František Čáp (7 December 1913 – 12 January 1972), also known as "Franz Cap" in Germany, was a Czech film director and screenwriter. He directed 32 films between 1939 and 1970. In 1941 at the Venice Film Festival he won a commendation from the jury for his film ''Noční motýl'' (The Moth). At the 1946 Cannes Film Festival he won the Grand Prize for his film ''Muži bez křídel'' (Men without Wings).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Festival de Cannes: Men Without Wings )〕 As an already established professional, Čáp moved to Ljubljana in 1952, following an invitation by Branimir Tuma, director of Triglav Film. His first Yugoslav film, romantic comedy ''Vesna'' (1953), had elements of Heimatfilm and pre-World War II Czech and Austrian melodrama, and proved highly successful both artistically and commercially, as did its sequel ''Ne čakaj na maj'' (1957).〔 In 1954 and 1955 at the Pula Film Festival he won the Big Golden Arena for Best Film. In 1956 Čáp shot one of his best-known films, ''Die Geierwally'' (The Vulture Wally), based on the novel by Wilhelmine von Hillern, in Germany. ''X-25 javlja'' ("X-25 Reports", 1960), a World War II spy thriller set in Zagreb, saw extensive international theatrical release.〔 However, after his poorly received comedy ''Naš avto'' ("Our Car", 1962), Čáp was unable to find work in Yugoslavia, and he turned to directing films and television series in Germany and Austria.〔 ==Selected filmography== * ''Krok do tmy'' (1937) * ''Virginity'' (1937) * ''Men without Wings'' (1946) * ' (1952) * ''Vesna'' (1953) * ''Ne čakaj na maj'' (1957) * ''Sand, Love and Salt'' (1957) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「František Čáp」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
