Czechoslovakia Frantisek Vlacil
Had another go at this masterpiece. It excels in composition, lighting framing, pace, imagery, symbolism, art in many forms...all wrapped around a simple, touching story of a lost bird, an injured boy, an artist, a young girl.
Lean, lovely, thought-provoking, moving, a splendid visual display...scene after scene. This film began a renaissance in Eastern European cinema that brought a host of wonderful films and directors to the world stage...most prominently Milos Foreman.
One of the greats...sui generis.
