The Good Soldier Schweik

Rated: 0 | 107 Views Released Year: 1956
Genre: Czech Republic
About: Based on the legendary novel by Czech humorist Jaroslav Hasek, Good Soldier Schweik stands alongside Catch 22 and MASH as a riotous satire on the futility of war. In this absurdist comedy, the dim-witted Schweik (Rudolf Hrusinsky), a less-than-willing participant in the Austrian Army during World War I, doesn't exactly take his place alongside such heroes as Napoleon, but he eventually does triumph … sort of. Karel Stekly directs.
