Actress plays dual role: herself and imaginary son (Janika) in order to lure back estranged husband.
zzxzz19 April 2000
Famous actress lures back her estranged husband by creating and playing a non-existent son (Janika). This role was written for the star of the film (Ida Turay) by her husband-writer (István Békeffy) originally for the stage. Although some of the extreme close-ups weren't too kind especially when she was dressed up as the young boy (Janika), the charm of the movie captured the essence of success of the stage play very entertainingly. Many first class Hungarian entertainers appear in the film and giving their very best performace, as usual.
