Review of Inga

Inga (1968)
8/10
Carries you back to the late Sixties
7 October 2010
This film is good, provided that you place it its right time-frame.

At the end of the Sixties, anti-conceptive became widely available. So for the first time in history sex could be disconnected from childbirth. This caused a true wave of hedonism, reflected in films like 'Inga'. Made in Sweden, of course, because in those days Sweden was regarded as leading -- which probably had much to do with the Scandinavians' traditional relaxed attitude towards sex and nudity.

Actually, 'Inga' got down so well in the late 1960-s, that its title became a sort of trademark-name for all the soft-porn of its era.

Today, 'Inga's main quality is its ability to carry you back to the late 1960-s. Surely revoking memories for those who were around at the time.

Those who weren't are left with a well-shot film. In black and white. With a coherent, well-presented story that may be somewhat boring to today's standards.
