The Hungarian Masters Collection (Second Run) [3 DVD9s] [PAL]

Makk's haunting, atmospheric and beautifully performed film, brilliantly shot by Janos Toth, captures exactly the fear and uncertainty of the time. It is, above all, a treatise on how such times affect fidelity, faith, illusion, love. It deals specifically with Hungary but has an absolutely universal appeal… completely unsentimental, but catches precisely what its characters face and how they feel…an outstanding film. - Derek Malcolm.

One of the loveliest manifestations of romantic imagination I have seen on the screen. - New York Times.

Disc Features:
- Introduction to the film by its director Károly Makk.
- Digitally re-mastered with restored image and sound, approved by the Director.
- Anamorphic 16:9 enhanced for widescreen televisions.
- New and improved English subtitle translation.

In the final days of World War II, a young Hungarian is making his way home, through countryside full of the debris of war, when he is captured and imprisoned by Russians. Left in the custody of a young Russian soldier, the two youths form a friendship in spite of not speaking each other's language. The Hungarian's attempts to continue his journey homeward provide the framework for this powerful film, considered Miklós Jancsó's first masterpiece.

Jancsó's consistent vision - the psychological presence of landscape, the randomness of violence, the arbitrary nature of power - is first evident in this poetic, evocative and deeply personal work from one of cinema's most acclaimed filmmakers.

From one of the world’s foremost women directors, this deeply personal work is a reflection on Mészáros’ own experiences channelled via Juli, a young woman returning home to Budapest from the Soviet Union where her parents were exiled and had died. Scarred by the wounds of the past, she is repulsed to see the very same spectre of Stalinist oppression now rife in her homeland.

Mészáros’ film resonates with the spirit and the struggles of her past - a passionate yet critical study of personal and political awakening told in ruthlessly unsentimental fashion.

“A brilliantly told tale about idealism and corruption” - Channel 4 Film Guide

“One is struck by its sincerity, intelligence and strong performances” - Geoff Andrew, Time Out

“An unusually graphic picture of Hungarian political, cultural and social life in the late 40's” - Vincent Canby, New York Times
