Hungarian movies?


Can anyone reccommend any more Hungarian movies? I find all types of foreign films interesting and I can recommend two
AAR(an american rhapsody)
Szerelem(Love)

Sunshine is quite an increadble movie and brilliantly performed but you're going to have to like Ralph Finnes, he plays three characters.

thank you! :-)

Without you today's emotions would be the scruf of yesterday's.

Valahol Europában is a wonderful movie! Highly Recommended!

And here is some good hungarian movies:
Kontroll(you MUST SEE this!)
Üvegtigris (the most successful comedy in Hungary)
Tizedes És A Többiek (excellent comedy in WW2)
A Tanú (it's hard to understand if you're not a hungarian and not old enough)

reply

If so, one of the easiest ways to get foreign films is to go through Netflix. They have both Valahol Europában and Kontroll. I did not find a reference to the other films.

reply

Yes, I have seen Kontroll and I must say, I simply love it! It's so weird that it's just great!?!? Visiting Budapesht now includes NOT buying a ticket for the metro! :-) Go for it Sabragirl!
Here, on serbian or croatian tv programmes we can often see hungarian movies. Most of them are very nice!

Hello vlaisav!
Our Capital is Budapest, without the 'h'!
Glad to see, there is one serbian at least, who likes something hungarian! Watch the "Tanú"(The Witness) if you can! I think you will like it!

reply

Hey chavez-12
Ah, sorry about that 'h', I actually know that you people pronounce Budapest with 'sh'so I tried my best :-))

I'll try to find that movie, the Witness, and will write you back. Have you ever seen any serbo-croat film?

reply

Unfortunately not so much!:(
But many Kusturica films are cult-movies in Hungary! Especially Crna macka, beli macor! One of the funniest comedy, i've ever seen. But when i was younger, i watched the TV series with Ljubisa Samardzic, called VRUC VETAR. That was very popular in the 80's in our country!

reply

oooohhh, VRUC VETAR, that is classic man! All those acting, those hair style and clothing from communist beginning of 1980's, that's something....:-)))
On Sarajevo Film Festival there was a hungarian movie from PEtar Mesarosz last week, hope to see that one soon.

A Tizedes meg a többiek is one of the best hungarian comedy ever made. Fantastic actors, funny situations and cool ww2 motorcycle. :) I recommend everybody to watch it.

"kontroll" ;-)

SOS Szerelem was really cute and so was Just Sex and nothing else...but one I would definately recommend is Szabadság Szerelem (Children of Glory is the USA title) that one is done very very well...Csinibaba is also very cute and satyrical butyou have to be able to get the humour of it.

I'm not really sure what you are in the mood for but try some Istvan Szabo films; Father, Love Film, 25 Fireman's Street. You may also like Miklos Jancso. Rent The Round-Up, The Red and the White, those are my favorites among his works. There is also a film called Adoption which is a classic.

reply

Try:

Mephisto
A Pal Utcai Fiuk
Hanussen

Already mentioned:
Kontroll
Indul a Bakterhaz

If you can ever get your hands on some older stuff, try Liliomfi.

I recently received as a gift a copy of Abigel, a TV-miniseries that was one of my all-time favorite Hungarian productions.

Savoir, c'est pouvoir
