Love 65 (Swedish: Kärlek 65) is a 1965 Swedish drama film directed by Bo Widerberg. It was entered into the 15th Berlin International Film Festival[1] where it received an honorable mention for the FIPRESCI Prize.[2] Bill Evans' "Peace Piece" featured in the soundtrack. The characters in the film go by the real first names of the actors.[3][4]

Plot

Keve is a successful film director who lives with his beautiful wife, Ann-Marie, and their daughter, Nina, in the Kåseberga area in Skåne. Despite this, Keve finds himself unsatisfied. As he prepares to shoot a new film, he channels his frustrations into an affair with a married woman.

Cast

Release

The film was released in Sweden on 17 March 1965. In June of the same year it was presented in competition at the Berlin Film Festival.[1]

In 2002 it was screened again at Berlinale as part of the retrospective section "European 60s - Revolt, Fantasy & Utopia", which is dedicated to European cinema and the cultural and political upheavals of the 1960s.[5][6]

Critical reception

The film received a mixed response, with critics lauding the beauty of its shots but criticizing the directionless narrative.[4] In 1972, The Guardian's Derek Malcolm wrote: "Love 65 now seems to stand uncomfortably between the raw realism of 'Raven's End' and the evocative lyricism of 'Elvira Madigan'".[7]
