Dr. Kovács István (1942)

Dr. Kovács István is a 1942 Hungarian drama film directed by Viktor Bánky and starring Antal Páger, Erzsi Simor and Júlia Tóth. When his new wife from a peasant background is not accepted by his colleagues, a University Professor resigns his post and returns home to his rural village. After receiving popular support, he is returned to his position by the Minister of Education. The film was made during the Second World War and reflects the nationalist ideology of the country's government. The film's views show the influence of Hungarian Turanism. The film was popular with audiences on its release, and Bánky released a second nationalist film Changing the Guard the same year.
