His first non-documentary work was with Czech director "Milos Forman", notably "Loves of a Blonde" (1965), "Intimate Lighting" (1965), and "The Fireman's Ball" (1966). When Forman set up shop in the U.S. after the 1968 Russian invasion of Czechoslovakia, Ondricek followed suit, working with Forman on such American films as "Hair" (1979), "Ragtime" (1981), "Amadeus" (1984), and "Valmont" (1989). Miroslav Ondricek has also worked harmoniously with such directors as "Lindsay Anderson" ("O Lucky Man" [1971]), "George Roy Hill" ("The World According to Garp" [1982]), and "Penny Marshall" ("Awakenings" [1990]). ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
