Description
In the Still of the Night / Za tichych noci DVD
Synopsis
A poor music composer mistakenly believes that the girl he adores loves someone else. This leads him to leave for overseas, where he achieves success, fame, and wealth. Upon his return to his homeland, he finds his old love married, and it seems too late to clarify the tragic misunderstanding. Although the film was made in 1940 during the Protectorate era, when travel to and from America was still possible, this poetic and touching melodrama maintains an appropriate "noble" level, befitting a screenplay written by Vítězslav Nezval.
