Synopsis by Hal Erickson
The English-language title of the Swedish Brollopstratten is Wedding Night. Far more appropriate to the action is the title of the Vivian Tidmarsh play upon which the film was based: Is Your Honeymoon Really Necessary? An intelligent and attractive romantic comedy, Brollopstratten is directed with finesse by Bodil Ipsen. Some of the goings-on might have been a bit too risque for American censors back in 1947, but by modern standards the various sexual misunderstandings are quite tame. Danish comedian Max Hansen stands out in a uniformly talented cast.
