MonsterPerfect Good idea lost in the noise

Holstra Boring, long, and too preachy.

PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

sfried I caught this on WNYC the other night and boy is it good! It reminds me a lot of Ivan's Childhood. What a crime this isn't on video. What a crime this guy, who's obviously done a lot of work isn't known at all in this country! But film history is riddled with people like this. There's probably a bazillion obscure European directors who've done great works which eclipse nearly anything any snot-nosed young Indie type is doing now.Some enterprising DVD distributor could make a lot of cinephiles very happy. Anybody listening

lbradford A tale of a young boy wandering a landscape torn by war, At' zije Republika (Long Live the Republic) is a heartrending film highlighted by its fantastic editing- we see the boy's life as a jumble of images past, present and imagined. As we see the timeline of scenes come into focus the film becomes one you'll never forget. Outstanding black-and-white cinematography by Jaromir Sofr (Larks on a String, Report on The Party and The Guests). I hope to see more films by this wonderful director Karel Kachyna!
