Biography

Jan Antonín Duchoslav (* May 1, 1965 Prague) is a Czech actor and moderator. He studied high school, but did not finish it. According to him, it was mainly due to the popularity that occurred after the film Snowdrops and Gnats. During his military service, he was sentenced to ten months unconditionally for bullying, but thanks to President Husák's amnesty, he was released from prison after only 19 days. Since the 1980s, he has made a living as a props, pusher, businessman with women's shoulder pads, producer, ski instructor and illuminator. He is divorced. He and his ex-wife Klára Stibůrková, who is a lawyer by profession, have two children - sons Antonín (2008) and Jan (2012). He has been performing at the Radek Brzobohatý Theater in Prague for a long time. He is best known as Viky Cabadaj from the film Sněženky a machři, but we can also remember him as a Turk from Rafťáky, a policeman from 2Bobulí, Viktor Hofman Jr. from the Surgery in the Rose Garden, Miky from the series Third Floor or the clumsy head of a gas station in the sitcom of the same name. He also played "šmejda" in the series Doctors from the Beginnings. It is interesting that his serial partner was Dita Hořínková, with whom he also played in the sitcom Benzínka. In addition to acting, he moderates, for example, he moderated a talk show with Iveta Bartošová on TV Pětka, where he also had the show Bulvárek. After its completion, it had a competition on TV Relax called Closely Watched Train. He was also the Winter Inspector of Televizní noviny, where he visited ski resorts and informed about their quality.

Credits

Sladké starosti (1984) Character: Vojto
A comedy about Simon, an honest, clever confectioner. In practical life, the humble bachelor becomes an easy prey to his boss, his mother, and hordes of women eager to get married. The story incorporates well-tested methods of nearly all major periods in the history of film comedy: from a lumierish etude with the garden hose to a melancholic tramp to the menace of the streets Jacques Tati. Director Juraj Herz made a major contribution to the modest tradition of Slovak film comedy.

A drama based on the criminal youth life in Prague during eighties.

2Bobule (2009) Character: drsný policajt

Sněženky a machři (1983) Character: Viki Cabadaj
A quarter century after the release of the original film, this sequel brings us a drama about platonic love, life retrospective and memories. Former schoolmates meet again in the mountains and it turns out they have not changed much. Even though so many years have passed, we can still see the souls of boys and girls we know from the teenage comedy Snowdrops and Aces; kids who participated in that legendary skiing course. Its nostalgic humour gives the film a bitter-sweet touch. Thawing Out follows the lives of the main heroes during a period of great changes. How did they manage to escape the traps and what scars have they suffered? Where did they want to go, how far have they got and what is still in front of them?

As a mayor dreams of spreading holiday cheer with a new ski jump, the town's citizens experience wacky antics while searching for love in wild places.

Non plus ultras (2004) Character: výčepní Martin
NON PLUS ULTRAS is a comedy with a social subtext. It takes a satirical look at a short stretch in the life of five "fans" of one Prague football club who belong to the hardcore supporters - ultras or hooligans. The gang members' lives revolve around football. They revere their "world-famous" English counterparts and uncritically take them as their role models. The undeclared leader of the gang is Bejcak (played by David Novotny), a charismatic young man of around 30 years old with natural authority. He is not stupid; he likes to use foreign words, but always in a slightly unsuitable context. The oldest member of the gang is the lonely forty-year-old Tycka (Vladimir Dlouhy), whom Bejcak took under the gang's wing. Tycka is much older than the others. The stuttering youth Pejsek (Karel Zima) is a fanatic lover of all things "English". He is seconded by the none-too-bright Potapec (Michal Novotny) and the agile, wiry Vocko (Matej Hadek), who is constantly devising new loutish exploits.

Czech Made Man (2011) Character: pomocná stráž VB
The movie is based on the narrative of a Czech multimillionaire who achieved success not by stripping companies, making crooked deals and crony-ism, but by blazing his own trail like Schweikesque self-made man. He realizes early on that he has nobody but himself to rely on. During the totalitarian regime of the 80s, he ambles along his oddball path and then experiences the Velvet Revolution atypically, too - in an asylum amidst nut-cases. After the Revolution, he really gets rolling. To Germany and back. To prison and back. To China and back. The intriguing and endless opportunities afforded by the Internet eventually blossom into virtual prosperity. The hero has everything and is even planning a highly unorthodox family. A happy ending is nigh, until everything goes up in smoke, of course...
