In Milos Forman's Oscar- and Golden Globe-nominated new-wave classic, a small-town girl named Andula gets seduced by a piano man from Prague after a particularly wild party. He plies her with all the right lines — then leaves, never to see her again. Until, that is, she shows up on the doorstep of parents' house in the big city and forces him to see the error of his rakish ways. Some might say Andula is every touring musician's worst nightmare; others would say that she's just what they deserve. Either way, she conveys a remarkable message of hope to the kind of hearts that only know how to break.
