About The Beast of Budapest
Archival footage combined with new footage re-creates the 1956 Hungarian Revolution. It is also a love story between a devout communist woman and the liberal son of a prominent professor. Because of their political differences, the two can never be together.
Directed by Harmon Jones, The Beast of Budapest leans on a strong ensemble — Gerald Milton, Michael Mills, Violet Rensing — 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 drama titles of 1958.
