3 Comedies Set Around New Year’s Celebrations
New Year’s Celebrations are a time for happiness and spending some quality time with our loved ones. To celebrate the airing of Better Days, an Italian comedy about a group of friends who reunite to celebrate New Year’s Eve, we have selected three great movies set around this wonderful time of the year!
Four Rooms One of the best anthology films of the 1990s, Four Rooms is a production co- directed by established industry names including Quentin Tarantino, Allison Anders, Alexandre Rockwell, and Robert Rodriguez. The film’s stars also include A-list names like Antonio Banderas, Madonna, Tim Roth, and many more.
In the film, Ted is the new bellboy at a beautiful but crumbling hotel; he is not having a good time of it on New Year’s Eve, his first night on the job. In one room, a coven of witches is trying to summon the spirit of the goddess Diana. Another room, where Ted was supposed to deliver some ice, turns out to house an angry husband who is holding his bound-and-gagged wife at gunpoint. A third room is taken by a tough-talking gangster and his family. Room number four is where an arrogant film actor is holding a party.
New Year’s Day An uplifting production to enjoy in the dawn of a new year, this American comedy follows the story of a man returning to his sublet apartment to find the previous tenants, three offbeat young women, still in residence, under the mistaken belief that they have the apartment until the end of New Year’s Day.
Starring David Duchovny (the famous Fox Mulder in The X Files), New Year’s Day was entered into the main competition at the 46th Venice International Film Festival.
New Year’s Eve This production is the second in an unofficial trilogy of romantic comedy films directed by Garry Marshall, set on a one-day holiday and featuring an ensemble cast in a variety of stories. Quite similar to the first in this list in terms of an anthology picture, in New Year’s Eve, the lives of several couples and singles in New York City intertwine over the course of one night to celebrate love, hope, forgiveness, second chances and fresh starts.
The movie’s cast includes stars like Halle Berry, Jessica Biel, Jon Bon Jovi, Robert De Niro, Zac Efron, Ashton Kutcher, Sarah Jessica Parker, Michelle Pfeiffer, Hilary Swank and Sofia Vergara.

While the plot is not a direct adaptation of Agatha Christie’s 1939 whodunit And Then There Were None, the story draws from the structure of the novel.
Interview with Jiří Strach (Director)
What is the story behind the title? In English, the original title would literally translate something like cage or prison. A cage is an enclosed space from which there is no escape. Terrible cage beds were supposed to protect us from aggressive, mentally ill people, prisoners are sometimes thrown into cells to keep them from injuring themselves. Animals are often placed in cages before they are slaughtered. Who is setting the cage for whom, and who will finally end up inside‐ that is what our film is about. It is about naïve trust and non‐empathetic inhumanity.
A whole array of films has been made abroad about home entrapment. Some examples are both versions of Michael Haneke’s Funny Games or David Fincher’s Panic Room. Did you take any inspiration from there? No. It can sometimes happen that one begins unconsciously imitating others. I don’t want my films to be a Xerox copy of other films, I want them to be unique, to serve the screenplay, the story and the psychology of the characters.
An intimate drama for two main characters requires a responsible choice of actors. How did you finally decide on Jiřina Bohdalová and Kryštof Hádek? There aren’t many actresses left in the required age category. At her respectable age, Mrs Bohdalová remains in amazing shape and has more energy than many a 60‐year‐old. And Kryštof Hádek was the only possible choice for his part. But viewers will understand why after they see the film. That’s why we didn’t do any casting calls for his character. He was cast right away without the need for long consideration. Actually, I had already begun seeing him in the role during my first reading of the script.
EUROCHANNEL GUIDE JANUARY 2020 17 This film signifies Jiřina Bohdalová‘s return to the genre of drama after a long hiatus. Earlier on, the two of you had worked on such fairytale movies as Angel of the Lord 2, Lucky Loser or the comedy film Wrinkles of Love. How has your relationship changed, and did you have any concerns about this collaboration? When, as a beginning director, I first cast Mrs. Bohdalová and Jiřina Jirásková for the film Povodeň (The Flood), I was very afraid. Afraid whether I would be able to direct these two great women of Czech film and achieve the result I wanted, despite my inexperience. It quickly became apparent that Mrs. Bohdalová is absolutely wonderful and a complete professional, someone who respects the director when she sees that he knows what he wants. Ever since, we have had a great relationship, I might even say, a bit boastfully, we’re on friendly terms. I still have much to learn from her, she gives me a window into the experiences of a time before I was born.
For Jiřina Bohdalová, this was one of the most difficult films she has ever shot. Were you careful with her, and did you have to ask her permission for anything or be strict with her? We understand each other. There’s no need for strictness or boundary-setting on either side. We have shot more than one film together, so we don’t have to share our impressions verbally that much. Sometimes a gesture or a wink is enough, and we know right away what and how we can do better. People expect a star like Jiřina to behave like a diva, but it’s just the opposite. She approaches each shot with such humility. The only scenes I wouldn’t let her shoot involved doing things where she could hurt herself. We had a stunt double do those, and each time she said, “But I really can manage that myself”, I had to uncompromisingly say no. It would seriously not be worth her cracking her head on the toilet bowl or breaking a leg falling into the bathtub.
Does your film seek to find a remedy or simply offer viewers a journey? Is it even possible to find a remedy when the fundamental principle is inhuman and twisted from the start? Scripture says all that has happened once will happen again, there is nothing new under the sun. The only thing to do is point an issue out and, through the tragedy of a story, arouse the audience’s emotions so they do not take human, or rather, inhuman acts lightly or close their eyes to them, but stand up to them all the more emphatically if they encounter them in their own lives.
In the film, you deal with questions of faith, hope, forgiveness and atonement. Yet with each passing minute, the spiritual dimension fades. Were your favorite religious topics originally part of the screenplay, or did you add them there yourself? They were already in Marek Epstein’s screenplay. But I don’t think they fade. They just transform into something else. Hope always leads to forgiveness, and Mrs. Galová is capable of that despite all she has encountered. The fact that it in the film it appears futile does not mean we should give it up. After all, hope is often the source of our humanity.
There are many things about the film that are merely implied. How hard was the decision‐making process before the final edit? We spent more time in the editing room than usual this time fine-tuning visual rhythm and linking timelines. We didn’t want to be too explicit and often worked with suggestion and left certain things unsaid. But I believe in intelligent viewers. I have never underestimated their ability to read into the story and between the lines, and it has always paid off.

20 EUROCHANNEL GUIDE JANUARY 2020 3 Famous Movies Set in Snowscapes Everybody dreams of seeing the snow for the first time. It is almost magical when landscapes are covered in white and when the flakes settle in one’s hands. That magic has been a source of inspiration to numerous filmmakers who have set scenes of action, terror and adventure in the snow.
