The English-language title of this rustic Swedish comedy is Lazy Lena and the Blue-Eyed Per. It's a remake of the 1932 film of the same name, which in turn was based on the popular stage play by Ernst Fastbom. The earlier film was a notorious flop, and the remake didn't fare much better. Even the comeback appearance of veteran Scandinavian movie favorite Gudrun Brost did little to improve the box-office chances of this silly story of a gawky girl and her more urbane swain. Even so, Lata Lena etc. boasted the superb cinematography of Sven Nykvist, several years before his legendary collaborations with Ingmar Bergman.
