VHS Movie Reviews of The Boys Of Paul Street
Movie Review: An Absolute Masterpiece
Summary: 5 Stars
Remember when you were a kid and you and your friends engaged in a mock war? Remember how, just like real war, it got out of hand all too quickly? Well, that's what happens to the pre-adolescent and early-adolescent boys in this modern Hungarian classic, one of the best movies you (probably) never heard of. I don't want to say much more about the plot, but the ending will rip your heart out. I can hardly imagine a more profoundly antiwar statement. Masterfully written, directed and acted by all involved. This film was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Foreign Film, and quite possibly deserved to win. I am glad this great movie is now available on VHS, but would note that my copy seems to have been edited slightly differently from the version I remember from late-night TV. However, as one who almost always hates dubbing, I'm very glad this is a subtitled version. The reviewer below who remembers an English-language (dubbed?) version may be recalling a completely different movie, perhaps "No Greater Glory," an earlier film based on the same story. This enactment of the tale is directed by the great Zoltan Fabri, and it shows.
