Life / Funny Polish/American movies [16]
Hello everybody, new to the board. I have just seen a movie called Kochaj albo rzuc. (1977) I believe it is of a 3 part series, I have seen the other 2 movies also. However, this movie made me laugh so hard I almost started crying. The parts that were hilarious are the ones where the Poles already living in Chicago speak half polish and half english. I grew up in the 70's, and my parents came from Poland to Chicago in the early 60's, but moved to WI in early 70's. Anyhow, when we would visit my grandparents in Chicago in the 70's, what I saw in this movie is exactly how I remebered it growing up. The American people I showed these parts to didn't get it, nor do the 100% polish people I know got it either. Only my 50/50 polish american friends I know laughed their heads off at these points in the movie. Does anyone knoe if there are any other similar movies like this out there? Thanks for your time.
