First published in 1975, this book examines the career of one of
the leading post-war Czech filmmakers Milos Forman through his own
testimony. After recollecting his childhood and early artistic
ventures, Forman gives accounts of the making of his major films,
interspersed with contemporaneous reviews by the author, and in the
final chapter he sums up his 'lessons along the way'. A section
entitled 'Stories behind the Stories' fills in details on the
events and people mentioned in Forman's narrative. The author's
commentary provides valuable insights not only into the aesthetics
of filmmaking but also the social and political environment in
contemporary Czechoslovakia.
