This is a typically laid-back Scandinavian coming-of-age film about a school trip to the Swedish wilderness. Vil Du Se Min Smukke Navle? is pleasant and nothing to get too excited about. There is the usual experimentation with the opposite sex, a couple scenic views of Sweden, but nothing much happens. Happily, the dialogue is refreshingly free of clichés, and director Søren Kragh-Jacobsen -- little more than a teenager himself at the time -- gets fine performances from a mostly amateur cast. Birger Larsen, who made his screen debut here as one of the kids, would later direct the popular children's film Lad Isbjørnene Danse.
