Foolish Years
The ''Foolish Years'' () is a Yugoslav film series spawned from the 1977 movie of the same name. The original film and its nine sequels were all directed by Zoran Čalić between 1977 and 1992. In Yugoslavia, the entire series would eventually become widely known by an informal name, ''Žikina dinastija'' (''Žika's Dynasty)'', actually the title of its 7th film (sixth sequel) released in 1985 that parodied the American TV soap opera ''Dynasty'', which was enormously popular throughout Yugoslavia in the mid-1980s. What would eventually turn into a film series began in 1977 with ''Lude godine''. Centered around a teenage couple, Boba (Vladimir Petrović) and Marija (Rialda Kadrić), one of the film's goals was addressing societal issues such as unprotected sex and teen pregnancy. However, the ensemble of supporting characters—most notably the respective in-laws Živorad "Žika" Pavlović ( Dragomir Bojanić Gidra) and Milan Todorović ( Marko Todorović)—captured audiences' atten ...
