But it's in black and white...?? And not in english....??? I don't recognize any of the stars....

I just don't get it :)
 
Well, it's not from Hollywood, so money is not the ultimate goal, and black & white is coming back, just like turntables ;), and it's exotic because it's from Czechoslovakia (speaking), and not only that but also because it's considered to be the very best one (flick) coming from there (over). :b

P.S. Just rent it, you'll see! :D ...All will become very clear and obvious.
 
I was mostly kidding. I do appreciate the recommendation and have ordered the blu-ray based on your recommendation.

Being in the Czech Republic on holiday I like the connection. :)
 
I knew that you were only kidding, no sweat! :b

* Great, now you'll have a Czechoslovakia Classic flick in your Blu-ray cinema library! :cool:

* Powerful flick; same guy, Jacques Audiard (French), who directed 'A Prophet'.
...And yes, it's a French flick (speaking, talking).

Well you certainly like to challenge yourself, no 'check your brain at the door' flics for you!
 
Watched this awful thing last night;

Absolutely gripping. An account, based on fact, of one of the early attempts to climb the north face of the Eiger. Documenting both the political climate and the intense competition of the times, this film was so "edge-of-seat" that my wife couldn't watch some parts. The struggle of friends Hinterstoisser and Kurz makes great cinema IMO.

'The Eiger Sanction' with Clint Eastwood as both actor and director. ...Some common traits.
