Intermezzo is a 1936 Swedish drama film directed and co-written by Gustaf Molander about a concert violinist falling in love with his daughter's piano teacher. The cast includes Gösta Ekman and Ingrid Bergman in the leads. This film led to Bergman gaining her contract with David O. Selznick and acting in a 1939 American remake opposite Leslie Howard.[1] It was later remade again as the 1980 film Honeysuckle Rose.
