Additional InformationSUMMER WITH MONIKA is an intense, sensual drama, adapted by Ingmar Bergman from a novel by Per Anders Fogelstrom. In an acclaimed, stellar performance, Harriet Andersson, on her way to becoming a Bergman regular, plays the fiery teenager Monika, and Lars Ekborg is Harry, a sensitive youth who becomes her lover. Together they escape to a remote island off the coast of Sweden, where they spend a carefree summer exploring nature and giving in to their own passionate instincts. When Monika finds herself pregnant, the young couple is forced to return to the city, where they settle down to a dull domestic life together, with the prospect of a bleak future in a drab working-class environment. The impulsive Monika soon decides she wants more out of life...<BR>Because of the occasionally erotic nature of the material (and Bergman's uninhibited rendering of it), prior to being released in America the movie was edited, retitled MONIKA: THE STORY OF A BAD GIRL, and marketed as a racy sexploitation film by its U.S. distributor, in turn earning the director the disapproval of those who considered the finished product obscene.

A nice piece of film history
I thought I should learn more about Bergman so chose this film, as a starting point. It made waves when first released and started a series of "summer"films that set Sweden up as the sexually liberated country it was reported to be. Nowadays, it's incredibly tame of coursebut I'm kind of glad I have watched Harriet Andersson aged 19 or so, while she is still alive - she is 87 as I write this. There are dozens of reviews of this film online, all done by people far more expert than I; I suggest you read them, but that famous shot towards the end where Andersson turns to look straight at the camera along with a dramatic lighting change, stopped me in my tracks. If you are looking for the nude scenes, yes they are there, but very brief, tame, distant and of course monochrome. I was amused though, that Bergman gives us a reprise of the 'best one' right at the end, almost, it seems to me, as a reward for sitting through the gritty reality of Monika's true character coming to the surface. If you are a budding film buff, you should probably see it, and if, like me, you have reached an age similar to that of miss Andersson without seeing it ... Ditto. :-)

Classic Scandinavian cinema.
A film about youth, love and its challenges. Atmospheric and beautifully shot with natural performances and an extraordinary shot of Monika towards the end that influenced Bergman's contemporaries.
