[T]his Oscar-winning black comedy is a real treat....Funny and subversive.

...An understated tragicomedy....The characters are drawn with naturalistic humor....Menzel sets in motion an act of subversion that is matter-of-fact in its drama...

...This is one of those magic instances where tragedy and wistful comedy mesh in a remarkably seamless whole... -- 3 1/2 out of 4 stars

Product Description:

A reflective, unprepossessing drama about the coming of age of an unambitious young man working as a train dispatcher during the Second World War. Very typical of the Czech New Wave's interest in innocents tragically caught in the crossfire of history. Academy Awards: Best Foreign Language Film.
