YMMV / A Little Night Music

Go To


The musical:

  • Iron Woobie: Desirée, when she sings "Send in the Clowns." Though devastatingly heartbroken, she presents the situation as amusing.
  • Les Yay: Petra and Anne's "I'm a boy" scene, complete with rolling around partially clothed on Anne's bed.
  • Tear Jerker: "Send in the Clowns"
  • Values Dissonance: The first song has Fredrik considering (though eventually rejecting) the possibility of taking Anne by force.
  • Wangst: Henrik's lamenting is supposed to be at least partially this. Depending on how sympathetic the actor plays him, however, it can/should be partly genuine pitiable Angst. Probably because what he sees as "profound" torment is really just the result of bad decision making and major UST.
