Ann, the young wife of the male lead, is portrayed as a beautiful and innocent angel. Her image is not too full, but very clear. She is a little lively and very beautiful, but also sensitive and affectionate. She will lively take the initiative to run to hug her husband, and every time she tries on clothes, she will let others see which looks good. Sometimes she sheds two lines of tears alone and silently. The first time she saw Daisy on stage, she realized her relationship with her husband. The dullness of married life and the ignorance of love brought her heart and stepson, Eggman's son, Henrik closer and closer.
Henrik has the confusion and melancholy of a young man. He often reads some "radical" books, plays the piano silently by himself, and sometimes shows a little bit of madness, and has nothing to do in the face of love. Facing the seduction of the maid Patri's active play, he couldn't restrain himself and caught up, but he always got madness and melancholy. In the end, he even chose to hang himself, but fell down and accidentally pressed the button, and saw this phantom-like scene: accompanied by crisp and pleasant music, An was slowly bounced out of the bed. In the end, he kissed An Yong together, boldly chose this love, and chose to elope with An. The two embraced each other on the carriage and galloped away. Ann took off her veil and let it fly with the wind. The two lovers finally chose boldly to be together. The handling of these episodes is full of drama.
The maid Patri is played by the director's favorite actor and lover, Harriet Anderson. She is beautiful and frivolous, always seducing Henrik with a teasing attitude, and their performances often introduce laughter. However, their "play" even caused the sadness of stepmother Ann. When she and the masters came to Daisy's house for dinner, she met her true love and forced him to marry her. The fun in the backyard and the fight on the haystacks made people see Patri's cuteness and Harriet Anderson's performance. . Patri is very honest and kind. She casually answered Ann that she was not a virgin and that she was about to die for the first time, and she has been serving her carefully. She seems to be her best friend. When Ann was dizzy, she took the initiative to help her. She was the first to find it, and eventually went to see her and Henrik who eloped.
Earl Mark and his wife are a young couple. They have reached the point of "love and kill each other". Mark doesn't seem to care about his wife. He found actress Daisy as his extramarital lover. The pain was exposed when visiting friend Ann. However, in the end, the wife pretended to have a private meeting with Eggman's lawyer to anger her husband, and Mark chose to duel with Eggman - it turns out that the two still care about each other very much. The two finally vowed to "bundle together".
The love life of the middle-aged lawyer Eggman of the male protagonist is like ashes, and it seems that the fire of love cannot be ignited. When talking to his old lover that he might have fallen in love with his young wife, the old lover was amazed at his "resurrection". Eggman loves his beautiful and innocent young wife Ann, and sometimes he can't help kissing her, and even let people take a lot of photos of her, and then keep them in the pages of the book he reads at any time, but Eggman has never had a relationship with his wife. On the surface he is ruthless, but he still cares about his old lover and confidante Daisy.
As a middle-aged single woman, Daisy combines beauty and wisdom. She knows Eggman very well, and can even help him analyze his psychology. She is very optimistic and happy, and she also has her own independent career. These are also the reasons Eggman has been so attached to her over the years. She found out that many people have complicated feelings, and she wanted to take the initiative to organize a banquet to solve it. But why is she not suffering? Just bury it deep in my heart. She even raised herself and Eggman's son alone, and even the man did not know about it for many years. When Eggman casually said that her mother was incompetent, she slapped him hard. I am afraid that only she understands the hardships and pains involved. After the banquet, she sang alone, full of sadness.
Daisy still cares about Eggman, and she even provokes Eggman with the enthusiasm of her lover, Earl Mark, and then treats him with a cold attitude. When discovering that]]] and Eggman had a secret meeting, he chose to tell Earl Mark without hesitation.
In the end, Eggman asked again who the child belonged to. At this time, Henrik and Ann had eloped. Obviously, Eggman and Daisy, the middle-aged man and woman, had to choose "holding the hand of the child".
"Summer Night's Smile" is undoubtedly the best comedy I've ever seen, and it's actually a rare comedy for a neurotic director like Ingmar Bergman.
The smile of the Nordic summer night sky is given to them: the first time is from midnight to dawn, the horizon shows a gentle light, it is for young lovers; the second time, the sky breaks, the birds chirp, the smile of the summer night Dedicated to harlequins, fools and hopeless people; for the third smile, it was bright, this time to those who were sad, gloomy, insomniac, and lost.
