5.0 out of 5 stars Whimsical look at village life, September 16, 2000
This review is from: My Sweet Little Village [VHS] (VHS Tape)
"My Sweet Little Village" is a fantastic portrayal of village life and mentality in Central Europe. Set somewhere in the Czech countryside during the 1980s, the film focuses around the village simpleton Otik and the portly farm collective truck driver who has to work with him. Along the way, viewers meet all of the often odd denizens of the village. Menzel is a masterful director as his film is both funny and endearing. The actors also do a fantastic job. What makes this film so outstanding is that it is an almost perfect reflection of rural life in this part of Europe, which anyone who has spent even a little time in the villages of e.g. the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Slovenia, etc. can attest to.

It's been several years since I saw this movie, but I remember it being a sweet, charming movie that I truly enjoyed. Village simpleton Otik and the cast of characters will work their way into your heart!

5.0 out of 5 stars If you see one foreign movie, see this one!, January 8, 2001
By 
T. Pechan (Mississippi State, MS United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: My Sweet Little Village [VHS] (VHS Tape)
What a delight! Forget the Holywood for one night and see this marvel of cinematography. You will not only be entertained in the best way movie can offer, you will be educated about people of socialism era in east Europe as well. This movies portrays life, mentality and values of ordinary villagers, whose ambitions were simple - walk trough life with a little of joy and smile on the lips. The story has a bad guy too, of course, but people in this movie, so realistic and rooted, will capture your heart. The Oscar winner director Jiri Menzel put on the screen a life with all its dimensions and he did it great - again. And by the way - you will laugh your lungs out, providing you do not laugh only at Adam Sendlers.
