Sorrisi di una notte d'estate (1955)
Un maturo avvocato incontra un'attrice che fu sua amante e accetta il suo invito di passare con la giovane moglie il weekend in una villa di campagna. Carosello tragicomico di amori incrociati. La migliore commedia del regista, un capolavoro. Nelle cadenze frivole di un "invito al castello" con risvolti comici da pochade rivela un retrogusto amarissimo. Grande compagnia d'attori, eleganza suprema. Bergman sostiene di essere negato all'umorismo, al registro leggero. Dopo Una lezione d'amore, questo film lo smentisce. Premiato a Cannes nel 1956.
