Miloš Forman,emmanuelle a game of eroticism the Czech American filmmaker who may have been best-known for his Oscar-winning work on Amadeusand One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, is dead at 86.
Forman died on Friday after a brief, unspecified illness, his wife, Martina Zborilova-Forman, told the Czech News Agency (h/t Variety). She said in a brief statement that "his departure was calm, and he was surrounded the whole time by his family and his closest friends."
One of many directors making up film's "Czech New Wave" of the 1960s, Forman's first appearance on the Hollywood radar dates back to the middle years of that decade. His early works Loves of a Blondeand The Firemen's Ball both scored "Best Foreign Film" nominations at the Academy Awards.
Forman's earliest work in the United States was Taking Off, which turned out to be a critical and commercial failure despite winning the Grand Prix at the 1971 Cannes Film Festival. It did, however, lead him to connect with producers Michael Douglas and Saul Zaentz for what turned out to be his Hollywood breakout.

In many ways, Cuckooset the tone for Forman's Hollywood work to follow, a filmography dominated largely by thoughtful adaptations and biographies. His best known works tell someone else's story, from adaptations of Hair(a Broadway music) and Amadeus(a stage play) to biopics about Hustler founder Larry Flynt (The People vs. Larry Flynt) and comedian Andy Kaufman (Man on the Moon).
Forman's passing prompted a swift response from major figures in Hollywood and beyond.
