Prague Nights (1969)

Directed by Jiří Brdečka, Miloš Makovec, Evald Schorm

Overview

A stuffy middle-aged foreigner, a businessman named Fabricius, lonely and looking for a night’s diversion, finds it in the form of a mysterious blonde. In an abandoned cemetery, she tells him three tales involving black magic and erotic obsession. In “The Last Golem,” a young rabbi struggles to fashion a massive, silent giant out of living clay — until he’s distracted by a mute servant girl. In the second episode, “Bread Slippers,” an 18th-century countess indulges her passion for sweet cakes, adulterous affairs, and secret kisses with pretty maids until a mysterious visitor whisks her away to an abandoned mansion, where Fate has a different kind of dance in store for her. And in the final story, “Poisoned Poisoner,” a ravishing murderess in the Middle Ages dispatches lecherous merchants to the tune of upbeat ‘60s Czech pop songs.

Length 92 minutes
