My second favourite Bergman film [first is The Inn]. The only problem with this film is that forty is NOT old. She was merely a beautiful, sophisticated woman and her acting, as always, was the tops. I wish she had married the Antony Perkins character and lived happily ever after....instead she married Roger, her lover with the roaming eye [and more] and he continued his shennanigans after they were married. Who would cheat on Bergman? This is the weakness of the story.
No one was more appealing on-screen than Anthony Perkins when he was young. He was also a fine singer and piano player. Too bad his own demons often got the better of him. I enjoyed his early performances.
He was not a big man physically but he had a big stage presence! a slender
dark and handsome giant, with total screen magnetic powers.

I don't think he has ever been sweeter/hotter than in this one. I think this scene was "looped". Perkins had a genius for it.
