My grandpa had a great sense of humor, and it got passed down to my mom and several of her siblings. They were fun to be around! I will look for that movie. I have cousins that have been back to visit the old village where they were from, and they stay in touch with the folks there still.
As for the accent, a year ago I was back home for a family wedding, and outside the hotel I struck up a conversation with a man while waiting for my husband to get the car. Anyway, he told me that I had a very pleasant accent and that he couldn’t quite place it, and wondered where I was from. I had to tell him that I was born and raised there, but had since moved to the Midwest, so my Southern accent has changed a bit. It was a neat conversation.
Yeah, when I moved from Maryland to Pennsylvania and years later, back again, I had to relearn my original accent! They both have the funny “o”, but slightly different!
Hope you find the movie. I think some platforms have it streaming. Here’s the trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FpKoFwZn-3o
It’s particularly wry that they were making fun of communism, which Czechoslovakia had just gotten out of, when idiots here want to go down that sinkhole now...
