Hungarian drama
Hungary, 1930: Piper Steve – an assassin born as a woman – is on death row awaiting execution when he meets Irma, the prison chaplain’s daughter. A forbidden love blossoms between the two – and yet time is running out.
A tip of my hat to Orsolya. I’ve seen many “woman passing as a man” performances, but never one this good. She has every detail right. You’d never guess she was a woman until the undressing.
Also naked in a shower scene with Orsolya: Boglárka Nagy-Bakonyi
Half the nudity in Eastern European movies is a miserable period piece shot in some abattoir, no real tradition of high school sex romps
@Hanzo: EE countries are usually not rich and huge, so their film industries are mostly state supported, because their small markets (consider different languages) cannot support a big film industry.
And the state is unlikely to support high school sex movies.
In the US it’s different, because there is a huge single market in house and also there are the foreign markets too, so it’s much easier to make different kinds of movies. E.g. if a sex comedy is not hugely successful, it can still be profitable because of market size.
