"My favorite of Ingmar Bergman’s many great films. Funny, romantic, and profound, it is the most perfect period costume dramedy. “Love is the perpetual juggling of three balls: heart, mind, and body,” says Eva Dahlbeck as the aptly named actress Desirée Armfeldt. Tell me about it! Gunnar Björnstrand is great as the unbearable lawyer Egerman, playing against the delightful trio of Swedish actresses Harriet Andersson (beyond cute), the aforementioned Dahlberg, and Ulla Jacobsson. A good entry into the world of Bergman for anyone who is expecting dark meditations on mortality."

The documentary itself is straightforward and takes you on a fantastic journey through the five year period that the show was on the air. It also explains how the show was cancelled. The film does leave one with the question what if Soul! had had a 20-year-run instead of a five. I believe that the Black experience would have turned out quite different. Some artists would not exist. Had poets, artists, musicians, and dancers had the platform, more Black artists would exist and more genres would have opened.
