Quotes

[on reviewers' first reaction to Pytlákova schovanka aneb Slechetný milionár (1949)]: "It turned out disastrously at first. About 40% wrote that the movie should be played because people had a nice cry while watching it, but that some people were giggling and interrupting the show, which should have been banned in the cinema. Another 40% wrote that our spoof, which was making fun of such beautiful films as Krb bez ohne (1937) or Svetlo jeho ocí (1936), should be banned. Well, in short, it was about 80% against it."
