Summer and Sinners
Summer and Sinners (Swedish: Sommar och syndare) is a 1960 Swedish comedy film directed by Arne Mattsson and starring Karl-Arne Holmsten, Elsa Prawitz and Yvonne Lombard.[1] The film's sets were designed by the art director Bibi Lindström. It was shot in Eastmancolor. The film received a very poor reception, and even some of its own cast members were publicly critical. This marked a turning point in the previously high regard in which Mattsson's films were received.[2]
