Review: On Body and Soul | 89www.jrfm.eu 2017, 3/2, 85–89 Is this the secret of a successful launch in cinemas? it was my intention to give audiences the chance to have this experience and to con- nect with the idea that body and soul are corresponding parts of human life. there is also a very fine balance between “laughing” and “laughing at”. These two aspects are so close to each other. How did you accomplish this kind of balance? in the editing we worked on this balance. through this love story i wanted to give the spectator a heart-warming sensation by experiencing openness. if you keep the humour in the drama at too low a key it can hardly be understood and the film beco- mes pretentious. On Body and Soul seems to balance these elements perfectly. We found a balance of body and soul in the film and give this experience to the audience. fiLMoGraPhy My Twentieth Century (Az én xx. századom, ildikó enyedi, hU 1989) On Body and Soul (Teströl és lélekröl, ildikó enyedi, hU 2017)
