Dwaj ludzie z szafa (Two Men and a Wardrobe) (1958)

concerning the film, I totally agree with BlueVoid... and unless I'm mistaken, I see a very young Polanski himself as the second assailant to hit striped shirt guy, standing up against the wall. At 2.10minutes into the second part of the movie, he even gives a little hint about what he's going to do to Jack Nicholson in Chinatown....

This early Roman Polanski silent, black and white, short is a glimpse at his future brilliance. The short starts with two men walking out of the ocean with a wardrobe with which they are quite happy with. They proceed to parade around town with it, meeting increasingly more hostile people who don't share their same love for the wardrobe. This is apparent that this is a metaphor for intolerance. Intolerance to what, isn't explicitly clear. The reading I got out of it, was that the two men were homosexuals. They were 'out of the closet', and were being weighed down by this heavy burden in an un-accepting society. This is just my own interpretation, but the message of intolerance is strong, and the film manages to say a lot with this simple metaphor.
