The Barrandov Studios
A Central European Hollywood
De onderstaande tekst is niet beschikbaar in het Nederlands en wordt in het Engels weergegeven.
The Barrandov Studios are one of the largest and oldest film studios in Europe. For more than 80 years so far, the studios have been the location of choice for over 2,500 Czech and International films. Barrandov’s founding fathers, the Havel brothers Vàclav and Milo. (the grandfather and uncle of later president Vàclav Havel), built the ‘Hollywood of Eastern Europe’ in the 1930s.
