[Isten hozta örnagy úr] HU 1969, R: Zoltán Fábri mit Zoltán Latinovits, Imre Sinkovits, Márta Fónay, 95 Min, OmeU, Mit Einführung durch Hungarian National Film Fund

We are in a tiny village somewhere in the deep countryside during the Second World War. The patience and civility of a fire brigade leader and his family are tested when their son’s commander on leave pays them a visit.

The mad army major terrorizes a village fireman and his family, forcing them to cut and fold endless quantities of cardboard packing boxes every night until dawn. Comedy ensues when the Tots go overboard trying to make things pleasant for the major in the hopes of an easier life for their son, the soldier.

Based on a play by István Örkény, the film, starring the legendary actor Zoltán Latinovits, speaks about the nature of power and domination – in a highly entertaining way.

“Acting is good down the line, and as usual in Hungarian pix, there are excellent supporting roles. Technically, the film is fully competent.” (Variety, 1970)
