Description	Ingmar Bergman was a bit like Beethoven -- he was around for so long and did work of such ever-increasingly imposing brilliance, that the early pieces tend to get forgotten. Secrets of Women (1952) is a case in point, dating from the outset of his career, long before he was a household name in Europe, forget America -- this amazingly elegant and lively psychological comedy-drama never seems dialogue-heavy or weighted down by exposition, as three wives (including a very young Anita Bjork and Eva Dahlbeck) discuss the ins-and-outs of couple-hood while awaiting their husbands.
