New Czech Films
A Well Paid Walk by Milos Forman (top); Vaclav Havel in Citizen Havel by Pavel Koutecký and Miroslav Janek (middle); The Karamazovs by Petr Zelenka (bottom)
New Czech Films at New York’s BAMcinématek. The series includes works by two-time Academy Award winner Milos Forman and Jan H?ebejk, whose Divided We Fall (2000) was nominated for a best foreign language film Oscar. Václav Marhoul’s war drama Tobruk, which is supposed to show that there’s "a very thin line between heroism and cowardice," sounds particularly intriguing. All films in Czech with English subtitles.
