Miss Julie (Fröken Julie) is an 1888 play by Swedish playwright August Strindberg. The play explores the exploitation between classes, and uses the Destructive Romance device to its bitter conclusion.On the eve of St. John, a great public feast in Sweden, Miss Julie, the daughter of a wealthy count, fraternizes with the servants, dancing her ass off. Jean, the coach, comments that she is "out of her wits", and discusses this with Kristin, the cook, to whom he is betrothed. Julie herself arrives, and craves one more dance with him. During the following dialogue, we discover that he lusts for her, and she likewise for him. They even discuss eloping to Italy together. When she discovers she is slandered by the servants, she hides in Jean's bedchamber. Guess what happens next.After this, the tables turn, and Jean openly scorns her. She despairs and wishes to leave on the spot. When Kristin arrives, the debate is heating up even more, and it all ends in the open, with Julie leaving for her bedroom, Jean contemplating suicide, and Kristin just leaves the place.It has been adapted for film and television many times. A 1951 version by Alf Sjöberg won the Palme d'Or, and featured a young Max von Sydow in a minor role as the stablehand. In 2014, the play was adapted by Liv Ullmann into a film starring Jessica Chastain and Colin Farrell. | |

Wondrous Ladies Room | |
| Miss Julie (Theatre) / int_158e2891 | comment |
Wondrous Ladies Room: Or Wondrous Rich People's Restroom. Jean describes sneaking into the garden of the estate when he was a boy, being intrigued by a little wooden building, going inside and being enchanted by the pictures of emperors and fine curtains—until he realizes it's an outhouse. | |

| Miss Julie (Theatre) / int_1ba17583 | comment |
The Ghost: Julie's father never appears, but his boots are on stage. In the end, a bell rings to make clear he is back. (Averted in the 1951 film where the father appears in a long flashback.) | |

| Miss Julie (Theatre) / int_28c1d543 | comment |
Defrosting Ice Queen: Subverted. At first, we think Miss Julie is a cold Rich Bitch who is playing with her servant's feelings. In the end, we realize she was faking a cold demeanour and she is really in love with him. Conversely, we doubt about the reality of the feelings of Julien. | |

Old-Fashioned Rowboat Date: Subverted in the 1951 film, in that it's Julie telling her employee Jean to row her out on the lake, although given all the flirting and sexual tension it's still basically a date. | |

Rich Bitch: Julie is haughty and commanding at first. Subverted, because this is just a façade. After her sexual intercourse with Jean, we understand she is a fragile person who do not know how to behave. | |

Took a Level in Jerkass: Julie, and then Jean. After their intercourse, Jean flatly denies her the right to be haughty, and delivers a splendid "The Reason You Suck" Speech. Later, he summarily kills her pet bird with an axe. | |
