Return of Tinto Brass
22 November 2021
Warning: Spoilers
One of the most famous films of "Czech Tinto Brass" has a rather simple and straightforward plot. So, the plot scheme is as simple as a rake: husband, wife, mistress. The husband goes to the left, the wife goes to the right ... but this is only so that the feelings between the spouses flare up with renewed vigor and in the end they realized that they cannot live without each other. It is no coincidence that I mentioned the name of the Italian master of eroticism here - this is the scheme according to which almost all the films of the great Italian were shot. Jiri Veydelek confidently walks along the path long beaten by the classics of the genre - the red-haired freckled beast Vitsa Kerekesh starred in one of the main roles, but the whole film can be admired not only by her charms, but also by the picture where the composition of the frame is made flawlessly. On top of that, in Weidelek we find that human dimension of heroes and that warmth that even Tinto Brass does not have. It is all of the above that leaves a pleasant aesthetic aftertaste, like a good dinner in an old Prague restaurant. So if you do not have money for foreign travel, or are not allowed into Europe due to coronavirus restrictions, this is a great opportunity to walk, at least virtually, through the narrow streets of the Czech capital, visit the places of military glory of Petrov and Boshirov, breathe in the enchanting aromas of the famous Prague coffee shop...
