While on vacation, photo agency owner Susanne (Eva Dahlbeck) hopes to rendezvous with her married lover. The man's wife puts the kibosh on this, whereupon Susanne enters into an affair with diplomat Sanderby Gunnar Bjornstrand. This liaison ends unhappily, leaving her sadder and wiser at vacation's end. So annoyingly confusing is Dreams that at times it resembles a Woody Allen parody of Bergman, rather than the genuine article. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
Dennis Schwartz, Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Lacks the gravitas of the director's more powerful latter psychological dramas but, nevertheless, shows-off his technical skills.
-
Jon Fortgang, Film4
Scattered moments of rawness aside, the master of the spiritual crisis directs an unbalanced and uncharacteristically unconvincing melodrama.

, TV Guide's Movie Guide
This is not one of Ingmar Bergman's greats, but is a compelling film all the same.
