    Warsaw and polish women used to be called Paris of an Eastern Europe. The Vouge magazines from around 60 's-90's were used as an inspiration to make own clothes in a western style cos they were not available for them in a shops.

    Adult Poles may remember pre-war movie stars quite well actually. There was a show in public tv until 90's or 00's with these movies (full time) and very well commented. Somehow miraculously these tapes survived the war.

    Two actors from XX century that I know the names of are: Eugeniusz Bodo and Adolf Dymsza (fun fact: those 2 competed with each other).
    Eugeniusz Bodo (real name Bohdan Eugène Junod, born December 28, 1899, Geneva, Switzerland, died: October 7, 1943, Kotlas, Russia) - Polish film, revue, and theater actor. The son of a Polish mother and a Swiss father, director, screenwriter, dancer, singer, and film producer. One of the most outstanding and popular actors of interwar Polish cinema and theater.
    Adolf Dymsza (real name Adolf Bagiński, born: April 7, 1900, Warsaw, died: August 20, 1975, Góra Kalwaria) Known as Dodek, is a Polish cabaret and film actor. Considered the greatest comedian of Polish cinema of the 20th century. The pre-war and post-war "king of Polish comedy". According to an anecdote, the nickname "Dymsza" was invented by the actor's sister Zuzanna Skowron.

    After WWII there was something called Pewex where people could buy some things from West, like good quality jeans, for dollars. Of course it was nearly impossible to get dollars here but it happened. And also Poles often got very creative - they used what they had to imitate some bits of fashion - I still remember my aunt's skirt and jacket made of old curtains (I really loved how cool they looked, even when I saw them in late 90s, so over 20 years after she made them).
    People had to work with what they had so the mindset of problem solvers was and I think still is quite strong :)

      Pewex i Baltona. I remember the first 10 years after the fall of communism and that time when Poles did not want to buy Polish goods, even homogenized cheese, when it did not have foreign /English/, colorful inscriptions. Polish companies changed their names to English-sounding or Italian-sounding names to be able to sell anything. The Pole preferred to buy a 15-year-old "foreign" :) car rather than the still produced Polish Fiat 126 or Polonez.
      And media campaigns such as Teraz Polska did not help, because Poles could finally buy colorful, Western products. Previously, for 50 years they only saw them in movies.
      The same thing happened in Romania, Bulgaria, Russia, Hungary, Belarus, Ukraine, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and probably to some extent in the slightly more "free" Yugoslavia /ex-Yugoslavia/

      Getting the dollars was easy, don't lie. Poles, unlike other countries of the Soviet bloc, could maintain intensive contacts with the people in the West, including their relatives, from the end of the 1950s, and they also bought dollars from sailors and tourists. If someone needed dollars, he bought them (illegally, but the black market operated freely in Poland and the authorities were unable to restrict it). In addition to Pewex (dollar stores), there were also numerous private commission shops selling Western goods for PLN. This is because, at the end of the 1960s, the communist authorities in Poland allowed private imports of goods from the West (this was an exception in the communist bloc, but Poland differed from other communist countries in many respects: greater liberalism when it comes to culture, very wide access to Western culture, relatively free contact with the West, private farms instead of collectivization, private small business, plus a society that was very rebellious and hostile towards communism and the USSR, rebelling constantly and impossible to intimidate).

      So don't spread your shitty lies, maybe your family collaborated or stole to have dollars and goods so easily but that wasn't reality for ordinary honest Poles!!!!

    I love your channel and I have to say that your passion for poland makes me feel proud to be polish.
    Have you ever seen the movie "the Pianist"? It portrays the holocaust so well, its a very sad but somehow still a beautiful film. In English. If you haven't seen it It's an absolute must watch! If you haven't, would you consider doing a reaction to it?

    In the 1920s and 1930s the Polish cinematography, film making industry was developing really fast. Really plenty of movies were made in Poland then, with famous actors, who were the stars of that times, like Hanka Ordonówna or Eugeniusz Bodo, and many, many others. It was a period of rich cultural and artistic life in Poland and of great development of entertainment. The first Polish actress that made an international career was Pola Negri - she was a star in Hollywood, where she moved, especially in the times of silent movies, and still in the 1920s and 1930s. She was very well known worlwide. She had also love stories with Rudolf Valentino or with Charlie Chaplin. She died in the USA, in San Antonio, in 1987. Another Polish star of that times, very well known worlwide, was Jan Kiepura - a very famous opera and operetta singer (a tenor) and also an actor in some movies (he died in 1966 in the USA). He performed at the most prestigious stages of the world, like La Scala in Milan or Metropolitan Opera in New York, played also in some Hollywood movies (he signed a contract with Paramount Pictures). And in the earlier times, the real star, famous also in the USA, was Ignacy Jan Paderewski, a brilliant, known worlwide pianist. He made many big tournees across the whole USA, and other countries as well.

    Polish stars of film and music from the beginning of the 20th century: Jadwiga Smosarska, Hanka Ordonowie, Ina Benita, Eugeniusz Bodo, Adolf Dymesza, Stanisław Sielański. At that time, Polish films were really good, you do not believe that on UA-cam:" Jadzia' " , Piętro wyżej film, for now these two. It guarantees that you will have fun . Pola Negri It was a star mainly without the sound of cinema, while written higher from the beginning of the cinema with sound .
