Érik a búzakalász

Venerable Hungarian stage and film star Sari Fedak heads the cast of Erik a Bazakalasz (Ripening Wheat). Fedak plays Mrs. Beleznay, a strong-minded widow who refuses to remarry until her grown children can find mates of their own. Mrs. B’s erstwhile suitor Andras Ban (Attila Petheo) has resigned himself to a long wait, but that doesn’t prevent him from taking a proprietary interest in his prospective stepchildren. When the son falls in love with an English girl and the daughter does likewise with an Italian boy, Andras rails against bringing “foreigners” into his future family. But Mrs. Beleznay has no objections, and as the film’s ending proves, her instincts are right on target.
