Genuinely beautiful and artistic puppetry short films like Too Loud a Solitude certainly deserve more recognition. What a delight it was to be contacted by Greg Bachar, the Outreach Coordinator for the new film, Too Loud a Solitude. The film is based on Czech Writer Bohumil Hrabal’s beloved novella, Too Loud A Solitude (Příliš hlučná samota, 1976).
This is the first of Bohumil Hrabal’s work to be adapted by an American director. Hrabal is widely considered to be one of the greatest writers of the 20th century and has had two novels adapted to film by director Jirí Menzel, including the 1968 Oscar-winning Closely Watched Trains.
