Told via flashback, this raw, emotional drama chronicles the events that led a 22-year-old Czech Gypsy to prison. Marian was born to an alcoholic father and a terrible mother. As a result he is sent to a government orphanage where he is labelled a problem child for his inability to speak Czech. Life in the orphanage is devoid of love and offers only minimal physical comforts. Sometimes life there is brutal. His one bright spot was the time he first spent with a kindly and encouraging teacher who inspired in him hope for a better future. One day something goes wrong and the teacher is forced to punish Marian who retaliates by stabbing her. Marian is a teen by the time he is released from a juvenile reformatory. He falls in love for the first time, but because it is a foreign emotion, he doesn’t know how to deal with it. By this time, the cruelty that has marked his life in institutions seems to have fated him to be a criminal and for Marian there can be no turning back. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

Seduction (1929)

Ridd — Sun, 04 Sep 2011 17:03:15 +0000

Original title: Erotikon
Year: 1929
Runtime: 1 hour, 24 minutes
Country: Czechoslovakia
Language: Silent
Subtitles: Czech (intertitles) & English (.srt)
Genre: Drama

Director: Gustav Machatý

Cast:
Karel Schleichert … Railway Gatekeeper
Ita Rina … Andrea
Olaf Fjord … George Sydney
Theodor Pistek … Hilbert
Charlotte Susa … Gilda
Luigi Serventi … Jean
Ladislav H. Struna … Teamster
Milka Balek-Brodská … Midwife
Bohumil Kovár … Railwayman
Bedrich Saxl … Proprietor of the Couture
Vladimír Slavínský … Tailor
Bronislava Livia … Customer at Beauty Parlor
Václav Zichovský … Proprietor of the Pianos Store

Plot/Synopsis:
The film Erotikon, made by Gustav Machaty, caused controversy among the audiences of that time. What particularly shocked them was the way the director showed love scenes. Some admired it, some condemned it and, as a result, it was underrated and lost for years. Fortunately, the copy was found in the 1980s and restored for today’s audience who can admire the genius of Machaty.
Erotikon, like many silent movies, does not offer much action. The content of the movie is, from today’s perspective, quite naive. It is a story of complicated love affairs of George (Olaf Fjord) and his number of women. But, astonishingly, love is not showed as sweetly as in other movies of that time. Some love scenes are, indeed, very open and without taboo (Machaty’s way of showing sex was mostly revealed in Extase (1933).
There are three most memorable moments in this movie:
- a love scene between George and Andrea (Ita Rina). It is in no way vulgar but it is directed towards her face in ecstasy for most of the time. That is probably the thing that shocked the audiences.
- a scene of playing chess. The thrilling atmosphere is really extraordinary. In very few thrillers nowadays will you find an equally well made scene! WONDERFUL!
- a considerable number of funny slogans throughout the movie. Some are dated but still funny in a way.
For anyone who likes European cinema and for whom film is art in itself, no matter of when it was made, Erotikon is a must to see. It was a great work of the Czech cinema.

Plot/Synopsis:
Milos Forman’s 1963 debut BLACK PETER presages the Czech director’s lifelong thematic obsession with precocious, disgruntled outsiders waging war against social conformity and authoritarianism (ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO’S NEST, AMADEUS). This time the protagonist is Petr, a sullen Czech teenager forced by his overbearing father to take a demeaning job spying on potential shoplifters at a grocery store while seeking solace in the dancehalls of Bohemia. Both a darkly comic observation of adolescence and a subtle allegory of Communism’s intrusive politics, BLACK PETER ushered in the Czech New Wave that flourished until the Soviet invasion forced Forman and other dissident intellectuals into exile. ~ Indiepix Films

Plot/Synopsis:
The skeletons in the closet of one Czechoslovakian freedom fighter change the way his family and the world looks at him in this drama from Czech filmmaker Jan Hrebejk. Pavel Josek is a well-respected psychiatrist and college professor who is also known as a noted political activist and anti-Communist dissident in the years before the Velvet Revolution. Pavel has a supportive wife, Jana, and an adult daughter, Lucie, who is recovering from cancer treatment. The quiet life of Pavel and his family begins to fall apart when a filmmaker starts work on a documentary about his years as a dissident. Lucie’s husband, Ludek, who is working on the film as a sound engineer, reveals to her that he’s been having an affair with a former girlfriend, Radka; while Lucie tries to be rational about what’s happened, it doesn’t make her inclined to trust Ludek or what he has to say. But as the filmmakers look into Pavel’s life, they discover evidence that casts an ugly shadow on his past — documents suggest Pavel worked as an undercover agent for Czech intelligence, informing on his fellow radicals, and that his friend and colleague Borek played an unexpected role in his life. ~ Mark Deming, Allmovie
