Krystyna Janda in Dublin

A Mind @ Play has an account of a personal appearance by the great Polish actress Krystyna Janda at Dublin’s National Gallery last Saturday – and also includes the revelation that she has a blog (albeit, unsurprisingly, in Polish).

At some point in the next fortnight my Wajda survey should have reached Man of Marble (Człowiek z marmuru, 1976), not just her breakthrough role but arguably the strongest female character in any Wajda film.

    Thanks for the blog link. Looking forward to reading your thoughts on Man of Marble.

  2. I’m looking forward to seeing it again – especially in the light of all the genuine Stalinist-era documentaries I’ve been watching.
