Deutsch Wahrscheinlich das tschechische Märchen, das ich am häufigsten gesehen habe und das für mich bereits ein Klassiker ist. Zugegeben, manchmal wurde ich mit Infantilismus überschüttet, und es gab einige Szenen, für die ich nie klein genug war, um sie zu verarbeiten. Aber! Der Anblick des lustigen Duos des Teufels (Blanarovičovás Lebensrolle) und des Wassermanns hat mich sofort davon abgebracht. Und dann gibt es da natürlich noch den Prinzen und seinen treuen Jean, die zur allgemeinen Atmosphäre des Humors beitragen. Das Tüpfelchen auf dem i war Lucie Bílá, die ich eigentlich nicht besonders mag, aber als Hexe war sie großartig. Ich schätze auch die musikalische Untermalung und die Umgebung der tschechischen ländlichen Gebiete. ()

Englisch The traditional South Bohemian view of the attributes of a Czech fairy tale are all archetypal benefits that Zdeněk Troška has learned to juggle to perfection. The impression of a recapitulation of the old and proven without significant updating is still desired by a hungry audience that has never been jaded by regular reruns. New and proven actors, as well as celebrities, are all as if hung on a Christmas tree. But why does it falter in the end? Caricature has crept into the whole, and not only in the dimension of the prince and his faithful servant Žán. The game with ghosts is overdone to the max, as is the dosage of the cheerful butler and the entire mill. Perhaps it would be ideal if everything wasn't so bright and pleasing to the touch. Only Andrea Černá has shown over time that she is capable... ()

Englisch A modern Czech fairytale classic. Troška kept himself on a leash, an excellent Blanarovičová, unrecognizably under the make-up, and traditional storytelling of Czech fairytales. Unlike many other "classics", The Watermill Princess can be watched with a pinch of self-loathing even after several years, but only in a sentimental mood during the Christmas holidays. ()

Englisch The peak of Zdeněk Troška's work, from a time when engaging a popular personality in a supporting role did not reek of shame. To this day, I cannot believe how smoothly both romance and fairytale are managed in The Watermill Princess and how well the lines work. Without the falteringly jovial rural inserts, Jindřich and Eliška would boldly aim for the throne of Czech fairy tales. ()

Englisch I simply associate the fairy tale The Watermill Princess with my childhood - I saw it when I was eight years old, and it left only positive impressions on me. Even when I see it now, those impressions persist. But I enjoy the music component the most, it just stuck in my head. For me, it's a classic fairy tale that's just somehow lovely. ()
