After a forced hiatus of several years, when the consolidating normalisation regime had him in their sight, this is but a mere glimmer of the genius of Vláčil, whose excellent craft and imagery exploded in the 1960s and whose artistic heyday (when he was planning many other ambitious historical projects until the 1970s) was halted by the invasion of Russian troops and the subsequent shameful five-year era of "cinema of oblivion". In other words, the Communists squeezed Vláčil like a lemon, and although his last creative phase is not to be dismissed, the proverbial chains that had bound his hands for the previous ten years are very noticeable. Such a shame.

Another excellent Vláčil film with a perfectly sultry atmosphere, similar not equal to Adelheid, which is a few years older. The film boasts excellent actors (I never liked Juraj Kukura much, but I forgot about that now, and Gustáv Valach was even better), Liška's never-failing music... A great film, but a bit weaker and more predictable compared to the aforementioned Adelheid, which is a bit of a shame.
