A Wonderful Movie That Is Not “Gloomy”
“Gloomy Sunday” was a movie I happen to see by chance. Apparently my city is the only city in North America that is showing this movie. It is playing in one theatre in a small suburb. My father and I went to see this movie he wanted to see it because we are Hungarian and wanted to hear what kind of music would be played. To my surprise I found that I had actually enjoyed the movie. My expectations were low, only because I didn’t have a clue as to what to expect but, I’m very happy I saw this film. It’s one of the best films I’ve seen so far this year. The movie is about a few things. One of it’s main story-lines concerns a love triangle concerning Laszlo (Joachim Krol), Ilona (Erika Marazan) and Andras (Stefano Dionisi). Laszlo owns a restaurant and Ilona is his girlfriend. Laszlo is hoping to have some music in his restaurant and hires a piano player, Andras. Andras likes Ilona. And Ilona it seems likes Andras. So he movie it seems will be a love story set during the beginning of WW2. But, there’s also another story building. Andras has written a song called “Gloomy Sunday”. He has written for Ilona. But soon the song becomes a hit. It’s a beautiful song that seems to have a very strange effect on whoever listens to it. Soon afterwards people are committing suicide. And here we have a case of fact stranger than fiction. For it is this part of the story that is actually true. “Gloomy Sunday” is based on this story with the love theme used as a backdrop. I don’t know if or when this movie will be wider release in North America. But I hope people will go see this movie. In fact though I doubt that people from this country have even heard of this movie. Here is a movie that NEEDS to be better known. It is a small gem. *** out of **** or a 7\10.
Masterpiece
Gloomy Sunday-IMDb A great movie experience. I’m 82 and have been watching movies since I was five years old. This is an unforgettable film. Every facet is superb. The acting is flawless, the cinematography is breathtaking, and the gripping story has every human emotion imaginable. It’s hypnotic from start to finish, but keep in mind, you have to be attentive. There are some subtle touches that can go unnoticed if you’re not carefully observing and listening, and missing them can possibly deprive you of fully understanding and enjoying the fantastic ending. The skilled director doesn’t use a heavy hand, and that’s admirable. Every single actor gives a perfect performance. Having studied acting for five years, I must mention that they don’t act, they behave. Erika Marozsán’s portrayal is colossal! I’ve fallen in love with her. Even if I were five years old now, there’s a scene with Joachim Król I’d remember the rest of my life. I’ve viewed that particular scene about eight times. Gut-wrenching, yet inspirational. Never in my life have a watched any movie four times, and I just saw this one again for the fourth time in one week! If not for IMDb and Netflix, I would never have heard of it. And it received no nominations for the Academy Awards. Ridiculous! This is truly a masterpiece! I’ve never written a review for IMDb, but for this film I had to do it. I cannot praise this movie enough!
