Three Bugs

An adorable, brilliant work by director Ján Roháč, his best work after the series about two foolish French clerks. It is an original comedy conceived as poetic clowning by three top actors with a talent for movement and the ability to express everything essential with just facial expressions. Three little bugs discover the human world and find themselves in the position of a toddler exploring its surroundings and touching objects around it without knowing their purpose. The amount of fun that can be had with a clock, a gramophone, or an ordinary spoon! Overall impression: 95%. (10/05/2007)

I didn't like the bug played by Josef Dvořák (I kept wondering what it would be like if they had cast Boris Hybner instead), I didn't like the music, and the whole thing was too long and at times too childish. Technically, however, I have absolutely no reservations (the decorations are amazing), just as in the case of Bolek Polívka's great creation. (11/09/2011)
