Warning: Spoilers
A Swedish production with English subtitles, Dollar focuses on a businessman's wife (Ingrid Bergman) who suspects her husband of adultery. Swedish film, from 1938, with a young Ingrid Bergman about three married couples who flirt with one another's spouses out of sheer pettiness and insensitivity. Gathered together in a snowbound resort, they eventually come to their senses, but it hardly seems to matter since their morals and desires are interchangeable. She decides to catch him in the act at a ski lodge. SPOILERS: This is a very Swedish comedy with Bergman as the wife of an industrialist. She sells her stock in her husband's company to help pay Chave's gambling debt. This causes a panic on the stock market, but a friend of Bergman's husband, Westergren, buys her shares and things get back to normal. Bergman then suspects her husband is having an affair with American Burnett. She invades the ski lodge where she thinks the affair is going on and discovers her suspicions are wrong. Bergman and Rydeberg make up and Burnett falls in love with the lodge's clerk, Adolphson.
