About Érdekházasság
Adaptation of 1911 novel The Reason Why by Elinor Glyn – Tancred, the English Lord, after having lost all his money wants to immigrate to Canada. He was about to leave when his friend presented him with a rich widow, Zora. The young man is delighted with this opportunity, gets married and stays in England. The woman suspects that her husband married her only because of her money, so at the beginning she behaves coldly with him. The husband, however, gradually becomes increasingly in love with his wife and he would heat up their chilly relationship. One day - when Zora tells her life story to her husband– two hearts finally find each other, and marriage of convenience becomes a love marriage.
Directed by Antal Forgács, Érdekházasság leans on a strong ensemble — Jenő Törzs, Ilona Bánhidy, Tibor Lubinszky — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 1919.
