synopsis
Evig a Lankar was released outside of Sweden as Eternal Bamd. The story focuses on the lives and loves of a Stockholm family. Though there's many a squabble and schism, when the chips are down the family sticks together. Hardly original material, Evig a Lankar scored points with its ensemble performances and incisive direction (by veteran Rune Carlsten, whose last film this was). More importantly, the film represented the return to the screen of actress Anna-Lisa Erickson, a popular prewar movie personality who was able to parlay Evig a Lankar into a successful comeback.
