Iva Janžurová says: I devour good films like good food
Our country does not have too many film actresses so popular as Iva Janžurová. She has done tens of roles, scenes, performances ... and they are always individual, original, and a well done. This modest woman definitely deserves her tribute at this year's Finále Plzeň - and that not only because of her life jubilee. The nation loves her. This may sound like a rehearsed phrase, but in this case it is not.

Films enthusiasts might wonder about the word MICHR in the programme of Finále. It designates films which feature in some way actress Vlasta Chramostová and cameraman Stanislav Milota. This is because in the eighties this couple using the name MICHR Company made original lights from the waste from glass factories for their friends. During normalisation they could not find any other kind of work due to their signing of Charta 77.
