetskamrat: Get going now. I don't want any fingers cut off here. Come back in the morning - sober. Go home and put on your best suit and buy her some carnations.

Harry Lund: Red carnations?

Verkmästaren, Harrys arbetskamrat: At your age, buy the green ones.

Summer with Monika short comments

Josie 2022-04-23 07:03:54

The youth that I have survived is only these two summers, hurriedly bandaging, the hormonal thief ship makes me want to pay for it, the countermeasures of wild together are embroidered with touching temperature differences and show bifurcations that are almost unrecognizable, flames are lightly pinched, This is nothing, the time is out of her way of lying, the life of nude pink escapes back to nothing and there, Fangcaobi even the ruler and protractor let go of the world, staring through the back of the paper to wring out the water and ask "Just him" , the child will understand, the total memory is long, stop there.

This film should be called "The tragic story of the good boy Harry falling in love with the wild child Monica who is only suitable for love and finally becoming a father"
