[on
Jirina Jirásková] As a person she was a temperamental, funny and sarcastic lady, which is a well-known fact about her. What's more, she was a beautiful and elegant woman, well into old age. But she also had something I would call male humor. She was able to hold her own against the sarcasm of such great actors as
Milos Kopecký or soft innuendos of
Vlastimil Brodský. I was terribly lucky that I had the chance to see her as a young actor on stage in the 1980s.
