Finally saw a whole movie this week! Well this is the 2nd time I’ve seen this strange (yet Cool) movie:
Little Otik (2000) {Keep in mind, I say this in Czech and subtitles don’t always work}
This Czech film by Jan and Eva Švankmajer (Say that 5x fast! XD), is very surreal and set mainly in a poor apartment in somewhere in the Czech Republic. The main characters Karel and Bozena are childless, Bozena Really wants a child soon. But they can’t. And while on vacation in the countryside, Karel digs up a tree stump that vaguely looks like a child. Karel cleans it up and presents it to his wife who begins to treat it like a real baby. So much that she takes it home with them. Well, Bozena is obvisously a bit unstable and fakes a pregnancy and “gives birth” a month early.
Now the tree stump (Named Otik) is really alive and begins to eat everything it can grab. Karel wants to kill it, Bozena doesn’t, and a neighbor girl (Alžbětka ) discovers a fairy tale similar to the present situation and now knows what course this will be set on.
After eating some people (Both a postal and social worker), Karel locks up Otik in the basement. But instead of starving to death, the neighbor girl begins to feed him. **Spoilers happen from here to the end. So =P**
~I enjoyed this movie!~

And on Friday I made banana bread. 2 Whole Loaves. 1 is automatically mine. Reserved for work, to fill my poor stomach. And they ate it all! All the 6 other people in this house ate it! I only got a quarter of a loaf! T_T
