The beloved Czech fairy tale "Proud Princess" returns in a delightful new animated version, capturing the hearts of children and adults alike. This enchanting story follows King Miroslav, who falls in love with the portrait of the beautiful yet proud Princess Krasomila. To win her heart, Miroslav disguises himself as a simple gardener and travels to the Midnight Kingdom, where he faces romantic adventures and dangerous schemes orchestrated by the evil advisor Maximus.
The creators have thoughtfully updated the classic 1950s story, blending modern touches with respectful nods to the original. The animation is beautifully crafted, bringing to life charming Czech landscapes that captivate viewers. The new "Proud Princess" successfully combines nostalgia with contemporary humor and excitement. 
One of the film’s standout features is its original songs, which rival major international productions such as those from Disney. Although some fans might miss the classic song "Poupátko," the new melodies are appealing and enjoyable for all ages.
The remake brings freshness and fun to the character of Miroslav, who now appears somewhat clumsier than in the original tale, adding humor and charm to the story. 
My children and I thoroughly enjoyed this fairy tale and highly recommend it as a wonderful family viewing experience. "Proud Princess" promises to become a staple of holiday viewing traditions.
