Czech émigré Milos Forman directs this endearing mood-pleasing story of broken promises, shattered hearts, and the universality of love. Andula, a young girl, follows a piano player named Milda to his parents' home in Prague. After having had a one-night stand with him when he came through her small working-class town on a gig, she mistakenly believed him when he invited her to meet him again. Of course, when she finally does catch up to him he is unreceptive, as are his ultra-conservative parents, who can barely survive the idea. After numerous attempts to confront him, Andula returns to her hometown and discovers how their relationship has been belittled by the boy's description to his parents. Forman captures the sixties precisely, which makes the film a joy to watch. The anti-romantic but comic tone exemplifies the Czech New Wave movement. The effortless screenplay is penned by Milos Forman's longtime friends Vaclav Sasek and Ivan Passer, based on a story by Jaroslav Papousek. [More]

Reviews for Loves of a Blonde
Milos Forman's breakthrough film is a haunting picture of life during the Communist era.
Presumably, the film's supposed to be a quirky and revealing slice of life - but since the central character is never developed beyond the superficial, it's impossible to care about her.
... its simple but meaningful story has captured the emotions of its subject in a timeless and real fashion.
Like Forman's Fireman's Ball, you won't remember much about the actual plot because it is secondary in importance
Forman somehow manages to craft comedy that neither veers from the challenges of realism nor reeks of shameless manipulation.
a funny, often moving depiction of the youthful romantic urge and the unfortunate disappointment that often follows
