After a pair of unremarkable directorial efforts, Stig Jarrel returned to what he did best -- acting. In Far Jag Lov, Magistern? (Shall We Dance, Mr. Teacher?) Jarrel is cast as a warm-hearted dancing instructor -- a far cry from his sadistic schoolmaster in Torment (1944). Heading to Stockholm to study modern-dance techniques, our hero experiences several amusing misadventures, a few of them romantic in nature. Easy to take, Far Jag Lov, Magistern was a welcome escapist antidote to the postwar defeatism of many Scandinavian films. Accordingly, the picture made a fortune upon its first release.
