Rut's sexual feelings were highly neurotic because she had been sexually abused by her stepfather. When the chimney sweep came, she seduced him and afterward felt dirty and desperate. She found and seduced Martin. From the beginning she interspersed mean attacks. During the war he was drafted, but deserted. He and Rut hired a room by the chimney sweep. Soon Rut seriously stabbed Martin's hand with a fork and they were thrown out. But whatever Rut did, she could always "make it undone" by one word. Eventually they lived at the loft of an empty storehouse. On New Year's Eve Rut went to her mother and stepfather and demanded all cash the latter had. He gave her what was equal to four months salary for an unskilled worker. Martin believed she had got the money by prostitution. He left her and reported himself to the police. Rut promised to revenge herself. Martin was acquitted because a friend testified that he was mentally ill when he deserted. He and Rut reconciled, but she did not forget her promise.

Anita is filled with self-disgust."...one notes that Ingmar Bergman, with the position he now occupies, no longer gives away his best screenplays. The concept for Last Couple Out is probably an old one that he once laid aside but has now tried to lick into shape. In any case, it seems to belong to an earlier phase in his development." - Nils Beyer, Morgontidningen
- DirectorIngmar BergmanStarsNaima WifstrandJullan KindahlMax von SydowHerr Sleeman kommer (Mr. Sleeman Is Coming) is a 1917 one-act play by the Swedish author Hjalmar Bergman.

Bergman infuses the situation with overtones of rueful pessimism concerning life in general.
- DirectorLars-Eric KjellgrenStarsMarianne BengtssonLars EkborgGunnar BjörnstrandSixteen year old Maria arrives in Stockholm. She is going to stay with her aunt. Already at the Central station events occur that change her route.Ingmar Bergman's contribution to the film did not appear in the credits. However, the cover of the screenplay reads: 'A romantic comedy by Lars-Eric Kjellgren. Scenario: Lars-Eric Kjellgren and Ingmar Bergman.' There is therefore more than a hint of irony in the fact that one of the reviews (the most critical) cited Bergman without being aware of his input:
'Night Light is the result, the highly dubious result, of Lars-Eric Kjellgren's ambition to play the part of a Stockholm René Clair. Or if you will: proof of what can happen when one misconstrues Ingmar Bergman.'
