#131 is another gem of the Czech New Wave - It's an interesting coming of age story about the life of a young man, working for the Train Service, trying to get laid in Nazi Occupied Europe - I did not see that story line coming - LOL
I doubt I'll know or see any of these actors or directors in the near future but I guess this was Menzel's most popular film in the west. He'll do some more, and be forced to denounce the excesses of the New Wave
Times like this I wish I was better able to describe the technical details of what is going on, the camera, the framing, and the staging - but it is what it is - I am an amateur, and it was a good film - not one I'd buy but good.
