Summary
Who wouldn't know the bold answer, "We are all Gogo". To this, one immediately thinks of the secret slogan "towel off, towel off" and the confused Mrs. Harrington, who accommodates George Camel in her guesthouse. He is the main character of the story. As a shy teacher, he tries in vain to gain the respect of his pupils, and as a dunce, George also works in the editorial office of the local magazine, where he tries to get his verse published. Little does he know that the unexpected interest shown to him by the charming editor Sabrina is about to arouse the jealousy of the cartoonist Henry. However, things take a turn. Coincidence plunges the innocent and naive George into a battle between two gangster gangs vying for a million dollar check, and suddenly he is considered a murderer, especially when a dead body falls out at him every time he opens the door.
Writer and film screenwriter Miloš Macourek contributed to two memorable gangster comedies - Who Wants toKillJessie (1966), directed by Václav Vorlíček, and FourMurdersAre Enough,Darling( 1970), directed by Oldřich Lipský. In both cases, the personality of the artist Kája Saudek also entered the play. While in Jessie the ordinary Czech world is infected with characters and elements from the "American" cartoon series, Oldřich Lipský's film unfolds entirely within the framework of comic exaggeration. Both films use embedded cartoon elements, but Macourek and Lipsky have created a complete fictional world set in the fictional "Western" country of Bonzania. The comic-cartoon crazy comedy rampantly and at a brisk pace, teems with visual and formal ideas and absurd dialogue. Behind the barrage of gags, however, there is a palpable desire to escape - at least in comic fiction - behind the Iron Curtain of the emerging normalising reality.
