Polish Cinema for Beginners: Ashes and Diamonds, with Adam Kruk

Polish Cinema for Beginners is back with an absolute classic. Andrzej Wajda's Ashes and Diamonds (1958) is one of the most electrifying breakthroughs in European cinema — a film shot in the rubble of post-war Poland that somehow feels as urgent today as it did then. The guest on this episode is film critic and Polish Cinema for Beginners founder Adam Kruk. We go into the release and reception, the themes, the imagery, and so much more.

Oczywiście mamy taką noc, że oglądamy film Black and White z tego czasu, ale Cybulski sam, myślę, że sposób w jaki gra, jest bardzo inny od wielu innych charakterów w filmie.
