ok, it's only amazing that it got past the censor. Here is LYSYJ VIJUBLEN V TANCOVSCICU, I guess roughly translated as "Bald is in Love with the Dancer" starring and directed by Reynolds (R. Rejnol's). David Robinson mentions him quickly in "The Great Funnies". Apparently, 'Lysyj' was a comedy series of sorts, as the 1988 FIAF Treasures lists three of them at Gosfilmofond. Welcome to a new comedian you never knew you never saw.
