School for Wives

There was a component of mass-education to Bergman’s choice to film the theatre production. In a TV-interview Bergman talked about his idea that good theatre should be made available to everyone and not only the people living in the bigger cities: ’Dramaten and the Royal Opera are two state institutions equally owned by Selma in Teckomatorp and Agnes in Korpilombolo but Agnes and Selma never gets to see what we are doing.’
