Obsluhoval jsem anglického krále (2006) 720p BluRay DTS x264-DON

Obsluhoval jsem anglického krále / I Served the King of England (2006)

Comedy | Drama | Romance | War

I Served the King of England treads lightly through a dark time–before, during, and after World War II in Eastern Europe. This cinematic fable follows an impish Czechoslovakian man who leads a modestly charmed life as a waiter at hotels and brothels, sleeping with prostitutes and chambermaids as he dreams of wealth and plays pranks on the rich and bourgeois. But when he falls in love with a fervent Nazi woman, glimpses of a bleak reality intrude into his whimsical life. I Served the King of England doesn't delve in to the horrors of the concentration camps (though it does explore some strange, lesser-known corners of the Nazi psyche). This is the story of a man who leads a shallow life, who evades atrocity almost by accident, and who grows haunted by his lack of engagement and pursuit of meaningless goals–and yet, he survives while others do not.
