Loves of a Blonde

Synopsis: A factory manager in rural Czechoslovakia bargains with the army to send men to the area, to boost the morale of his young female workers, deprived of male company since the local boys have been conscripted. The army sends reservists, mostly married middle-aged men - and the local beauty Andula, spurns those bold enough to try to win her, for the jazz pianist, newly come from Prague to perform. He seduces her and impresses her, telling her "most women are round, like guitars but you are a guitar by Picasso". Staying the night with him causes a lecture on a young woman's honour at her hostel so she throws over her other suitors and makes her way to Prague to find the young man. His protective Mamma and weary Pappa are not pleased when she arrives on the doorstep with her suitcase.

What happened yesterday

doesn't happen every day

As lovely as a dream

And I love her so, oh, yeah

And I love her so, oh, yeah

So this great love of mine

turned me into a hooligan

I whisper in her little ear

What lovely lips you have

Why aren't you kissing me?

And I love her so, oh, yeah

And I love her so, oh, yeah

So this great love of mine

turned me into a hooligan

I whisper in her little ear

What beautiful eyes you have

You're just kidding me

And I love her so, oh, yeah

And I love her so, oh, yeah

LOVES OF A BLONDE

I whisper in her little ear

What pretty hair you have

Why don't you play with it?

And I love her so, oh, yeah

And I love her so, oh, yeah

So this great love of mine

turned me into a hooligan

I whisper in her little ear

What a pretty blouse you have

Why don't you take it off?:

And I love her so, oh, yeah

And I love her so, oh, yeah

So this great love of mine

turned me into a hooligan

I whisper in her little ear

What a nice skirt you have

Why don't you slip it off?:

And I love her so, oh, yeah

And I love her so, oh, yeah

So this great love of mine

turned me into a hooligan

I whisper in her little ear

Let's go to the movies

It's a stupid movie

God, isn't that just beautiful?

Can I borrow it?

- Just for a minute, okay?

- All right.

Gee, it's so gorgeous.

- Is it gold?

- Of course.

The real thing?

You think he would give me

anything else?

Let me have it for a while.

Did you notice the stone?

It's a real diamond.

A real one?

Yes. Look how it sparkles.

I've never seen a real diamond.

He told me it was.

- He's nice, isn't he?

- Really nice.

Do you have his picture?

What color are his eyes?

Well... they're... sort of...

I don't really know.

Well, then...

You've got to put it higher.

He's half a head taller.

About like this?

That's it.

You look great together.

And what did you give him?

Nothing yet.

That's dumb, isn't it?

It is dumb. You've got

to give him something.

Yes, but what?

Is that yours?

What do you think you're doing,

hanging things on the trees?

You can't do that.

You can't just hang things up like that.

You'll dress up the whole forest.

I don't think it's going to hurt

the trees, is it?

No, but a deer could be going by,

you know,

and see a tie on a tree

and get scared.

Have you ever seen a startled deer?

No.

This is what he does.

See? Did you like it?

We could listen to his bleating

together some time.

What do you say?

Well, how about it?

I don't know.

He told me all about

those animals, see?

Like they don't live together

all the time, like people do.

And the animals

do it only once a year,

when it's mating time, see?

Then they're single again

and they just live on their own

without any commitments--

not like people.

Only the wild geese,

they're like people, see?

- They are?

- Yes.

They live together

for up to 120 years.

- They do?

- Isn't that something?

And imagine, when they...

like when he shoots down

either him, see, or her...

- The goose?

- Yes.

Then the other one remains alone,

even for a hundred years.

What about Tonda?

Well... he, when we went away...

we left the tie hanging there

and when we came back,

it was still hanging there,

so I guess he didn't come.

Will you go out with this guy?

I don't know.

The trouble is, he's married.

- He is?

- Yeah.

Fine, but we can't ignore the fact

that we need the people here.

Of course, that's right.

We need them.

If a girl has a real reason,

like if she has a boyfriend...

she'll get married,

if it's serious.

She'll marry him

and then maybe move away.

We can accept that as a reason,

but we can't let her come here

three times in a row

claiming she's getting married

when she isn't.

So I won't let her go for now.

Only after she gets married.

Keep in mind that

the factory must meet deadlines.

Yes, but for God's sake,

they also need to have a life.

That's a problem.

Look here,

if we look at the map,

then from our point of view

it's not advantageous to put

the army in this area,

to have troops here.

We understand your reasons.

Yes, of course.

We have the same duties

and problems in the army too.

You have yours and we have ours.

Look at that.

So, you have the map.

That's your standpoint, right?

That's your point.

But what you don't know

is that some 2,000 girls

live in this area.

Girls without boyfriends.

We've got 16 girls

to every boy here.

Girls are like rosebuds.

You get me?

That's youth.

And youth needs

what you used to need,

Comrade Major,

and myself,

and the others too, see?

- In our youth.

- That's right.

So you have your opinion...

and all you have is a map,

but I have the lives

of all those young people.

Think about it.

A girl works in the plant

for eight hours at the machine.

She leaves the factory.

Then what?

She gets something to eat... right?

And then she has nobody

to caress her.

Nobody to kiss her.

So now think what happens

if there's no war for 50 years.

No war-- which is what

we're all fighting for.

Including yourself, Comrade Major.

You're fighting for the same thing.

What if there's no war

for a hundred years?

I can only tell you

that I haven't said

my last word yet.

All I can do is pass along

your proposal

and we'll see

what can be done about it.

Pass it along? To whom?

What does that mean?

WELCOME THE PEOPLE'S ARMY

Battalion.

Follow me, company,

three men abreast. Line up.

All the fuss they made about it.

Yeah, and instead of boys,

we get reservists.

And so good-looking.

A bunch of grandfathers.

Shout it out.

Left, right...

Across the burnt earth

over bloody rivers

The vengeful regiments

march steadily on

Heart, law, eternity

are on our side

We march forward like time

Like a terrible wall of revenge

What a pretty daughter you have

You know very well

that I have a crush on her

Hey, lady, give us your blessing

For she's a girl made for love

What a pretty daughter you have

You know very well

that I have a crush on her

Look at those soldiers

over there.

Look at those girls

over there, man.

Oh, God. Who are they?

They're terrible.

- Why? Are they looking over here?

- Yeah. All the time.

What if they ask us to dance?

Oh, come on.

What's your problem?

Why couldn't it happen?

You're not ugly.

But come on, that's not possible.

No way could I--

Try it.

Ask one of them to dance.

Well, why not?

Look at them. This is just awful.

Let's get out of here.

So let's not look

in their direction.

But we aren't looking their way.

Yes, you keep looking over there.

Please, Andula,

stop looking at them!

Where should I look?

They're sitting right there.

Look here,

don't force yourself on them.

Wait till they show some interest.

What?

Don't be so pushy.

Wait for them to come over.

Handsome, isn't he?

The pianist.

He's handsome, isn't he?

So, boys?

- Damn it-- so?

- What, what... so what.

Well, so... what?

Gentlemen, we should send them

a bottle of wine.
