This is a super little film, with comic strip characters stranded in the real world and only able to talk using speech bubbles. The actor playing the villainous Superman character was a Slovak architect and part-time bodybuilder. theartsdesk.com/film/blu-ray... @secondrun.bsky.social #czechnewwave

A purple-dominated watercolor painting of a young girl looking amused off to the side looking at a man playing a lute. The source material comes from the 60s Czech film 'Valerie and Her Week of Wonders'.

Still from the movie. A woman in a red body suit sits in a trapeze swing holding a cat while staring at the audience in the background.
Still from the movie. Three characters in the foreground have turned vibrant colors: the man on the left is entirely red, meaning he's in love, and the woman on the right is purple, meaning she's lying. A third person is behind the woman and is also purple. In the background are various empty chairs and people standing around.
Still from the movie. Children walk across a peaceful meadow.
Still from the movie. A man orchestrates a crowd of adults in the middle of a forest as they search for their missing children.
Watched WHEN THE CAT COMES/ THE CASSANDRA CAT (1963) tonight and what a beautiful film with a great story. I'm not entirely sure how they made those people different colors but it looks so beautiful on film.
