Between 1929 and 1942, Hungary's motion picture industry
experienced meteoric growth. It leapt into Europe's top echelon,
trailing only Nazi Germany and Italy in feature output. Yet by
1944, Hungary's cinema was in shambles, internal and external
forces having destroyed its unification experiments and productive
capacity. This original cultural and political history examines the
birth, unexpected ascendance, and wartime collapse of Hungary's
early sound cinema by placing it within a complex international
nexus. Detailing the interplay of Hungarian cultural and political
elites, Jewish film professionals and financiers, Nazi officials,
and global film moguls, David Frey demonstrates how the
transnational process of forging an industry designed to define a
national culture proved particularly contentious and surprisingly
contradictory in the heyday of racial nationalism and antisemitism.
