== Reception == The magazine ''Barred'' gave the film a positive review, saying: <blockquote>Swedish sexsational movie “Моrianna" is packed with nice juicy lovemaking scenes. The tale revolves around a Paul Getty-type millionaire and a troupe of hangers-on. The old gent is always threatening to disinherit the whole bunch. His wife by a late marriage is only 40 and of course has a lover! The top star in this flick is Danish sexpot “Lotte Tarp,” who plays the role of a very erotic maid. The story is a thriller, with just enough sex thrown in.<ref>{{Cite book |url=http://archive.org/details/barred-v-01n-04-1966.-seven-seventylast-3-pgs-damaged-ddt |title=BARRED |date=1966 |publisher=Seven Seventy Publishers |edition=2nd |pages=26}}</ref></blockquote>
