Menzel could not work in films for some time after Skřivánci na niti. It was a period when he had to decide if he would accept the rules dictated by the regime or leave his profession yet keep his “artistic freedom.” This difficult situation was also faced by other members of the Czech New Wave. Miloš Forman, Jan Němec and Ivan Passer decided to emigrate, while Věra Chytilová and Evald Schorm stayed in Czechoslovakia even though they could not work as film directors (Chytilová for seven years, Schorm for 17 years).Read More »

It’s Harold’s birthday, and his closest friends throw him a party at Michael’s apartment.

Pastorali explores what is truly valuable in human relationships, when one cuts away the non-essentials. The story shows what happens when a highly cultured group of musicians from a string quartet spend the summer rehearsing in a small village in the Georgian countryside. In this contemplative, idiosyncratic and somewhat humorous film, they get embroiled in local controversies, and share their gusto for living, loving and drinking with the villagers, to whom they are otherwise incomprehensible, while they rehearse and bicker among themselvesRead More »

971 Swedish erotica from Sarno starring the lovely Marie Liljedahl. Sequel to Inga (1968).

This is the Grindhouse cut.

After her boyfriend leaves her alone and penniless, Inga can only long for the love of another man devoted to satisfying her body and soul. Rolf, a young pop singer and musician, tries his best to seduce her, but she ultimately falls for Stig – a dashing older man and writer. Stig owns a beautiful villa, and Inga gladly becomes his personal secretary – and lover. When business takes Stig away, Inga’s loneliness and unfulfilled sensual desires lead her straight into the arms and bed of Rolf. Inga’s life is further complicated by the arrival of the young and beautiful Greta Tillstrom (Inger Sundh) who admits to an on-going affair with Stig and professes a blossoming attraction for Inga herself. As passions surge and forbidden lust is embraced, Inga will be forced to confront a shocking secret and reconcile an aching heart with a tireless young body that can’t say no.Read More »

Review by Dario Soldatini, 2006, from imdb:
The dark side of an untold page of history
Brief synopsis North Italy, spring 1945, during the nazi-fascist occupation. A gang of fugitive republican fascists (John Steiner, Macha Meril and Lino Capolicchio) kidnaps a metrobus full of civilians and tries to escape to the Swiss’s border, in order to recover from the advancing allies and partisans. During the journey, we are able to see (throughout some flash-backs) the fascists’s activities prior to their runout (Macha Meril, in the role of Egle, a female volunteer for Italian Social Republic, in the attempt to humiliate a nude prisoner before sentencing him to death) alongside the captured civilians (remebrances of their “normal” lives under allies’ bombs and everyday’s troubles of wartime).Read More »
