Con bravura

Jul 01, 1972
Originally, Munk intended Eroica to be a triptych with Con bravura being the first part, but he ultimately gave up on this film, deeming it weaker artistically than the two counterparts. Con bravura is about conspiracy conflating the paths of a rather unconventional nun and an intrigued young man – each of them bears secrets and the encounter could incite a flaming romance, though one suffocated by war.Munk set the film in the mountain capital of Zakopane and its vicinity, allowing breathtaking views from a cable car and using his experiences of the Nazi occupation in the area to add gritty reality. The director plays a cameo as a priest with several of his industry friends also making appearances.

Une fille a parlé

Jan 26, 1955
Stach est un grand garçon malheureux, livré à lui-même, et dont les seules ressources sont de « chaparder » du charbon dans les trains allemands en gare de Varsovie. Un jour il trouve enfin du travail comme apprenti menuisier et découvrira un monde nouveau parmi ses compagnons de l'entreprise et auprès de jeunes qu'il retrouve à la sortie. Il apprend qu'un philosophe s'est penché sur le problème de l'exploitation de l'ouvrier par le patron capitaliste puis il découvre la valeur de l'opposition à l'occupation allemande à travers les harangues d'une fille énergique et décidée : « une fille a parlé » et Stach découvre l'amour en même temps que l'idéal patriotique. Bien que le thème principal ici traité soit l'héroïque résistance polonaise à l'occupant nazi, ce film, d'inspiration marxiste, comporte des éléments subversifs tendant à démontrer l'efficacité de l'idéologie communiste à laquelle l'auteur oppose un christianisme désuet et inopérant.
