The Budapest Filmweek PrizesThe feature competition winner for Best Picture was a film called “Delta” by a young director, Kornél Mundruczó, which was also awarded the traditional Gene Moskowitz prize by the foreign press delegation. However, due to my unfortunately vast degree of geographical separation from the festival grounds I didn’t get to see it, and therefore am not in a position to comment critically one way or another. This year’s Best Director Prize went to Elemer Ragalyi, for the film “Nincs Kegyelem” (No Mercy) which I was also unable to see, so, again No Comment -- other than to observe that Mr. Ragalyi is, like Lajos Koltai, a highly respected veteran cameraman turned director, dresses very sharply for a man of his age, 68, and looks much younger. The film voted most popular (“Közönség”, or Audience prize) was “Nyomozó”, which translates roughly to “Detective” or ‘Gumshoe’. The director was Gigor Attila. I hope it was as good as the word of mouth, but again, I didn’t see it. There were many other prizes, all for films I didn’t get to see, so there isn’t much point in listing titles no one will ever hear about again. 07.02.2008 | Editor's blog Cat. : Alex Deleon Budapest CDATA Cinema of Hungary Elemer Ragalyi Elephant Man Evening Fateless Fatelessness Film Gene Moskowitz Glen Close Gyula Pados Gyula Pados Human Interest Human Interest Hungarian people István Szabó Kornél Mundruczó Kornél Mundruczó Lajos Lajos Koltai Lajos Koltai London Nincs Kegyelem Oscar Sam Goldwyn United Kingdom Vanessa Redgrave War War |
