Signorina 10.000

This is a kind of 'comedy of errors' with some brilliant acting performance. This kind of movies were made one after another in the 1930's Hungary, so you can make yourself a good 100 minutes seeing it, but surely this won't change your view of life. A light play around a 'dram-car' and of course love, where the rich car-salon owner fells love with a poor, but attractive young girl. To reach her hands, he makes as if she had won the car as a prize, and to get close to her, he offers his service as a chauffeur with sharing the income to prove that he's poor too. At the end of course everything turns out and we get the casual happy end. Sadly, the best piece of action, the wonderful way of Gyula Kabos's speeches and dialogues is only meaningful for Hungarian viewers.

Jenö Törzs is a bank president. He is about to go on a vacation to get away from all his girlfriends, with whom he has just called everything off. Zita Perczel is a secretary who has just been hired by his bank. As a joke, she and her friend go into shops and pretend they are interested in buying expensive goods, like jewelry. She goes into a luxury car dealership, where she pretends she wishes to buy the luxury car that Törzs has just purchased. He is smitten, but worries that as a rich man, she won't really care for him, so he gives her the car anonymously and then presents himself as a driver, going partners with her using the car to carry people around.

The comedy was popular enough to be remade in English as CAR OF DREAMS, featuring a very young John Mills. It's easy to see why; it's very funny. With the two leads to carry the romance, there are two or three comics, including Gyula Kabos as Miss Perczel's gossiping boss, and Gyula Gózon as her father who wants to play some incomprehensible card game with everyone. There's some romantic scenery that includes a waterfall in Lilafüred in Hungary, All in all, very amusing.
