Okay, so it's been a while since I've written anything but hopefully I'm going to start updating this more often. I just finished watching "When Father was Away on Business" directed by Emir Kusturica in 1985. Kusturica won the golden Palm at Cannes for this piece of work. Thus far I've only seen "Underground" by Kusturica but both level the horizons of thought and insight on sore subject material. The work may require some research unless well versed in post WW II Bosnia and Cominform. In any case, Kusturica develops quite an ensemble of characters struggling or let's say dealing, during this time period. It's focus is the tension that was prevalent between Russia and Yugoslavia in the early 50's. I'm definitely excited to visit more of this Serbian director's work.
