György Hámos

Alfa Romeo and Julia

A young man has his hepatic duct replaced with a plastic tube after an accident but starts to get worried how this will affect his manliness.

Auntie Who Was Respectable

The once celebrated actress, Aunt Mici, refuses to go and spend her old days in the old actors' home. She lets her apartment, in exchange for being taken care of, to a young couple. Laci and Kati care for the old woman with loving tenderness. Suddenly, Mici's one time lover, Alfréd turns up.

Two Confessions

This easy-to-take Hungarian drama is also known as Two Wishes. The prinicipal characters are a pair of juvenile delinquents, who may still be redeemable. The sullen duo is befriended by a kindly police inspector, who takes it upon himself to straighten out the boys. What follows cannot be termed surprsingly or innovative, though it is immensely satisfying. Of interest is the fact that a Communist-bloc film would admit to a delinquency problem in the so-called Worker's Paradise. Ket Vallomas was the Hungarian entry in the 1957 Cannes Film Festival.

We Took Over the Cause of Peace

One of the earliest works of the outstanding Hungarian director Miklós Jancso was filmed by him in collaboration with Dezho Koza and Gyula Meszáros as a documentary short film dedicated to the propaganda of building socialism in Hungary.
