You can't say "Daisies" isn't original or that director Vera Chytilova lacks imagination even if you wish she would keep her 'originality' and her imagination under wraps. There is no plot to "Daisies"; two girls, (silly, childlike, dumb even), inhabit Chytilova's fantasy world getting up to all sorts of imaginary mischief. I can only hope neither of them are Chytilova's alter-ego.
It's certainly well made and there are people in this world who actually think this is one of the greatest films ever. It's like an extended Monty Python or Mack Sennett sketch minus the comedy and I suppose you do have to see it at least once to marvel or perhaps just gawp at what's on the screen though God knows what you will make of it. It's also quite short, which was something of a blessing.
