Synopsis

Filmed in 1965 and released internationally in 1969, INTIMATE LIGHTING was an impressive first feature from Czech director Ivan Passer (CUTTER'S WAY). A young Prague cellist (Zdnek Bazusek) and his sophisticated girlfriend (Vera Kresadlova) visit some friends in a bucolic village. The cellist has also been engaged to solo with the town's rustic orchestra. In a gentle, anecdotal fashion, the film compares the streamlined urbanity of the visitors with the homely simplicity of the villagers. In Passer's eyes (and, as it turns out, the audience's) it is the more tranquil country life that wins out. INTIMATE LIGHTING won the Cannes Youth Prize and a special award from the American National Society of Film Critics.

4.0 out of 5 stars Czech New Wave Gem, 4 Oct 2006
By HJ (London UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
Taking his young city girlfriend along for the trip, a man visits old musical friends in a country village for a string quartet rehearsal.
This 1965 film has a number of connections with Milos Foreman's early docu-drama Rehearsal/Audition (also just released on DVD), but Intimate Lighting is a much more fully realized film. It's one of those quirky classics of the Czech New Wave: lots of understated humour & pathos & little surrealist touches or observations. It's beautifully conceived and realized; great cinematography & editing, making for a very quick-witted film (as opposed to merely comic) and having the uncontrived bittersweet quality that the best East European film, particularly Czech, had in the 1960s and which you rarely find elsewhere. Excellent DVD edition from Second Run (watch out Masters of Cinema!), including interview with director and an informative booklet. After finding out the background info concerning the main actor I realized the film was even more poignant, almost unbearably so. One other recommendation: this was one of Kieslowski's ten favourite films!
