Manda Was Not Supposed to Star in "Lepa sela lepo gore": This Legendary Actor Refused the Role: "The War Was Ongoing"
The film "Lepa sela lepo gore" left a deep and lasting mark on domestic cinematography, carrying a strong and difficult message about war and its consequences. One of the most memorable roles was played by Milorad Mandić Manda, who, as Viljuška, remains etched in the audience's memory. It is interesting that Manda was not originally planned for this role. It was intended for Srđan Todorović, who once stated that he refused it because of the then-ongoing war in Bosnia, as such an engagement was not acceptable to him at that time.
