About What Will You Do When You Catch Me?
Tadeusz Krzakoski, the director of a failing state-owned company, is married with problems. His mistress, the daughter of a Communist party bigwig, says she's pregnant and Tadeusz knows he'll have to marry her to save his reputation and his job. But divorce is never simple and Bareja's screwball comedies are never boring.
Directed by Stanisław Bareja, What Will You Do When You Catch Me? leans on a strong ensemble — Krzysztof Kowalewski, Bronisław Pawlik, Stanisław Tym — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1978.
