Name: You
Director: István Szabó
Released: 1963
Cast: Cecília Esztergályos

Cecília Esztergályos

The subtitle of You is &lsquo;love film&rsquo;, which later became the title of the feature film debuting in 1970. The short film is in many ways the forerunner of the feature. The young and radiant Cec&iacute;lia Eszterg&aacute;lyos stars in the work evoking the French New Wave style. Every detail in this etude of fragmented structure bears great significance. The evanescence of any given minute is important here, the impressions that moments stacked one on top of another leave in the viewer

This region for an airman is just a map&#x27;, however, whosoever looks closer will discover a thousand secrets of a thousand lives on each Budapest corner or balcony. Memories of peacetime afternoons, family photos, love letters, then bombed houses, tanks driving down deserted streets and decrepit buildings awaiting demolition all flash up for a moment in this lyrical etude by Istv&aacute;n Szab&oacute;, not the first work in his series of filmmaking confessions for Budapest. The story of a city that preserves its past in its buildings and its inhabitants won the grand prix at the International Short Film Festival Oberhausen in 1977.

In this, the second of the three films often called the &lsquo;generational 
trilogy&rsquo; (The Age of Daydreaming, Father, Love Film), we trace the 
coming of age tribulations of a boy left without a father. The young 
hero evokes and embellishes memories of his father who died in 
1945. The first three films by Istv&aacute;n Szab&oacute; are based on his own 
experiences as a child and youth, yet they have resonance for an 
entire generation, showing what it was like to grow up without a 
father in the 1940s and 50s.

Istv&aacute;n Szab&oacute; reveals a lesser-known side to the public in this work, which strings together eight shorts &ndash; including A t&eacute;r&nbsp;(A Square) &ndash; of Budapest into a single movie. In the piece interpretable as a declaration of love addressed to the capital there are numerous motifs that are also to be found woven through the director&rsquo;s major features, first and foremost&nbsp;Szerelmesfilm (Love Film), Tűzolt&oacute; utca 25.&nbsp;(25 Fireman&rsquo;s Street) and Budapesti mes&eacute;k&nbsp;(Budapest Tales). Besides allowing the viewer to marvel at the cityscape from 50 years ago in a series of fast-moving images, the film is still primarily about Szab&oacute;&rsquo;s Budapest : his observations, his impressions, his imagination.

Memories and desires of the residents of a Pest apartment block condemned to be demolished swirl through this film by Istv&aacute;n Szab&oacute;. For the director in his thirties, the 1970s was the age of discovery; this work is an experiment at adapting the Modernist stream of conscious film genre for a Hungarian audience. The struggle of the individual against history is a recurring Szab&oacute; theme, which in this movie he takes closest to the limits of the narrative form.

From the very beginning of his career, Istv&aacute;n Szab&oacute;, Oscarwinning director of Mephisto, was fascinated with the birth of communities and the dynamic of human relations. His first short film, Koncert (Concert), provides clear evidence of this, and in fact the dramaturgical concept found in this was extended into a feature film, Budapest Tales. But whereas there a piano opens a channel between man and man, and creates a community, this time it is an abandoned tram carriage that assists the actors to the same end.

Based on a true story, Istvan Szabo&#x27;s Hanussen centers on an Austrian soldier (Klaus Maria Brandauer) who becomes clairvoyant after he is shot in the head during World War I. He is able to read minds and predict the future. Before long, he has foreseen Hitler and the Nazis&#x27; rise to power, and he soon finds himself in danger.

1989, Budapest: Emma and B&ouml;be are Russian teachers living in a hostel and seeking their place in a rapidly evolving world. They don&rsquo;t have, nor could they have, great expectations, yet even so it is not sure they will make it home.&nbsp;Through this film Istv&aacute;n Szab&oacute; created his own report card on the change of regime. It paints a bitter yet pinpoint accurate picture of the transformation of values and the increasingly prevalent uncertainties concerning the future.&nbsp;

Variations Upon a Theme is nothing less than an attempt to summon up HISTORY &ndash; in block capitals &ndash; using constructivist imagery. Sequences cut from archive footage shot in museums and caf&eacute;s, compiled &ldquo;objectively&rdquo;, &ldquo;in astonishment&rdquo;, &ldquo;as a scream&rdquo;, are a warning that, just like the films of the great Central Europe trilogy, by the time a person realizes where they live, historical processes are already irreversible.

Many consider that Istv&aacute;n Szab&oacute;&rsquo;s oeuvre is in fact virtually a single, connected oeuvre-film. His first exam film etude, made in BBS and attracting considerable attention, was Concert set &ldquo;on the lower embankment of the wharf&rdquo;. It is about people gathering around an abandoned piano, who try to play and then protect the instrument. They grow in number because they become entranced by the music of Tiham&eacute;r Vujicsics. The film shows, symbolically, the power of art to create a community, as a single person becomes many. These motifs regularly appear in the closing sequences and metaphors of his films.
