VESNA/Austin Film Society

Last evening was the last night of the Southeast European Film Festival with Vera Mijojlic curating and introducing.  A beautiful Hollywood like film from Slovenia 1953 about a young BEAUTIFUL student and her 3 admirers (pretty good looking as well) who are all students of her math professor father.  In actuality the lead woman actor is an engineer who left acting after one more film to return to engineering "a real life career."  This is a romantic comedy and is described a s a "beloved classic."  Not difficult to understand why.
   Amidst so much conflict, sadness and death from this part of the world  it was a refreshing pleasure to watch this lovely comedy that ends with an upbeat mother inviting everyone home to her house to eat!  God, I just love that!
