SE 1971, R: Ingmar Bergman mit Elliott Gould, Bibi Andersson, Max von Sydow, 115 Min, OmeU

Ingmar Bergman's first film in English, stars Bibi Andersson as Karin Vergérus, a Swedish housewife trapped in a stable but somewhat unsatisfying marriage with a small-town surgeon (Max von Sydow). When the lively, engaging Jewish American archaeologist David Kovac (Elliott Gould) enters the picture, Karin gives in to her attraction and begins an affair. But Karin's new relationship turns out to be less fulfilling than she had hoped, and she is torn between staying with David and returning home to her husband and children.
