'100 dragspel och en flicka' ("100 Accordions and One Girl") is a Swedish comedy film from 1946 directed by Ragnar Frisk. The film's title is a reference to 'One Hundred Men and a Girl'.

Two inventors, Ville and Rulle (Elof Ahrle and Bengt Logardt) have developed a revolutionary new accordion; however, they have competition. Twelve-year-old Pelle Borell (Anders Nystrm) gets to show off the instrument in front of the Swedish accordion elite in Stockholm.
Reception
The film was positively received at the time of its release, with Elof Ahrle receiving particular praise.
'Stockholmstidningen' wrote: "Ahrle gets his best comical role in a long time". 'Aftontidningen' wrote: "A film that will go straight into the Swedish people's heart.
