which will continue at the Little for
the next six weeks, the Czech entry
sets very high standard for the
films of the II other nations which
will follow it.
For all the strangeness of the
name "Janosik," the story of the
film is universal, familiar, invariably
interesting. Janosik is the character
in Czech folklore whose English
equivalent is Robin Hood. He was
liberator of the poor and oppressed
in the days of serfdom in Bohemia,
a gallant hero who took his defini-
ton of freedom from the human
heart and sought to fit it to no polit-
ical ism of his own. Those old
school heroes had something there,
and one phase of it was vivid ma
terial for movies.
The material in this case has been
treated with extreme intelligence.
Out of it Director MacFric has
fashioned a celluloid narrative that
has dignity counter pointed with
violent action, tenderness balanced
with the most savage forms of
cruelty, humor that drifts naturally
into pathos 1t is the stuff of life,
as folk tales are. and the makers of
"Janosik" have tried to fool neither
themselves nor their audiences that
it was anything else.
The realism with which they have
told their legend of high adventure
is one of its most impressive quail
ties. For one important feature of
it they did not try to reproduce the
Carpathian mountain locale in card
board. They used the Carpathian
Mountains, instead The result is
grandeur that rarely is achieved
except in scenic films in which
cameramen do not have to bother
with story or character.
They are to be congratulated, too,
on their fidelity to Janosik's fate.
If ever a hero deserved to live hap
pily after his magnificent deeds
Janosik did. But that was not the
end which destiny had arranged.
His cause was lost cause, Snagged
on his love for beautiful peasant
and destined to end on a gibbet.
And that was the way it ended,
doubling the value of its inspiration
and giving this film version an au-
thenticity beyond that of the vast
majority of screen stories. The un-
happy ending in this case was the
only happy one.
The gigantic posse of movie fans
on the trail of a Phett Rl1tler r,iObt
find of interest the Czech system for
casting Janosik. A huge, athletic
type who was definitely man of the
people was wanted. He was found
of all places-on the State police
force in the person of chap named
'Palo Blelik. If Mr.. Blelik is not the
reincarnation of Janosik, he is the
grandest actor ever kidnapped from
State police troop. His Janosik,
fellow of incredible strength who
can sing songs of freedom on q Car
