What a loss..... I always loved “Smiles of a Summer Night” which was not one of his dark films, though it did have some moments of despair..... but it’s quite a lovely comedic gem..... anyone else here know it? The actress who played the maid, Petra I think?? was stunning. She was Bergman’s ‘discovery’ I believe, though I don’t know whether they did anything else together......
