Jazzy Lemon Slnko v sieti (1962)
"The Sun in a Net" (English title)
Directed by Stefan Uher.
Writer:
Alfonz Bednár
Stars:
Marián Bielik, Jana Beláková, Olga Salagová
An early key example of the budding Czechoslovak/Czech New Wave, that is one of the first films to break out of the strict Socialist-Realist mold previously forced on filmmakers by the communist authorities.

Taking advantage of the loosening in policies in the early 1960’s, Uher was able to break new ground with this film, by using a more ambiguous and free flowing narrative one that didn’t have to have an absolutely pro-communist message, and depicting certain scenes that while completely tame by today’s standards, would never pass the censors just a few years earlier. Getting away with images such as girls in bikinis, implied adultery, or even showing an inefficiently run farming co-operative, was previously unheard of.

Uher also took some influence from other European filmmakers particularly the visual style of Michelangelo Antonioni, and also the Italian neorealism movement which can be seen in many of the city scenes as well as the rural tavern scenes.
The film is centered on the young couple Bela (Jana Beláková) and Fajolo (Marián Bielik), who have a few days left together before Fajolo must go to the country to do mandated work for the summer. It then continues to follow their separate threads as they each discover life and love over the rest of the summer.

The story alone isn’t very remarkable, but Uher’s refreshing and creative way of crafting a poetic mosaic of images, precisely captures the youthful essence and perspective of his characters. Starting with a beautifully filmed sequence of a solar eclipse viewed from the Bratislava apartment rooftop where the two protagonists prefer to spend time together, along with many other memorable and striking scenes including the titular image of the sun reflected in a fisherman’s net, we are shown the world through these young people’s eyes.

It’s a wondrous and positive outlook from these individuals who for the moment have many exciting possibilities and the rest of their lives ahead of them. A message that fortunately for us, would not be missed by the other Czech and Slovak directors of the time.

Jazzy Lemon Tirez sur le pianiste (1960)
"Shoot the Piano Player" (English Title)

A washed-up classical pianist, Charlie Kohler/Edouard Saroyan (Charles Aznavour), bottoms out after his wife's suicide — stroking the keys in a Parisian dive bar. The waitress, Lena (Marie Dubois), is falling in love with Charlie, who it turns out is not who he says he is. When his brothers get in trouble with gangsters, Charlie inadvertently gets dragged into the chaos and is forced to rejoin the family he once fled.

Based on the novel Down There by David Goodis.

Jazzy Lemon (Les) Enfants Terribles (1950)

Directed by Jean-Pierre Melville.

Elisabeth is very protective of her teenage brother Paul, who is injured in a snowball fight at school and has to rest in bed most of the time. The siblings are inseparable, living in the same room, fighting, playing secret games, and rarely leaving the house; though Paul's friend Gerard often stays with them. One day Elisabeth brings home Agathe to live with them also. She bears a strong resemblance to Dargelos, a schoolboy whom Paul had a crush on, and who injured him. Paul and Agathe become attracted to each other, causing Elizabeth to be very jealous.

Based on the book by Jean Cocteau which was in turn based on his own childhood experiences.
