The Polish film Parada serc (2022) was shown in the U. S. with the title Love Parade. It was directed by Filip Zylber

The movie stars Anna Próchniak as Magda, a hard driving Warsaw TV executive, and Michal Czernecki as Krzysztof, and artist who lives in Krakow.

We've been to Krakow, and it's a lovely city. Apparently, there's a Warsaw/Krakow difference in attitude that Poles take for granted. It would be like comparing New York City to Seattle. New Yorkers are all obsessed with time and efficiency while the people of Seattle prefer to have coffee before they move forward. (In Krakow it's tea.)

Anyway, what's going to happen at the end is obvious after the first 15 minutes of the film, but it's fun to watch how Magda and Krzysztof proceed during the rest of the movie.

The acting is good, the lead actors are attractive, and Krakow is a great background city.

This movie isn't going to threaten When Harry Met Sally as a major romantic comedy, but I enjoyed it. Love Parade has an abysmal 4.9 IMDb rating. I'm not sure why it's that low. I rated it 8.

P. S. Some reviewers complained about a dubbed version. Maybe that explains some of the low ratings. The version we saw was in Polish, with subtitles.

Unlike many new films that try to be "modern" this is a calm, well acted, gentle romance with the lovely setting in Warsaw. Funny and with lots of contrasting characters it was a pleasure to watch a film that wasn't full of swearing and explicit scenes, just a calm and heart rending story.

In about 20 minutes into the movie you just want to turn it off... The plot is very boring, the characters are shalhow and nothing makes sense... a totally waste of time!!

Watched this when I couldn't find another title of interest. If you like dogs and a light story, this is for you. Have a look, you might have a pleasant surprise.

Very natural, minimal self-consciousness, self-confident. She is the most natural looking and acting.

What a refreshing face and personality.

Yes, the story is a little cheesy at times, but appealing and engaging.
