The Girls (1968) review

Three actresses, Liz (Bibi Andersson), Marianne (Harriet Andersson) and Gunilla (Gunnel Lindblom), are a part of a production of Aristophanes' play Lysistrata - which involves a woman's efforts to bring an end to the Peloponnesian War by convincing fellow ladies to stop offering sexual favors to men - and while they're performing, they think about the various problems with their own personal lives.  The source work is a classic, but this "modern adaptation" is assembled in an off-putting manner, as it jumps all over the place and feels, at times, to be edited almost randomly.  Many of the same issues with Zetterling's 1964 movie Loving Couples are also prevalent here, especially the disdain females feel towards males and vice-versa, and the majority of the conversations seem to revolve around that animosity.  If the Greek playwright were resurrected and forced to sit through this, he'd be reaching for the hemlock.
