One of Trnka's full-length pictures, it is based upon Hans Christian Andersen's fairy-tale. It is a story of a Chinese emperor that, because of a beautiful toy-nightingale, forgets about the song of a real, live nightingale that comforted him in his solitude. Trnka unconditionally backs the live art's side. The picture has strong ethical components, and it has been admired by many. It is also famous for the extraordinary music composed by Vaclav Trojan.

Amazing, great, wonderful. I marvel at the colorful acting sequence with the children and the whole story about the Mandarin baby who loved his nightingale. The version with Boris Karloff's commentary is strange, though. Why comment on what has already been imparted in pictures?

This framework plot didn't really sit well with me, it felt like it was just stretching the story to a certain length. However, the animated line is something else, because Trnka and his team managed to express the era, the place, but above all, the poetry of this beautiful story. The silent sequences are captivating again, and even the music doesn't spoil it.
