I've seen it and loved it for a first sight. Absurd, humor and something more. typical Polish atmosphere. but if these are reason for calling it `masterpiece' or `classical movie'? It's just a great, great joke about days that gone fore ever.I don't believe that someone who didn't try this life can understand it at all. Don't get me wrong it's funny and really untypical movie - mostly because of the cast but THIS IS PAST!!!
