Bohumil Hrabal. An affectionate profile of the man considered by many to be Czechoslovakia's greatest living writer. Now aged 78 and in poor health, Hrabal first became famous in the west through the Oscar-winning film Closely Observed Trains. In tonight's film Hrabal and his close collaborator, director Jiri Menzel , reveal the gentle humour, melancholy sensuousness and frustrated eroticism at the heart of his world.
