The Great Cheese Conspiracy
Václav Bedřich | Czechoslovakia, West Germany | 1986 | 50 min
Three mice lived in an old cinema. They lived off what they could find and every day they watched films for free. As the cinema often showed classic films such as The Great Train Robbery, the mice were fed up with eating peanuts the cinemagoers dropped and nibbling on the snacks in the projection room. One day Marvin, the tough leader of the mouse gang, said ‘We’ve seen dozens of films where they rob mail cars and safes. We can do better,’even though none of them had ever left the cinema before and they knew the outside world only from the silver screen. Regardless, these three little adventurers began planning the biggest cheese heist of all time. That was the beginning of a great adventure and everything that goes with it – such as Giovanni the cat, living in a cheese shop. In the end, the mice even got involved with the police.
This kind, humorous and thrilling mid-length adaptation of a French book will undoubtedly captivate even grown-ups. The protagonists of the film are brilliantly voiced by Josef Dvořák, Petr Nárožný and Luděk Sobota. Director Václav Bedřich made the film in co-production with West Germany, a feat not accomplished by many productions before the fall of the communist regime in Czechoslovakia.
