Swedish kitchen sink drama
I couldn't help being reminded of the genre of British kitchen sink dramas as I watched the first third of this film. The gritty realism of the working classes at home, at work and at play was all present. The row at Monika's home could have been straight from "Look Back in Anger". And yet this film predates those films and plays by a good few years. I wonder if the likes of Osbourne was inspired by Bergman's film.
