James Bond conquers Czechoslovakia (or not?)
In the sixties, James Bond was everywhere. But even though it was a big worldwide phenomenon, it was hardly accessible to everyone. Czechoslovakia was a socialist country with a strict regulation system for film industry, so it is not surprising that James Bond films were not screened until the end of communist regime in the early nineties. But somehow James Bond had a notable presence in Czechoslovakia. It was a name known to average film fans. They heard about Sean Connery, Bond girls, and some of them could describe a detailed plot of the movies. How is it possible? This article discusses media discourse about James Bond, and how it created a basis for a familiarization with the James Bond film franchise.
The Czechoslovak film industry was centralized in the state-controlled institution between 1945 and 1990. Every imported film was approved by the state. Very broadly speaking, genre cinema from the Western countries wasn't ideologically desirable. Only around 5–10 British films were screened every year in Czechoslovakia in the '60s and '70s . Mostly they were kitchen sink dramas (A Taste of Honey or Saturday Night and Sunday Morning) or literary adaptations (Tom Jones, Far from The Madding Crowd). The action adventure genre was presented by French comedies (super popular Fan-Fan the Tulip and similar films) and by French art films (Breathless, Pierrot le fou). Important were leftist qualities of these movies. Approved were also some James Bond knock-offs, for example West German movies about FBI agent Jerry Cotton. Some people would say that James Bond and similar films could not be shown because of censorship, but that is not true. These films were not screened, because they just were not bought into the Czechoslovak distribution. There were, of course, reasons for that.
So what exactly was problematic in James Bond films? First, it was simply a country of origin. It was not just that Bond was British (= Western country). In Czech press were Bond movies often described as American, which is at least partly true: distribution rights were owned by the American company United Artist. Also values presented by the films were values that were in Czechoslovakia identified with capitalist countries, especially with the United States. But mostly, Bond wasn't a preferred type of a hero for a socialist audience. He was rich, obsessed with expensive cars and clothes, violent and sexual. He was not nice. He was not a socialist hero. A Polish film historian Jerzy Toeplitz wrote about a bad influence of James Bond books and films, and the article was translated for Panoráma zahraničního filmového tisku in 1966. He wrote that James Bond books are meant for a Western reader who is “succumbed to the amuck of accumulating consumer goods.” That is related to the fact that the film series itself was perceived as existing just with a goal of gaining money. A lot of articles were stating (and mocking) the way the films were used for merchandise.
James Bond was a perfect picture of a capitalist country: cruel, brutal, too erotic, sadistic and racist. Which are all fair points, but they weren't said with an aim to open any kind of discussion. The goal was purely ideological. “We must build a hero – either a man or a woman of our time who upholds our humane socialist morale – and pose him or her against this mythical hero who can do anything, nothing is a nuisance to him, who overcomes everything smoothly and – like James Bond, for example – has the right to commit senseless murders. This represents an ideological conflict with the bourgeoisie, one that is essential and without compromise.” (Film a doba, 5, p. 243).
Perhaps the most interesting aspects were constant mentions about racism. However a language that was used to describe racism in James Bond films was very racist itself. That is actually not surprising because Czechoslovak people had – and still have – lots of racist issues. Lubomír Oliva, one of prominent Czechoslovak film critics, described James Bond this way: “James Bond embodies a new type of Superman. He is coldy cruel and dismissive of the weak. He kills without remorse, because that is his job. Multiple scenes from the trilogy show racism, which is subconscious, automatic, and therefore more insidious. Is he the Tarzan among nuclear weapons? Or perhaps he is a different but more dangerous type of a primitive: a close relative of the Nazi Übermensch.” (Kino, 1965/11, p. 13). It is also very telling to look closely at the photos used in that article – Bond shoots, Bond fights, Bond smiles like a crazy lunatic while he kills people. The writing itself is very suggestive, evocative and even vulgar. Oliva loves to mention every specific and cruel thing Bond does in the films in details. One has to ask – what if the effect of listing all the bad things was quite opposite? Was not public more curious to watch it?
Maybe the screenwriter of many amazing Czech genre films (Adela Has Not Had Her Supper Yet, Lemonade Joe) Jiří Brdečka was a little bit fond of Bond, right? Well – not really. The most problematic part of Bond films, according to Brdečka, was their anti-communist aspect. A majority of the villains were communists and often from USSR, which was not acceptable. In Brdečka's article in Divadelní a filmové noviny he compared people of color to communists. James Bond films are full of prejudice against both, and that is simply bad. He also wrote: “This hero is deeply engaged and his engagement compels him to eat communists and colored people for breakfast – both at the same time if possible. This tells us that James Bond may not find fertile soil around these parts.” But Brdečka at least acknowledged that the films were really well made. And concluded with: “[The films] are excellent crap, with an emphasis on crap.” (Divadelní a filmové noviny, 1965/9-10, p. 10). Galina Kopaněva (another a very prominent and very popular film critic) took one step further. Not only the films themself are bad and stupid, the loving audience from Western countries is stupid as well: “[young people] devour the elegant Bond and his precise punches to the stomach. They loosen their ties a la Bond when they see the closeups of of Bond girls’ super-breasts, they bray with enthusiasm when there is an especially well done murder, they clench their fists as they watch crazy car chases on serpentine mountain roads, and they succumb to the pleasant shivers caused by torture scenes.” (Film a doba 1965/6, p. 323). The infantilization of audience was sometimes used while describing popular culture but was not broadly used for describing James Bond.
So, now we know that James Bond was bad for Czechoslovak people. Or at least according to the prominent film critics and state-run film industry. But how is possible that James Bond became a well known phenomenon in communist Czechoslovakia? It was not allowed to show James Bond in the cinemas but somehow people knew who James Bond is. There were also special namings for James Bond films – bondovky (that is used still today) and bondiády. People were obsessed with them, even though they did not have an option to watch them.
The most obvious answer for James Bond popularity is that he was a constant presence in the Czechoslovak film press. He was – in his invisibility – totally visible. Bond films were often mentioned (and sometimes analyzed) in the press targeted towards film professionals (Interpressfilm) or “smart” film fans (Film a doba, Divadelní a filmové noviny) and in popular film magazines (Kino). Almost every Czechoslovak film critic had an opportunity to see a James Bond movie at some international film festival or in a cinema abroad. That means that they wrote reviews for Czechoslovak magazines. But the reviews were not only about qualities of the films. More often the critics retold the plot with every possible detail (including the ending of the film). The magazines also published spreads about James Bond phenomenon in general (including lots of photos), interviews with actors or directors, short notes about upcoming films or about changing of the actors. The articles were a weird mixture of positive and negative. For example, you would have a long text about Sean Connery, and in this article author would write about how wonderful actor Connery is. But they would also mention that Connery deserves better than Bond. Or you would have a big spread about a James Bond movie premiere, and author would mention that film is spectacular and fun to watch, but also that it is still a low and decadent film.
Another way to get familiar with James Bond were the books by Ian Fleming. Three of them were published in Czechoslovakia: Dr No (Doktor NO, 1968; both Czech and Slovak version), View to a Kill (collections of short stories Ve jménu zákona, 1969) and Goldfinger (Zlatý fantóm, 1970, with a film cover and a lot of photos inside the book). The rest of the stories was published after 1990.
Of course in Czechoslovakia were some people that managed to see a James Bond film in other countries (travelling was complicated but not absolutely impossible). Ivan Soeldner said that people used to visit strip clubs while abroad, but suddenly it was a necessity to go see a James Bond film instead. He also stated that Bond (and strip clubs) are highly overrated (Kulturní tvorba, 1965/33, p. 14). But Bond films became word of mouth sensation – not just because they were entertainment films but because what they meant. Bond films were in a way similar to popular American music or Coca-cola. People heard so much about it that it became its own animal. The efforts to minimize and ridicule Bond in press actually created by mistake an unique mythos of James Bond – almost a symbol of anti-sovietism and anti-communism, something like a forbidden fruit.
James Bond obsession calmed down a little bit with a departure of Sean Connery. Some articles were still occasionally written but not with so much passion as it used to be in the '60s. But a new opportunity to see James Bond films arrived to a Czechoslovak audience in the '80s. Videorecorders became more affordable and in 1985 there were around 80 000 of them. For Czechoslovakia was a very important phenomenon an unofficial “pirate” dubbing. So suddenly, for some people was a possibility to borrow VHS with some movies that were unavailable before (including Bond films).
The communist regime ended in Czechoslovakia in 1989 and Czechoslovak film industry started to transform. The process was slow and messy. But finally, a first James Bond film was shown in Czech and Slovak cinemas: The Living Daylights in 1992 (in English original with Czech or Slovak subtitles). This film also had a special bonus for the viewers – it took place in Bratislava, Slovakia (but it was actually filmed in Austria). A lot of older Bond films also appeared in official VHS market, and the “black pirate market” was still quite proficient during the nineties.
The aim of this short overview was to show the ways James Bond appeared in the Czechoslovakia for the first time. It was probably very similar in other socialist countries (Poland, USSR,…). I think that it is important to ask questions about what Bond actually meant for a different types of audiences, and how it changed over time. The answers are still relatively vague (and maybe even banal), more answers could bring complex research in daily press or oral history.
My sources: I did a quick research using a lot of articles from the '60s till early '90s. Big thanks to National Film Archive that has everything scanned in the digital library.
Periodicals: Divadelní a filmové noviny, Film a doba, Filmové aktuality, Filmové informace, Filmový přehled, Interpressfilm, Kino, Kinorevue, Kulturní tvorba, Panoráma, Panoráma zahraničního filmového tisku, Záběr
I also used my own knowledge of Czechoslovak film industry (so you need to trust me that it is all true). I tried to put all this together, and the conclusions are my own. Hopefully, it all makes sense (I didn’t went too much into details because well, this is not some kind of complex research, it is just something I did for fun)
And thank you to amazing @slippingintostockings who helped me with the translation of Czech reviews from the sixties.

Music and drugs
(Okay, I know that my post is long, sorry!)
What does Brian Jones, Kurt Cobain, Louis Armstrong, The Beatles, Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin, Hilel Slovak, Eminem and Jimi Hendrix have in common ? Well, they all took drugs at one point and some died of this. That will be my subject for this week: drugs and especially the relationship between drugs and creativity. I focused only on three aspects (otherwise there’s too much to say about it) which appears as questions below. In the past four decades there have been almost 300 drug-related celebrity’s deaths of whom 125 were musicians (about 38.6%). I thought it was interesting to focus a little on that, the questions it raised and how people have answered it.
I read many articles and I tried to sum it up but I put all the links so you can check for yourself if you like.
https://www.bhpalmbeach.com/the-myth-of-drugs-and-creativity-mental-illness-role-in-the-using-artist/
https://www.psypost.org/2018/01/drugs-make-people-creative-50524
https://addictionresource.com/guides/substance-abuse-among-artists/
https://www.newbeginningsdrugrehab.org/resources/opiates-and-musicians-a-cruel-trend-of-drug-abuse-and-musicians/
http://theconversation.com/the-link-between-drugs-and-music-explained-by-science-89132
First of all, Why does musicians take drugs?
The answer seems pretty obvious (and it is), there are many reasons some of which are:
-The environnement (you are most likely to take drugs if you are surrounded by people taking drugs. It is the idea that the moment, the place and the people you are with determines if you are going to take drugs or not. It reported that musicians are more exposed to drug abuse.)
-Wealth, Fame and image (drugs are expensive and famous musicians are rich so the more money you have, the more you will consume = more chances to become an addict.)
-Youth
-Peer Pressure
-Because drugs becomes an addiction
-Diminish the stress
-Helps coping with performances and concerts
-For some, it helped composing songs, many artists composed and wrote songs under drugs
There is a myth about it, drugs are supposed to help creativity, but is it true?
There is controversy about this myth. Some says that drugs cannot help creativity and other disagree, I guess we will never have a fixed answer. In an interview, Stephen King said that he thinks it is more a way for addicts to justify their use of drugs rather than a real tool for creativity (he has nothing to do with music but his point is interesting.) Some scientists said that it does not really help creativity even tough it seems to help some to master their art. For the neuroscientist David Linden « there is a link between addiction and factors that promote creativity. » however Eminem tends to disagree because to him it wasn’t the case, he preferred « watching TV rather than making tracks » while he was high. However, « There was some evidence that those with higher creativity are more likely to use drugs. And there was some evidence that drugs could significantly alter a person’s stylistic approach, without necessarily increasing creative production. ». In fact, it’s creativity that leads some people to take drugs but not really the lack of creativity. Drugs are supposed to make the quality of music better, it might change the experience of listening to music: « that the drug enhances music-evoked emotion, with volunteers more likely to report feelings of wonder, transcendence, power and tenderness. Brain imaging studies also suggest that taking LSD while listening to music, affects a part of the brain leading to an increase in musically inspired complex visual imagery. »
But actually, would some musical « genre » exist without drugs?
The answer is no, and some songs would not too. For instance, psychedelic rock (popular in the 60s, famous among the hippie movement) was inspired by hallucinogens or expanding drugs such as marijuana and LSD. It was characterized by the use of feedback, long solos (and longer songs), an intense volume and the use of electronics (the use of phasers -to give an electronic sound effect- and flangers - also an effect created by a superposition of 2 audio signals one of which is a little delayed so the volume of some frequencies are reduced whereas others are increased.) For instance, The Doors and The Jefferson Airplane are psychedelic rock bands.
https://www.addictions.com/explore/drugs-in-music-analyzing-drug-references-in-musical-genres/ Have a look at the statistics in this article, you might be surprised (or not)…
…And actually, the « genre » mentioning the most drugs is Country, no surprise. I mean, just look at those titles….:
« alcohol and pills » Fred Eaglesmith (1997)
« Whiskey, Weed and Women » Hank Williams III (2002)
« In the arms of cocaine » (1983) Hank Williams Jr.
« cocaine Carolina » Johnny cash (1975)
To conclude, there is no ‘real’ answer for this link between creativity and drugs because it depends on many things, starting with the person that takes it. Taking too much drugs is not an important tool for creativity and yet many artist have fallen for it. However, drugs participates a little in the creation process in the way that it alters the perception of music and was proven efficient for some musicians who were well-inspired, wrote many songs thanks to it and created new « subgenres » of music.

Camille Claudel’s 155th Birthday
Born 8 December 1864 - Fère-en-Tardenois, Aisne, Second French Empire
Died 19 October 1943 (aged 78) - Montdevergues, Vaucluse, Vichy France
Camille Claudel (French pronunciation: [kamij klɔdɛl] (listen); 8 December 1864 – 19 October 1943) was a French sculptor who died in relative obscurity, but has gained recognition for the originality and quality of her work.[1][2] Claudel is known for such sculptures as The Waltz, The Mature Age, and others.
The national Camille Claudel Museum in Nogent-sur-Seine opened in 2017, and the Musée Rodin in Paris has a room dedicated to her works.
Creative period
Study with Alfred Boucher
Claudel was fascinated with stone and soil as a child, and as a young woman she studied at the Académie Colarossi, one of the few places open to female students.[5] She studied with sculptor Alfred Boucher.[6] (At the time, the École des Beaux-Arts barred women from enrolling to study.)
In 1882, Claudel rented a workshop in Paris with Jessie Lipscomb, Emily Fawcett and Amy Singer, the daughter of John Webb Singer, whose foundry in Frome, Somerset, made large-scale bronze statues that are familiar today. Several prominent Frome works are in London, including the Boadicea group on the Embankment, Cromwell, which graces the lawn in front of the Houses of Parliament, and the figure of Justice atop the Old Bailey. General Gordon on his camel at Chatham Barracks was also cast in Frome, as were the magnificent eight lions that form part of the Rhodes Memorial in Cape Town. Claudel visited Frome and the families of her fellow sculptors. All of these English friends had studied at the South Kensington Schools – that would become the Royal College of Art – before moving to Paris to be at the Academie Colarossi, where they had all met. Camille obviously felt very at home with Amy’s family in Frome and prolonged her stay.[7]
Alfred Boucher had become Claudel's mentor, and he also provided inspiration and encouragement to the next generation of sculptors such as Laure Coutan. Claudel was depicted by Boucher in Camille Claudel lisant,[8] and later she sculpted a bust of her mentor.
After teaching Claudel and the other sculptors for over three years, Boucher moved to Florence. Before he left he asked Auguste Rodin to take over the instruction of his pupils. Rodin and Claudel met, and their artistic association and the tumultuous and passionate relationship soon began.
Auguste Rodin
Claudel started working in Rodin's workshop around 1884 and became a source of inspiration for him. She acted as his model, his confidante, and his lover. She never lived with Rodin, who was reluctant to end his 20-year relationship with Rose Beuret.
Knowledge of the affair agitated her family, especially her mother, who already detested her for not being a boy and never approved of Claudel's involvement in the arts.[9][10][11] As a consequence, Claudel left the family home.
In 1892, after an abortion, Claudel ended the intimate aspect of her relationship with Rodin, although they saw each other regularly until 1898.[12]
Le Cornec and Pollock state that after the sculptors' physical relationship ended, she could not get the funding to get many of her daring ideas realized, because of gender-based censorship and the sexual element of her work. Claudel thus had to either depend on Rodin to realize them, or to collaborate with him and let him get the credit as the lionized figure of French sculptures. She also depended on him financially, especially since her loving and wealthy father's death. This allowed her mother and brother, who were suspicious of her lifestyle, to keep the money and let her wander around the streets dressed in beggars' clothes.[13]
Claudel's reputation survived not because of her once notorious association with Rodin, but because of her work. The novelist and art critic Octave Mirbeau described her as "A revolt against nature: a woman genius." Her early work is similar to Rodin's in spirit but shows imagination and lyricism quite her own, particularly in the famous The Waltz (1893).
Louis Vauxcelles states that Claudel was the only sculptress on whose forehead shone the sign of genius like Berthe Morisot, the only well-known female painter of the century and that Claudel's style was more virile than many of her male colleagues. Others, like Morhardt and Caranfa, concurred, saying that their styles have become so different, with Rodin being more suave and delicate and Claudel being vehement with vigorous contrasts, which might have been one reason that led to their break up, with her becoming ultimately his rival.[14][15][16]
Claudel's onyx and bronze small-scale La Vague (The Wave) (1897) was a conscious break in style from her Rodin period. It has a decorative quality quite different from the "heroic" feeling of her earlier work.
Legacy
Though she destroyed much of her work, about 90 statues, sketches and drawings survive.
Some authors argue that Henrik Ibsen based his last play, 1899's When We Dead Awaken, on Rodin's relationship with Claudel.[53][54][55][56]
In 1951, Paul Claudel organized an exhibition at the Musée Rodin, which continues to display her sculptures. A large exhibition of her works was organized in 1984. In 2005 a large art display featuring the works of Rodin and Claudel was exhibited in Quebec City (Canada), and Detroit, Michigan, in the US. In 2008, the Musée Rodin organized a retrospective exhibition including more than 80 of her works.
The publication of several biographies in the 1980s sparked a resurgence of interest in her work.
Camille Claudel (1988) was a dramatization of her life based largely on historical records. Directed by Bruno Nuytten, co-produced by Isabelle Adjani, starring herself as Claudel and Gérard Depardieu as Rodin, the film was nominated for two Academy Awards in 1989. Another film, Camille Claudel 1915, directed by Bruno Dumont and starring Juliette Binoche as Claudel, premiered at the 63rd Berlin International Film Festival in 2013. The 2017 film Rodin co-stars Izïa Higelin as Claudel.
Composer Jeremy Beck's Death of a Little Girl with Doves (1998), an operatic soliloquy for soprano and orchestra, is based on the life and letters of Camille Claudel. This composition has been recorded by Rayanne Dupuis, soprano, with the Slovak Radio Symphony Orchestra.[57] Beck's composition has been described as "a deeply attractive and touching piece of writing ... [demonstrating] imperious melodic confidence, fluent emotional command and yielding tenderness." [58]
Seattle playwright S.P. Miskowski's La Valse (2000) is a well-researched look at Claudel's life.[59][60]
Composer Frank Wildhorn and lyricist Nan Knighton's musical Camille Claudel was produced by Goodspeed Musicals at The Norma Terris Theatre in Chester, Connecticut in 2003.[61]
In 2005, Sotheby's sold a second edition La Valse (1905, Blot, number 21) for $932,500.[62] In a 2009 Paris auction, Claudel's Le Dieu Envolé (1894/1998, foundry Valsuani, signed and numbered 6/8) had a high estimate of $180,000,[63] while a comparable Rodin sculpture, L'éternelle Idole (1889/1930, Rudier, signed) had a high estimate of $75,000.[64]
In 2011 world premiere of Boris Eifman's new ballet Rodin took place in Saint-Petersburg, Russia. The ballet is dedicated to the life and creative work sculptor Auguste Rodin and his apprentice, lover and muse, Camille Claudel.[65]
In 2012, the world premiere of the play Camille Claudel took place. Written, performed and directed by Gaël Le Cornec, premiered at the Pleasance Courtyard Edinburgh Festival, the play looks at the relationship of master and muse under the perspective of Camille at different stages of her life.[
In 2019, to mark the 155th anniversary of Claudel's birth, Google released a Google Doodle commemorating her.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camille_Claudel
Camille Claudel née à Fère-en-Tardenois (Aisne) le 8 décembre 1864, et morte à Montdevergues (Montfavet - Vaucluse) le 19 octobre 1943, est une sculptrice et artiste peintre française.
Collaboratrice, maîtresse et muse du sculpteur Auguste Rodin2, sœur du poète, écrivain, diplomate et académicien Paul Claudel, sa carrière est météorique, brisée par un internement psychiatrique et une mort quasi anonyme. Un demi-siècle plus tard, un livre (Une femme, Camille Claudel d'Anne Delbée, 1982) puis un film (Camille Claudel, 1988) la font sortir de l'oubli pour le grand public.
Son art de la sculpture à la fois réaliste et expressionniste s'apparente à l'Art Nouveau par son utilisation savante des courbes et des méandres.

(Because I really love 70s music tropes)
Robert Sloboda - Blonde medium length hair, prominent stubble, occasional amber tinted sunglasses, black clothes (the edgy bastard)
Once an aspiring rock player from the mid 60s whose ambitions were cut short by sleazy executives and vicious fans, he prefers to work on experimental albums to get back his creative liberty. These include the serious heartbreak album Cage of Thorns to the fast paced rocker piece Nitro Glistenin’; and the avant-garde concept album Druid.
“I made Druid not out of any earthly or spiritual desire. I liked old European crap, and it was fun to annoy very serious critics.”
A jaded hardass but a professional at his craft, he’s a valuable musician providing keyboards, vocals, and general production for up and coming artists needing a big name to help them up. While generally a rock man, he’s provided financial and marketing support for bands that feel genuine to him, whether it’s punk, soul, heavy metal, folk, or new wave. In return he has an immense disdain for rock that feels too pompous and impersonal.
(Other facts)
Even in comical or bleak albums, he adds in at least one honest piece about romance, however bittersweet, as he calls it the main thing keeping him from being too hardened.
Had a bad run with drugs back in the day, so while he’s not straight-edge, he’s incredibly wary about the hedonism of the era.
Came from a working class Slovak family in Pittsburgh and developed a strong knack for tenacity despite his perfectionism kicking in.
Loves making songs with fantasy references, but knowing how it’s largely frowned upon, he inserts them in the ends of his songs to catch listeners off-guard.
Always BS’s his interviews from big name magazines and reporters and be a general smart-ass, but is much more truthful with smaller organizations.
