The Sneaky Victory of a Genre: The Story of One Czech Western

Original language description

The paper deals with post-war czech cinema and its possibility to use typical western genres. It describes and analyzes a way how Jindrich Polak´s movie Smrt v sedle was made and how an inspiration from american cinema was used. During communist era western genres could be a perfect method how to attract wide audience, but it was necessary to change the ideological content of original genre movies or to switch the way how they were seen. Czech authors and filmmakers often apllied an ironical approach and cynical worked with genre scheme and marketing tools, but with sarcastic distance.
