 In "A Bride for the Australian" (1963), "Where is the General" (1963) and "Giuseppe in Warsaw" (1964), Czyżewska created a character who was almost the reverse of the Cinderella-versus-Prince Charming formula, as it was her charm and wit that turned her suitors into her equals.Not a "method" actor, she did not try to disappear into characters or let her beauty wholly define her succession of screen and stage parts.Wojciech Has directed her performance in "The Saragossa Manuscript" (1964).
