U gori raste zelen bor

This is a movie set in Yugoslavia during the second world war.The location is, i presume to be somewhere in Croatia as in the move they fight against the Ustasha-s.As the movie is from a communist country and as it is from 1971, you can't expect much in the terms of quality and acting compared to for exaplme Hollywood movies.

Acting is also poor because they didn't have the nessecary equipment and technology to make it look good, but it does add top the sense of realism.

The plot is also not that good, i would say that's it's more realistic than movie like. The story goes that a partisan named "Dikan" was assigned or he himself wanted to kill a traitor, who was now serving in the enemy army.Not much of a plot but it does seem realistic when you think about all the things partisans were doing in WW2, no traitor was forgiven.

As i mentioned before, acting is kind of poor, but that does not mean that trying to accomplish it was also bad.The acting may not be the best but trying it sure is.Actors who don't try usually just look lazy on camera, not the case here.When they do record a scene, it may not look good but you'll know that it is.

Lastly i want to talk about comedy in this movie, IT'S FULL OF IT.The character "Dikan" was a poor farmer and still acts as such, he makes jokes now and then but even without jokes it's still funny when he says something, because even though he's meant to act serious, his accent and his way of thinking end up just sounding like a bufoonery, even in completely serious situations. Dikan is not the only character that does this,many characters do it too but not to such a degree

Overall i find the movie really entertaining mostly because of it's comedy and people in 70's trying to act 10/10 would watch again

This is a movie about WW2, about partisans (fighting against Germans) and domobrans (I'm not sure if there is a translation for that), recruited by Germans to fight for them. But it is also a universal story about any civil war. When people who sing the same songs and who work on the same soil have to fight each other, it is the worst kind of war, because it is hard to let oneself be guided by hatred and/or principles.

Many moral dilemmas get into way of the heroes of this movie, and they often make decisions against their hearts. Some of the scenes are pure tearjerkers, especially the one about deciding whether to execute the domobran captain or not.

Needless to say, the acting is superb, especially that of Boris Dvornik and Ivica Vidović, but in very small roles you can also see Rade Šerbedžija and Fabijan Šovagović.

You won't have many opportunities to see this one, so if you get one, don't miss it!
