Info

Az Uj Foldesur (The New Squire) was based on a novel by popular Hungarian author Maurice Jokal, whose many works had previously been largely ignored. After the wars of 1848, a retired Austrian army officer "returns to the soil" as a gentleman farmer in Hungary in the 1850s. The old campaigner is the father of two daughters: One of the girls comes to a sad end thanks to the malfeasances of a handsome spy, but the other has a happier fate when she falls in love with a Hungarian POW. The underlying theme is brotherhood, as the formerly warring Austrians and Hungarians at last find a common ground. Az Uj Foldesur was nearly twice as expensive as the average Hungarian film -- but at $40,000, its budget was a drop in the bucket compared to a typical Hollywood production.

The New Landlord Audience Reviews

Ehirerapp Waste of time
Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.
