Review of Bad Luck (1960) by Mateusz Z — 18 Oct 2008
A beautifully told and funny sweet-and-sour tale about a vain man caught up in difficult times. Yet another testimony to the difficult and ambiguous history of Poland in the 20th century. However, this is not pathetic tale of national virtue- Munk is uncompromising and unafraid to question sacred truths.
Though the movie falls short of packing a knockout punch with it's ending, it remains a monumental example of how a brave filmmaker can defy the system in which he operates and create a cinematic masterpiece.
