... A Pátý Jezdec Je Strach (1964)
Member Rating:  
When the Nazis occupied Czechoslovakia, the first thing to happen was the disaffection of all the Jews in professional positions. No longer able to practice medicine, a Jewish physician begins working in a warehouse, biding his time until the war is over. A fellow tenant appeals to the physician to help a political fugitive who has been shot. Forced into a moral conflict, the physician takes the unselfish road and treats the injured man. Unfortunately, not everyone appreciates the sacrifice he has made and the movie depicts the Catch-22 of doing what you have to do and still suffering for it. ~ Tana Hobart, Rovi

    This movie was nothing like the description! It was boring and made no sense. It was just a bunch of images thrown together and no plot! It can't get much worse than that!

    Interesting movie but only those into foreign films will appreciate it. This has a Kafka bent to it. Not an easy movie to watch but it certainly could not have been an easy time to live under such conditions. . The title is very appropriate.
