Maybe the only "Czechoslovak First-Republic-style comedy" made in Britain, or better Karel Lamač's shooting of a British remake of the Czech film Yesterday We Had Sunday. The result is partly a social drama, partly a comedy of errors and partly a gangster film, which is partly naive and partly mean. (Summer Film School)

It is something of a historical paradox in that while Anny Ondra had already made a name for herself in England at the end of the 1920s, Karel Lamač, her partner in the film business, did not follow her until World War II. It must also be said that his feature films, which complemented his documentary and anti-war work, are characterized by many positives. The fairy tale passages of the lovelorn Moya, played by the delightful Barbara White, are charming, but the real acting performance is by the incredibly vivacious greengrocer Marjorie Rhodes, with a manner that could boldly rival all the grocers at the Egg Market. And the better the experience is the less it is possible to feel the influence of Czech filmmakers with foreign films in foreign lands. I also have to mention one of the many favorite features of Lamač's films - the comic black man with the humor of the last laborer. The kind that we have seen in the past, for example in Baby (1932) or in the jazz variant in Forbidden Love (1938).
