Does anyone know what the weather is gonna be like tomorrow?
Pelíšky / Cosy Dens (1999) dir. by Jan Hřebejk.
Exactly 83 years ago today, Germany occupied what was left of Czechoslovakia after "We will only take the Sudetenland to protect and help the German minority and nothing more."
Never trust a mad tyrant!
I think I have a new obsession: Some time ago I took home a Czechoslovakian LP of an Italian singer I never had heard of. Once I started playing the LP I totally got drawn into it. Some research later I found out that Anna Rustikano never rose to fame in her home country Italy, but had huge success in Czechoslovakia, where she was considered among the biggest stars from Italy.
And this Video of a performance of „Libera“ has it all: the weird host, that tries to joke in Italian only to confuse her (no, she's not singing „Volare“, one of the biggest Italian songs ever), the band in the background that pretends it's not a playback track, the audience totally apathetic (except of the old lady that waves towards the camera) and Anna Rusticanos dancing seems a little lost. The song gives me everything … I am totally obsessed.
