Tmavomodrý svet (2001)

English title: Dark Blue World.
Synopsis: The action is set on two time frames that intercalate, 1939 (and subsequent years until 1945) and 1950. The central character is a Czechoslovak man; in 1939 he becomes an allied pilot in England. In 1950, he is a prisoner in Czechoslovakia.
Appraisal: Like this writer/director duo's previous Kolja, this is a festival of clichés. I liked this one a little better, perhaps due to its theme. I can't find much to say about it; it is limited, but works well as mild entertainment.
Rating: 51
