Smiles of a Summer Night (Swedish: Sommarnattens leende) is a 1955 film directed by Ingmar Bergman. It was the first to bring the director international success with exposure at the Cannes Film Festival. In 2005 it was one of Time magazine's "100 Movies" list of the best movies of all time.[1]
The film's plot – which involves switching partners on a summer's night – has been echoed many times, notably in the films of Woody Allen, most explicitly in A Midsummer Night's Sex Comedy. Bergman's film was made by Stephen Sondheim and Harold Prince into the musical A Little Night Music, which opened on Broadway in 1973.
