Ucho (The Ear) is a Czech language film by Karel Kachyňa, completed in 1970. It is often compared to the play and movie Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?. This film was withheld from circulation by the nation's ruling Communist party (who were supported by the occupying Soviet forces). It wasn't released until late 1989, around the time of Czechoslovakia's first democratic elections in over 40 years.
The film is about a bitter married couple that consists of Ludvik, a senior official of Prague's ruling Communist regime, and his alcoholic wife Anna. They return home after attending a political party dinner and notice their home has been broken into. Several strange occurrences, including the disappearance of their spare house keys and dead phone lines, lead them to believe that they are under surveillance by their own government. As the night progresses, the flaws of their marriage and of each other are exposed.

  • It is a culturally significant act to post this excellent movie to youtube for everyone to watch!

  • The guy's wifey is cute

  • Není divu že ho komunisté uložili do trezoru,báli se pravdy.Skvělí film.

  • Thank you for this movie! :)

  • Ano, ano... Nadčasový film obdařen kouzlem strachu, jak ve scénáři od Jana Procházky & Kachyni, tak i v jeho trezorové zakázanosti tento film zhlédnout.

    Kdo se tohoto filmu nejvíce bál, těch neůplných 20ti let normalizačního strachu?

    Snad jen ten název je až příliš hravý... Štěnice nebo Náměstek ministra bez klíčů

    Bravo všem tvůrcům!
