The film adaptation of a psychological horror, remotely reminiscent of Hitchcock's grotesques, captures the morbid atmosphere and, as it were, the unreal world of panoptical characters by an excellent masterpiece by Ladislav Fuks. Mr. Kopfrkingl became the life role of Rudolf Hrušínský and the tragicomedy The Cremator one of the most important films by Juraj Herz. The film, which is one of the most valuable of Czech films, was cursed by normalizers and could not appear in cinemas or television for many years. The author of the original short story, Ladislav Fuks, collaborated with Juraj Herz, the cinematographer was Stanislav Milota, and supporting roles were played by Vlasta Chramostová, Jana Stehnová, Ilja Prachař, Jiří Lír, Míla Myslíková and Vladimír Menšík. In 1969, Herz won the FITESU Trilobit Award for directing and Milota for the camera of this film. He received the film Silver Siren at the Czech and Slovak Film Festival in Sorrento.
