Milos Forman

As a child of the war, Milos Forman lost his parents, who were deported to Auschwitz, and he and his brothers were raised by the rest of his family. He studied film at the Academy of Music and Dramatic Art in Prague and made his first feature film, The Ace of Spades, in 1963. A bittersweet comedy, a mixture of tenderness and irony, as in Les Amours d’une blonde (1965), for which the Americans took notice. In 1967, his provocative satire Au feu les pompiers! earned him the wrath of the censors in his homeland. While in Paris to negotiate his first Hollywood contract, the Czech studios fired him on the grounds that he had left the country illegally. With the Prague Spring and its winds of revolt, Milos Forman left Europe for the United States.
