Son of the White Mare / Fehérlófia (1981) dir. Marcell Jankovics

[vintagegeekculture]

Lost for almost 40 years, the phantasmagorical, dreamlike, surreal, abstracted, and strange animated movie, “Son of the White Mare” (1981) was only seen in Communist Hungary until it was rediscovered in 2020. It was based on myths of the steppe people about a heroic son of a white horse possessed of great strength who slays dragons.

Fanart Friday - Three Princesses

The three princess dragon-wives from the incredible (and necessary to watch for fans of animation) Son of the White Mare from 1981.

They were so gorgeous, though obviously I had to censor the first wife on the side there by turning her away from the others.

I'm telling you guys- FIND THIS MOVIE HOWEVER POSSIBLE. It's a trip and it's a beautiful take on Hungarian folklore. Absolutely loved it.

Here's another great one. This one has subtitles...it was really hard to find so I kept it private for a while, but hopefully it stays up for everyone to enjoy

Hello ! I absolutely love your thoughts about shows and characters! this is such a random question. Do you think Rio would be super into movies? Not like a film bro necessarily but I do think he would be really critical, particular of the type of movies he enjoys 😭. Maybe a little judgey n amused by Beth’s fav movies. Though maybe they would enjoy the same films .What are your head cannons?

Hi! Oh, anon, I have long had the personal headcanon that Rio's an enormous snob, haha.

I tend to see him as more of a book and music guy than a film or TV guy tbh, in no small part because he had a record player but no TV in his apartment in 2.11, but I think it checks out with what we know of his character too. I do like the idea though that when he does watch movies, he does so in two capacities - firstly as a sort of bougie trait (he only watches films at the cinema, and probably arthouse ones at that), and secondly that he might enjoy watching b-gangster movies to talk shit about all the things they're doing wrong, haha.

I can see him and Beth doing both together when they're in an established relationship? And I think they'd both posture a little with going to the cinema but actually have more fun with laughing together at b-gangster movies. I also kind of love the idea of Beth secret-squirreling away tidbits of information when Rio was talking shit too, because he'd reveal more about his experiences and the crime world than he meant to for the sake of tearing a movie to shreds, haha.

I also love the idea of his snobbery kind of extending to the kids sometimes. Like him trying to stop the kids from watching Frozen for the 1200th time and trying to get them into like, communist Hungarian folklore animation like Son of the White Mare instead which most of the kids would hate, except like, Jane, who liked all the new ways it taught her how to be a little evil (also, y'know, maybe she'd like the bonding time and the fact that pretending to like the weird movies Rio played them got her extra dessert).

As for Beth's taste - - I think she'd decide early that she'd keep watching the things she actually wanted to watch with Ruby and Annie, haha.
