Sažetak
If we were to classify all the films made by genre, the utmost content of celluloid tape would be on the side of melodrama. "Taken from cheap literature and boulevard theaters, melodrama has become the most popular type of film". Rajko Grlić's films enable theoretical considerations on the topic of melodrama and melodrama. Going into political, ideological, and sexual taboos, Grlić caused many controversies with his work. Despite everything, Grlić is an intense authorial individual, and his opus is original and autonomous. The topics he deals with, the tendency towards irony, the attitude towards morality. Also, the refinement in the portrayal of the characters places this director on a unique pedestal. "I often make love
movies, love stories, they interest me because they're just an indication of who we are, who people are, who heroes are''. He sets human destinies as a puzzle through which the entire social environment
is observed. Inspired by the Prague school, Grlić's films directly reflect the reality of the time in which they were made without trying to turn films into a means by which they will express the bitterness and condemnation of the social community. The supreme connoisseur uses character and narrative in every dramatic situation primarily as a means and not as a goal of expression. The director, whose work is called provocative and unusual, turns to melodrama in his films: You love only once and, It takes three people to be happy, in which he elaborates earnest problems and has universal influences.
