But when I was just a young lad!
I think it’s rather fun, really.
I have to tell you, I haven’t seen it yet.
Of course, I was merely one of the strange cogs in the production.
It was a fantastically, extraordinary mad production.

I’ve been asked about it several times.
Hungary produces extraordinary directors and films.
And that’s heart-breaking.
But as films go, I enjoyed it!
