Humorous and Romantic Period Piece
I came into this film knowing nothing about the premise. I was swept quickly into the story and the main character due to the way that women were supposed to be either confined to a convent or society's idea of servitude by an arranged marriage through the eldest male in the family.
Our heroine throws off both of these ideas by quickly being expelled by her convent that her father placed her in at the age of 6, and returns to her ancestral home. Her father places an ad in the local paper in order to find her a husband and the rest of the film sorts out the rest.
Our heroine definitely has a mind of her own and lays out her conditions for this "marriage" and many humorous moments transpire as the young couple get to know each other.
Definitely listen to this movie in the original language of Magyar with the English subtitles to fully appreciate the subtleties and nuances of this film.
