Life / Polish movies - what they are like? [34]
I recently viewed Mis, Teddy Bear. I can understand it's a great film, but as a person in the States, I had hard time following it. I belive the humor has to be viewed within the context of the culture and I simply don't have the cultural history of Polish person.
I tried Fire and Sword, too. Had a hard time with it. Well, I get lost in the books, too, and have to read some parts over and over.
However, I did get a good laugh from Fire and Sword. It opens with a person being attacked. He is rescued and what does he say to the man who rescues him -- Dzjiki. (Sorry if I spelled it wrong.) I think if someone saved my life the word Bardzo might be part of what I said.
