Acting for Two: Inevitable as the play has twenty-three characters, but only six main actors. The only one to play one single character throughout is Anders Eriksson as Axel. This was retained for the movie, which featured the same cast.note The sole exception being the Bratty Teenage Daughter, who is no longer played by Kerstin Granlund in an obvious case of Dawson Casting. She gets three additional smaller roles in exchange, though.
