DAISIES  (1966)  ¢ ¢ ¢ ¢
    D: Vera Chytilová
    Ivana Karbanová, Jitka Cerhová, Julius Albert
Bored with their lives in a world gone bad, two young women decide to go out and break all the rules. What follows is an experiment in anarchy: funny, outrageous, subversive and completely insane. I don't know what they were smoking in Czechoslovakia back in the '60s, but some of it must've been pretty darn good. The director, Vera Chytilová, was effectively blacklisted for much of the following decade by a government that didn't want its state-sponsored filmmakers turning out movies like "Daisies".
