Yes, Yes

About This Movie

Yes, Yes is an intriguing blend of comedy and romance, set against the backdrop of 1970s Poland. The pacing feels distinctly European, with a languid quality that mirrors the protagonist's half-hearted approach to his job as a censor. It’s got this fascinating contrast of light-hearted affairs—think nurses and pilots—interwoven with a more serious undertone. The scene where he tries to illegally emigrate within his own country really stands out; it’s a poignant moment that contrasts the absurdity of his escapades. The performances carry a certain weight, with a blend of charm and disillusionment that feels very authentic to the era. It’s this mix of humor and serious social commentary that makes the film distinctive, though the director remains a bit of an enigma.
