Description

A Prominent Patient / Masaryk
Synopsis
It is 1939. Flamboyant Czech diplomat Jan Masaryk has fled to America to escape his recent past. Germany has invaded Czechoslovakia and Masaryk is now a man with no nation. In America he tries to forget the personal and political betrayal he and his country have suffered but these events shadow his every step. As the Czechoslovak ambassador in London, Masaryk failed to win the support of the British and could not avert the ruination of his country. With the help of Dr. Stein, an emigre German psychiatrist, and the beautiful writer Marcia Davenport, Masaryk tries to overcome his demons and re-live the dramatic events leading to the outbreak of the second world war.

No English subtitles

I regret to say that I was not able to enjoy this film. It says in the product details that the audio is Czech and English. Some of the dialogue in the film is in English, that much is true, but the majority is in Czech. And since there are no English subtitles, it makes it hopeless for a non-Czech speaker to follow the storyline. A waste of money then, I'm afraid.

Masaryk

I paid for the item on April 26, today is June 4 and I still did NOT
get the item. Wrote to the company, the ANSWER is wait.
NOT acceptable and who wants to deal with the company that takes money and
does NOT deliver the product!

Disappointing!

It does feel like Masaryk really is a great film and one to watch, but unfortunately for me, there really was no English subtitles or should I say, enough English subtitles, to allow me to fully comprehend this historical character or to appreciate the entire film. If you ever get a copy that does have English subtitles, I would definitely buy it.

Worth seeing

The narrative of the important figure of Czechoslovak history and its role in one crucial moment of our modern history.
And on top of it, well shot. And Roden. What more do you want? Masaryk did well despite the shortcomings.
