There is a reason My Sweet Little Village is so beloved. It is very very funny and totally charming. Obviously Jiří Menzel had already made his name with the brilliant Closely Watched Trains in 1966, but this film is very very different than that movie, and it's a Chekhovian delight.
Also, I totally fell in love with the nerdy character who is sleeping with a young unhappily married woman in the village. He's played by Jan Hartl and he looks exactly like my ex Kevin. He's a nerd but a passionate lover (exactly how I always think of Kevin, too).
