    Even though it's a comedy, I'm still very uncomfortable with the nasty behavior of taking women away. Comedy may be about showing the ugly side of human nature in a more dramatic way. Faced with fame, beauty, and misfortune of others, how would you react? Human nature keeps watch over you and me, and I want to try my best to stick to my fire station. It is said that the director's last work before leaving the Czech Republic, the gift box dedicated to the fire chief at the end of the film was...

    It's short, shrewd and funny. It seems that it is still a wonderful satirical movie that is not outdated, and now this kind of high-density jokes and satirical political movies are really rare. The only thing I wonder is how the Czech firefighters are so old...

    7+@Poly Expo The two films that I watched at the EU Film Festival on this day are both political metaphors, one noisy and the other grim: Czech dark communist bureaucrats vs Italian right-wing lackeys sentimental, ah, even more resonated with the latter's long aftermath. (kennel...

    That axe that everyone wants is the trigger for burning down homes. The reality is sometimes more absurd than the movie, as if a bunch of officials who don't understand football want to be the savior of Chinese...

    On the one hand, he satirized the officials, quarreled about trivial matters, did not do anything, and did all the innocuous things. After all, the ball became a farce, and the beauty pageant was even more chaotic. On the other hand, he reprimanded the ignorance of ordinary people. The ball was full of ugliness and prizes. For their own sake, turning off the lights and turning on the lights is even more hopeless. The fire reflects people's hearts, and these people will only remain...

    #新看#4.5; Foreman in the Czech period brought allegory and jokes to the peak, short and concise, small in size but covered a lot of information, dizzying descriptions of group portraits, misunderstandings and deviations caused by the collision of individual personality differences, macro scenes The group carnival created has amazing control and scheduling power, showing the appearance of a so-called real high-level comedy. The climax scene is hilarious, and the revealing of the darkness of human...

    A lifetime of work in exchange for an empty box, Forman just wanted to express this, the technique is Buñuel-style, but the skill is far worse than the...

    A very interesting one, the rhythm is brisk, every character is lively and interesting, there are various "accidents" in an event, the old director is waiting for everyone to arrange quiet, the noise of all kinds of out-of-control people in the dance party, waiting for the beauty pageant to take the stage Embarrassment, the laughter of turning off the lights and returning the gifts, are all full of the comings and goings of the eyes in life. I really like movie posters,...

    The director said that he didn't think about satirizing Noyu politics, he just told what he saw. Just a ridiculous dance and a brutal fire. Reputation is more important than...

    A farce from the beginning to the end, everything is done wrong, the beauty that cannot be selected, the prize that cannot be drawn, and the fire that cannot be...

The Firemen's Ball quotes

  • Ball Emcee: And now, at last, the long awaited moment has come. We shall now elect the beauty queen. She will then hand over an honorary present to our former chairman. Now I ask the chosen candidates to come to the stage. Music!... Comrade candidates, please come up here to the stage.

  • Gray-haired Committee Member: The lottery has been stolen.

    Joska, Committee Member: Gentlemen, there is one fact: if the people stole it, they cannot win it.

    Committee Member: Don't talk like that, Joska. What about those people who bought the tickets honestly and didn't steal anything?

    Joska, Committee Member: They should have stolen.
