Closely Observed Trains (Why We Love Cinema)
Best Foreign Language Film, Oscars 1968.
Due to its funny and enjoyable approach to the genre of the initiatory quest, an apprentice station master of a village seeks his first sexual experience and falls into depression when he does not succeed.
"Focusing not on the battlefield, but on the life of a naive young station master. With a combination of humor and poignant coming-of-age moments, the film beautifully explores themes of innocence and the personal effects of war." (1001 Films).
