Movie Reviews of The Shop On Main Street - Criterion Collection

Movie Review: If you're Slovak, you want to see this film!!
Summary: 5 Stars

If your parents or grandparents emigrated to the USA from Czechoslovakia, you will want to see this movie. It gives you a good picture of life in a small slovak village. Although the theme is about treatment of the Jewish population during the Nazi Occupation, the film gives you a good picture of how our Slovak ancestors lived their lives in the 1940's.

Summary of The Shop On Main Street - Criterion Collection

An inept Czech peasant is torn between greed and guilt when the Nazi-backed bosses of his town appoint him "Aryan controller" of an old Jewish widow's button shop. Humor and tragedy fuse in this scathing exploration of one cowardly man's complicity in the horrors of a totalitarian regime. Made near the height of Soviet oppression in Czechoslovakia, The Shop on Main Street features intense editing and camera work which won it the Academy Award? for Best Foreign Film in 1965.
