EN: Today (17.12.2016.) on Croatian TV, there is a re-run of one of the most famous and most viewed croatian movies ever, “One Song a Day Takes Mischief Away“ (in croatian it is „Tko pjeva, zlo ne misli“, the literal translation being „The one who sings, thinks of no harm“), subtitled "a love comedy with singing", and structured in the form of collage journal. It was filmed back in 1970, and takes place in the Šafranek family apartment in the old town of Zagreb, in their backyard, nearby town of Samobor, Maksimir park and Sava beach, and captures how people lived in the so-called "Old Zagreb" in the 30's.
The unforgettable Relja Bašić is cast as Fulir, who does everything in his power to seduce young and attractive Mrs. Šafranek, who feels that she withers in the marriage with her much older husband, Franjo (fantastic Franjo Majetić).
I placed this cache already 8 (!) months ago, but didn’t publish it for various reasons. So, the another re-run of this movie must be a sign to publish it at last. It is placed just in front of the house at Basaričekova 11, where the most of the movie was shot (and this is the residence of the Šafranek family in the movie). In the meantime, a local post office was opened in the house, also some apartments for rent, so the entrance is open, and you can enter and browse the courtyard. I guess the location and the movie itself won’t have any impact for the non-croatian speaking people, but trust me, this movie is a legend in these parts.
Maybe you can write in the log what is the legendary movie in the country where you come from?
A local bar where husband Franjo goes all the time really exists, it is situated just next door (on house number 9), and it is Pod starim Krovovima, one of the oldest cafes in Zagreb, opened in year 1830.
“Gospon Fulir”, one of the two main characters from the movie, was the inspiration for pimping of this pump.

HR: Danas (17.12.2016.) je opet na programu HTV-a legendarni, te jedan od najgledanjih hrvatskih filmova ikad, “Tko pjeva, zlo ne misli“, podnaslovljen kao "ljubavna komedija s pjevanjem", a strukturiran u obliku kolažnog dnevnika. Film je snimljen davne 1970-e godine, a odvija se u gornjogradskom stanu obitelji Šafranek, u njihovu dvorištu, Samoboru, Maksimiru te savskom kupalištu, pa dočarava kako je se živjelo u tzv. “starom Zagrebu”, 30-ih godina proslog stoljeća.
Fulira je utjelovio nezaboravni Relja Bašić, a u filmu na sve načine pokušava zavesti mladu i privlačnu gospođu Šafranek, koja osjeća da vene u braku sa svojim mnogo starijim mužem Franjom (maestralni Franjo Majetić).
Kako sam cache postavio još prije dugih 8 (!) mjeseci, mislim da je ponovna repriza ovog filma znak da ga konačno i objavim. Cache je postavljen točno ispred Basaričekove 11, kuće u kojoj je i sniman veći dio filma (a u kojoj obitelj Šafranek u filmu i stanuje). U kući je u međuvremenu otvoren i ured Pošte, pa i apartmani za iznajmljivanje, tako da se slobodno može ući i pogledati kako legendarno dvorište iz filma danas izgleda. Neprepoznatljivo, eto kako, sve je glanc novo obnovljeno, a sve biljke s balkona i zidova posječene.
Lokal gdje Franjo stalno odlazi (“K Žnidaršiću”) stvarno postoji, to je Pod starim Krovovima, i radi se o jednom od najstarijih kafića u Zagrebu, jer je otvoren još davne 1830-e godine, a nalazi se vrata do lokacije snimanja, na kućnom broju 9.
Glavni lik iz filma, Gospon Fulir, je inspirirao PMP ekipu za pimpanje ove pumpe u gradu.
Legendarne izjave iz filma:
“Pardon Mina, ja svoju ženu nedam vređati. Puno nije vredna, ali vređati je nedam!”
“Idem malo prek k Žnidaršiću, štel bi se malo porazgovarat o Abesiniji.”
