Based on Ingmar Bergman's film Smiles Of A Summer Night, the play A Little Night Music was a smash hit on Broadway winning six Tony Awards and two Grammys.

Middle-aged Frederick Egerman (Len Cariou) has been patiently waiting a year for his young bride Anne (Lesley-Anne Down) to consummate their marriage. But unbeknownst to Frederick, his son Erich (Christopher Guard) is also in love with Anne. To complicate matters, Frederick's former mistress Desiree Armfeldt (Elizabeth Taylor) arrives in town... but Desiree is having a clandestine affair with the husband of the Countess Mittelheim (Diana Rigg)! The mismatched couples in this delightful bedroom farce are all invited to a country estate where their lives (and loves) are inevitably sorted out.

The film, shot in Vienna, boasts sumptuous sets and beautifully detailed period costumes. The music by Stephen Sondheim includes "Love Takes Time," "Every Day a Little Death," "A Weekend in the Country," and "Send In the Clowns."
