Our take

Arthouse meets grindhouse in this sexploitation classic from genre stalwart Gustav Wiklund. Starring Bergman veteran Åke Fridell (The Seventh Seal) and the queen of Swedish erotica Christina Lindberg, Wide Open hops cheekily between drama, comedy, and softcore. A cult object if ever there was one.
