Now we\\u2019re getting into it. This is the real deep-level Criterion Collection stuff here. Legendary - but largely unknown in the U.S. - all-time Czech historic cinema:\\xa0Franti\\u0161ek Vl\\xe1\\u010dil's 1967 medieval epic Marketa Lazarova. \\xa0Feuding clans must contend with themselves, the Holy Roman Empire, and the occasional mad Christian preacher. Have we found our first hidden gem, or is this the first sign that we\\u2019ve doomed ourselves to 899 or so perplexing art films of questionably-earned reputations?\\xa0

If you'd like to watch ahead fro next week's film, we'll be reviewing and discussing Stephen Frears\\xa0My Beautiful Laundrette\\xa0(1985).
