Dalibor (1956)
Directed by Václav Krška
Overview
It happened during the reign of King Vladislav Jagiellon: the rebellious knight Dalibor is sentenced to death. An attempt to free him fails. This underappreciated transcription of Smetana’s opera surprises with its fresh originality, even compared to much later attempts to translate musical-dramatic works to the screen.
