Each shot is its own little miracle.
One of the most original and stylish films to come along this year.
More than a slight, pleasant oddity, Hukkle shows Pálfi's keen attunement to the sensual possibilities, both in nature and in cinema.
Unclassifiable and wildly original, it is almost wordless but teeming with sound.
A film driven by an elusive plot buried like a cryptogram under the action. It's a delightfully screwy ethnographic murder mystery, beautifully photographed in translucent naturalistic color.
Deranging a venerable Hungarian tradition of "village sociology," Pálfi employs a bizarrely associative montage to fashion a portrait of a traditional peasant community -- just a midsummer Sunday on Mars.
The film is ultimately too self-regarding, too smug to be transcendent itself.
