I want to compare the Czech film Closely Watched Trains by Milos Forman which was made during the Czech New Wave to Boredom in Brno a Czech film made in 2003 and how their portrayals of gender roles and relationships between men and women differ because of the time periods they were made in- during and after the rule of Communism. I am willing to consider other films as well if anyone else is interested in this.
Here is a trailer for Closely Watched Trains:

I couldn't find a trailer for Boredom in Brno so here is an article on it:

Hey guys, do you mind if I join your group? I'm interested in Czech films as well. I just recently saw "I served the king of England" and was surprised at how different it is from American films.
