Rudolf Hrušínský's return to filmmaking came after a five-year involuntary break following the film Oasis (1972). Fires on Potato Fields is a story about the search for a new existential certainty in the middle of profane, alienated society of the 1970s; it is supported by Hrušínský's reserved acting and an atmosphere created by impressive cinematography and music.

A solidly made Czechoslovak melancholy film about the life of one man, portrayed by the best Czechoslovak actor ever – Mr. Rudolf Hrušínský.

Although František Vláčil and his magic with the camera and creating atmosphere are clearly felt in the film, and despite all his mastery and the presence of Rudolf Hrušínský, who rarely disappears from the camera's viewfinder, this is a film that does not even remotely approach the qualities of Vláčil's films from the previous decade. Vláčil managed to get what he could from the problematic source material, but the 70s with hidden censorship and self-censorship in conjunction with a generally distorted era by various supervisory commissions and bans simply did their part. This film is worth seeing, but I can't help feeling that compared to Adelheid, it is only half of an experience. Overall impression: 60%.
