Dziewczyna na miotle

The original The Girl on the Broomstick is a satirical modern fairy tale, working with themes of young love, situational humor and the then very popular clash between the supernatural and the present. The acting is dominated by the Menšík and Bláha generation, with only Jan Hrušínský standing out from the younger generation. Petra Černocká did not move out from Saxana's shadow, Kraus exchanged his former field of expertise for the current one, Zavřel fell into the episodic actor category, and there are no further traces of Hejný in the film (due to his emigration). Today, the sequel is titled Little Witch on a Broomstick, with new characters and a major change that makes it a film not for teenagers, but rather for children. It's too bad that we don't find a similar treasure in the second film like the epilog by Meda Valentová. Adolf Born's charming opening credits were replaced by modern special effects, which, on the other hand, is a natural phenomenon 40 years later. (27.08.2011)

One of the best modern fairy tales - and perhaps the best of all - that I would rather forget its sequel. A fantastic story that combines traditional fairy tale characters in one world - yes, there is a bit of a connection to "Arabela" - and besides, there are only great actors here. Incredibly good casting for individual roles, it doesn't really matter which one you choose. Plus, there is a beautiful soundtrack here. I sometimes sing the theme song because it's simply infectious. (23.01.2014)
