The most successful fairy-tale in the Czech Republic
5 January 1999 | by (Znojmo, Czech Republic) – See all my reviews

Scarcely anyone in the Czech Republic can imagine the Christmas time without this movie on TV. Unforgettable music, perfect acting and the unique atmosphere contribute to its evergreen popularity even after almost thirty years.
