Hubal (film)
Hubal is a Polish historical film directed by . It was released in 1973. History According to the director's recollections, at the beginning of the 1970s, he was summoned to the Ministry of Culture, where he was presented with a ready-made script by Jan Józef Szczepański, at the same time offering to make a film. Bohdan Poręba accepted the offer, but he forced the removal of a few scenes (the commander's romance with a peasant woman and the execution of German prisoners of war). The finished film did not avoid censorship problems – the intention was to cut out a scene from the morning mass on Christmas, during which the hymn '' Boże, coś Polskę'' is chanted. The director avoided it thanks to the opinion of the Minister of National Defense, General Wojciech Jaruzelski, who succinctly praised the film after an improvised screening. The film has no scriptwriter in the lead, because Jan Józef Szczepański withdrew after the changes introduced by the director. Plot Legendary ...
