Pelísky (1999)
Bittersweet comedy set during Prague Spring
7 November 1999 - 7 out of 9 users found this review helpful.
Other than the English-language title ("Cosy Dens"), pretty much everything about this delicate film is well done: a touching and bittersweet story. A motley group of neighbors, whose lives are intertwined by the friendships of their teenage children, try to sort out their political and personal dreams during an uncertain time in their country's history. The coming-of-age storyline and occasional slapstick antics are here poignantly double-edged, given the audience's knowledge that their world will soon be shaken. And where do the Czechs keep coming up with these incredible young actors (remember "Kolya"?) -- these kids are all right.
