A slow slow burner, so very very slow, to the pint of watching paint dry. The setting is a dusty backwater with little or no traffic passing through except a potentially interacting cargo that rocks up a little way in. The dialogue is a dirge and in its defence maybe doesn't translate too well... from what I could grab of the dialogue, Hungarian women's voices are excessively deep, no worries but kind of adds to the atmosphere.
There's a tail-less cat that appears from time to time among the plastic white chairs in the forecourt and even on a chair, that appears to possess an acre more substance than the rest of this film.
I stopped it half way though to see if I'd missed anything but I hadn't, it really was that unmemorable.
I belive the point might be that the people involved in the gathering at the gas station in the middle of what ought to be that vast dull outback of the Hortobagy (Hungarys wheat plains) don't really have all that much to say or do, being such empty characters, that they go mental on each other which is what I would have done if I'd been in their company.
About 2/3 of the way through, it sparks into life in brutal fashion. There's nothing new about any of it, apart from a saucy scene in a woodshed. The scenery and kino side are suitably atmospheric, in a true romance kind of way.
Quote of the movie has to be, and it exactly reflects my choice of movie... "I'm too old for this ****'+".
