The eighth part of the EU Film Festival / Too cute, although it is a satire of the political system at that time, maybe the lack of understanding of the relevant knowledge makes me unable to fully understand what the film wants to express, but aside from the irony, the ridiculousness shown in the film is ridiculous. The black humor really makes me laugh. A dance saw all beings, a lecherous old man in a beauty pageant, a raffle prize was stolen, a fire extinguished the fire to keep the old man...

The group dramas covered with pictures are funny and snarky, but there are many unforgettable details. Milos forman's group drama skills are not inferior to robert altman. The characters are more dramatic and exaggerated body language. The interaction does not deprive the authenticity, but exaggerates the daily human interaction and illuminates the reality. In the end, I recall all the details that make people laugh. Instead, there is no humor and only...

It deeply reveals that socialism is a big liar, a thief, and the incomparable hypocrisy and vanity of the Communist Party. This movie is very interesting and makes people...

Czechoslovak films always have a sense of hard work. They satirize the war and satirize the authorities in the form of comedy. This short and concise work was created when Milos Forman was still in the Czech Republic. At this time, there are still strong The ridicule features of Eastern Europe, the disorder of beauty pageants, lost gifts, firefighters who guard themselves against theft, and people who have been completely reduced to the proletariat, all kinds of absurd links point to...

The rhythm is too slow, who has the time to watch a group of old men gossiping, and they are still old guys who are not very serious. Czech cinema has carried forward a tradition of a group of men scrutinizing a group of women, and every film must have...

C++/ The description of the increasingly rigid system is simple and efficient, but Milos Foreman still has an inexplicable dryness. The erotic depictions of power that go crazy over and over in the first half are actually the least insightful and imaginative from the current point of view. The profound aura emerges only from the superb depiction of spatial relationships in the middle and back sections (the chair is really divine). The satirical perspective also shows some compassion because of...

#European Film Festival# On moma Broadway, I watched the simultaneous commentary version, which was a good experience. Admittedly, this is a great anti-establishment satire, the story is small and big, flattering and beauty pageant, the old bureaucrats of the fire station are corrupt and incompetent, everyone is like a puppet doll who is manipulated, in addition to guarding and stealing, even using snow Putting out the fire (poor and innocent people), the officials told the truth, "the honor of...

#LFF2# In the Czech Republic during the communist period, I thought it would be a lot of muscular and handsome guys at first, but I didn’t expect it to be a group of old firefighters. When the fire came, they were incompetent to fight the fire. It was easy to deal with theft, but they were incompetent to make everything happen. The three labels of lecherous and corrupt bureaucrats can be seen everywhere throughout the film. So who is the one who stole it? Everyone except Joseph is a...
