![]() Year: 1991 Country: France Actors and Actresses: Laura Martel, Virginie Ledoyen Tags: bathing girl Review: Mima (Virginie Ledoyen), like her parents, was born in France. However, her family originated in Italy and is determined to remain true to its roots. This causes some mixed feelings in the girl, who feels at least as French as Italian. She has no questions however, about how much she loves her genial grandfather (Nina Manfredi). One of the highlights of her life is when he takes her to the movies to see Jean-Paul Belmondo pictures, and she remembers many of the stories he has told her. Mima is the only one who sees two men take her father away, but she keeps mum about it. All she or anyone knows is that he never returns after that. Her uncle feels duty bound to avenge his presumed death as a result of an old Mafia entanglement, and Mima is afraid she will lose him as well. Thus, it is with some relief that she encounters a friendly, sympathetic French policeman. - Clarke Fountain, All Movie Guide Movie added at: 21.05.2022 |

![]() Year: 1921 Country: USA Actors and Actresses: Jackie Coogan Tags: bathing boy Review: Jackie Blair's father was killed in France. His mother died traveling in steerage. This leaves little Jackie Blair alone when he appears at Ellis Island, and the immigration officials want to send him right back. Captain Bill appears on the scene asking for a job - but he's too old and no one wants him. He sees lonely little Jackie, pities him and asks the eight Pinkosuwitz children to include him in their games. Thus, the Captain unwittingly engineers Jackie's escape. The orphan is mixed in with the Pinkosuwitzes when they leave the immigration building. When they find they've gained a ninth child, they send him on his way. This leaves Jackie to follow Captain Bill back to his very modest home - for which the old salt is unable to pay the rent. Jackie tries to make himself useful. He even sings and dances with an organ grinder to make money for the Captain's medicine. Little does either guess that Jackie's wealthy grandmother has everyone in immigration looking for the boy. When Jackie turns up at the matron's party for unfortunate children, he may be reunited with her. Or he may go to jail when he's suspected of stealing her hand-bag. - IMDb Movie added at: 04.05.2022 |

![]() Year: 2012 Country: Hungary, Germany, France Actors and Actresses: Lajos Sárkány Review: News quickly spreads of the murder of a Romany family in a Hungarian village. The perpetrators have escaped and nobody claims to know who might have committed the crime. For another Romany family living close by, the murder only serves to confirm their latent, carefully repressed fears. Far away in Canada the head of the family decides that his wife, children and their grandfather must join him as soon as possible. Living in fear of the racist terror that surrounds them and feeling abandoned by the silent majority, the family tries to get through the day after the attack. By nightfall when darkness descends on the village the family pushes the beds closer together than usual. Yet their hope of escaping the madness proves illusory. Based on an actual series of killings in Hungary that claimed the lives of eight people in less than a year, Bence Fliegauf portrays the pogrom-like atmosphere which breeds such violence. The camera stays hot on the heels of the protagonists, making the breathless escalation of events physically palpable. - IMDb Movie added at: 30.04.2022 |

![]() Year: 1986 Country: Hungary Actors and Actresses: Zoltán Nagy Review: This jarring wartime drama set in Budapest is adapted from a novel of the same name by Imre Keszi which was, in turn, based on a true story. At center stage is a Jewish family permitted to continue living in their apartment during the war so long as they identify themselves as Jews when they are out on the street (by wearing the yellow star). One day their son is picked up and sent to a deportation camp for children. The camp, the Elysium, appears deceptively civilized because of the cultural interests of its personnel -- except that the children are being used for medical experiments. The distraught parents soon discover that their "friends" are afraid to help them, that they are not really considered to be Hungarians, and that all their learning cannot move the mountains that block access to their son. - Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide Movie added at: 27.04.2022 |
