Gloomy Sunday
7:30 p.m., Vine Cinema
Germany, 1999, 114 minutes, Hungarian and German with subtitles

Set against the backdrop of Budapest, this haunting, romantic mystery is an ironic parable about innocence and love, guilt and hate. Ilona Varnai is loved by three men-the dashing restaurant owner Laszlo Szabo; the somber young pianist, Andras Aradi, who composed the ballad Gloomy Sunday just for her, and the German camera salesman Hans Wieck. When Wieck returns to Budapest as an SS officer during WWII, his obsession for Ilona threatens to destroy them all.
