AllMovie

The Swedish cinema was not all angst and nostalgia in the late 1940s. Musicals continued to be popular with the populace, as proven by the minor but entertaining Djurgardskvaller. The title translates as Evening at the Djurgarden, while the plot concerns the various romantic and comic intrigues which occur during that evening. Most of the footage is devoted to the amorous escapades of a starry-eyed debutante, played with well-scrubbed freshness by Ingrid Boerk. Most reviewers loved Boerk, but didn't love the film; audiences were satisfied with both.
