Matěj works for a farmer and is in love with his boss’s daughter, Majdalenka. But the greedy man drives him out. Matěj makes his way as far as the royal castle, where a grand contest is being held for the hand of Princess Rozmarýna. Whoever solves three riddles will have her hand in marriage. Matěj is a clever lad, and the princess’s tasks are as easy as pie for him. The king grows fond of the bright young man but, to the general, the lady-in-waiting and the steward, Matěj just means trouble. Particularly when he befriends the courageous and honest soldier Ondra, who is secretly in love with Princess Rozmarýna. They devise a trap which will rid them of Matěj. But he, with the aid of his friend Ondra, uncovers all their tricks. The princess finally realises who truly loves her and, as a result, also solves the “loveliest riddle”. Matěj, however, is keen to set off back home to his beloved Majdalenka... (texte officiel du distributeur)

Je pense avoir vu deux contes de Troška et je n’ai aucun a priori envers les autres, mais ce petit dernier est incroyablement barbant, pitoyable et idiot. Il est insipide, les acteurs sont pathétiques, Medvecká fait vraiment pitié et Táborský encore plus. Si seulement il y avait plus de réalisateurs tels que Jiří Strach !

The Loveliest Riddle falls again into the picturesque section of South Bohemian caressing and references to the popular period of neutral peasant baroque. This film does not do as good of a job of combining two Czech fairy tales together as some other films have done in the past. For the first time, however, Troška does not look for any downright dark themes in Drdov’s writing, instead emphasizing characters from other times. Medvecká's French speaker in particular is a classic educator acceptable across the centuries. Dolanský, Potměšil, and Táborský only fulfill the set scheme, but the real surprise is the pleasant performance by Veronika Kubařová.

At first, The Loveliest Riddle seemed to be a fairly tolerable Troška achievement, but the fairy-tale stew, which it became more and more over time, was not very good in the end. The plot mixes all sorts of things together, the jokes are not funny, and we also see some of the director's traditional clamorous scenes and characters that are stupid to the point of it being painful (this time it was the robbers instead of the devils). But what got my blood pumping the most was the way the characters spoke. I give two stars for the sympathetic duo of Jan Dolanský and Veronika Kubařová and for the costumes.
