Synopsis by Hal Erickson
The title of this multistoried Hungarian effort translates as Budapest Candy Store. The titular confectionery is a way station for any number of intertwining plots, most romantic in nature. The most interesting story concerns a May-December romance involving a middle-aged painter played by Artur Somlay. Comedian Gyula Gozon goes through his usual scene-stealing, but he's out-acted this time by another Gyula, last name Kabos The film's heroine is played by Zita Perczel, whom critics pooh-poohed because of her lack of film experience, but who certainly photographed well.
