Actress Jiřina Bohdalová wrote the biography My Life Between Tears and Laughter. She does not avoid the hard times that her family was exposed to in the 1950s
“I don’t bother with it in the past. That I would sit down, look at the album and remember, by no means. I have a lot of work, in the cottage, at home, I will always find one. Only in this book will I remember the reader.” she said Czech Television.
“I’m surprised to read what I did. Firstly, it wasn’t about talking about roles, but most of all, I accepted everything to support my family in those days. It was my opportunity during the holidays when the actors went on vacation. “I was sitting on the phone waiting for it to ring. Because everyone was gone, it was my turn,” she added.
According to her, she never married a star. “I’m aggressive, that’s true, I don’t like anything, but that’s good, because if I used to be different, my life would go elsewhere,” she admitted.
In the book, she also returned, for example, to the court to delete her name from the list of StB collaborators or to last year’s last farewell to Karel Gott, where she gave a mourning speech.
