Avis à la une
Beautiful women, legendary Bata Stojkovic and probably the best role of Slavko Stimac. Movie that never gets old.

This is not a review but a correction of the English title, which is inaccurate. "Elusive" means difficult to find, catch, or achieve, difficult to remember or recall,indefinable, intangible, impalpable, or ambiguous. Serbian word "varljivo" primarily refers to frequently changing weather. This is quite clear from the movie dialogue when the judge mentions the summer and his young daughter characterizes it as "varljivo" because there are frequent rain showers. Figuratively, she might also imply the word to mean the political instability because of serious student protests all over Europe including Belgrade. She became interested in politics since she had a crush on a much older student who became involved in the protests.
The title would be much more accurate if the epithet used in front of "summer" were to be one of the following: precarious, variable, unstable, unbalanced, volatile.

This whole film is basically a series of episodes where a horny youngster chases women. It is presented as a kind of coming of age story, but it's just a minimalist script with episodic structure. There are funny moments in it, but on the whole it's a rather empty experience. It is particularly problematic because it is ostensibly a family film, while in reality watching countless scenes with erotic content is likely to make a family viewing of the film a nightmare. Totally overrated film, and quite annoying at times. An irritating protagonist, too. I guess most people like it because of the iconic bakery scene, involving some hefty breast squeezing action.
A communist romantic comedy who proves again in communism there's no such a thing as censorship. Whose who say there was censorship in communism are brainwashed by capitalistt propaganda.

I have watched this movie several times, and it is never boring to see it from time to time..Set in 1968. in the time of student uprising in the former Yugoslavia, it's a really fine comedy, with nicely portrayed characters, and lots of very funny scenes/situations..Me and my family laughed in tears :o)This is one of the best Yugoslavian comedies shot after the WWII and before the war in 1991. Some scenes are shot in my hometown Subotica.:o)Comedies in which Danilo "Bata" Stojković acts are the one you shouldn't miss to watch. I recommend it to people from all over the world to watch it if they can purchase/get it.. I am sure that you won't be disappointed.
