Reviews:
"I loved this movie, although I found it sad. The little girl who played Suzanne as a child was phenomenal! Her eyes and facial expressions spoke volumes. When she tearfully told her father "I want to go home" it broke my heart. I can certainly understand that the mother wanted her child back, but considering the trauma it caused the child, I wish there had been some easier way to make the transition from well loved little Hungarian country girl to homesick, confused, misunderstood, (albeit brave) American child in L.A. suburbia. It did seem as though the parents and grandmother displayed selfish reasons for uprooting the child, never considering what it would be like from the child's point of view. I couldn't help but think that Zsuzi would have grown up to be a delightful teenager had she been left with her foster parents. She simply did not have the wherewithal to deal with being uprooted and transplanted with no warning, no preparation. No six year old, not even any 16 year old or 40 year old, for that matter, could deal with emotional trauma of this magnitude. I was left wanting to know MUCH MORE about this family ... did they return to visit Hungary? Did they openly keep in touch with the foster parents? How did this emotional upheaval affect Suzanne as an adult? I want a sequel." Written by nolava67 on IMDb.com
"Because I did not experience the very real, very profound love and affection as a child that Suzanne received from both sets of parents, I was especially moved by this film. The devotion shown, even in the midst of the psychological turmoil within the heart of Suzanne, carried through every scene, whether violence was displayed or not.
As a young girl restricted to an immensely caring family life, how would Suzanne have taken in all that Hungary represented In her youth? It was, in truth, a complete mystery to her due the lack of firsthand experience. All she knew was love, unbalanced by the territorial facts.
Fortunately, Hungary is no longer like it was in the 50s. Instead, it is one of the most economically strong and vibrant countries in Europe where marriages abound, as does the birth of children. Why? Perhaps because they have chosen to keep out whatever interference might come along by way of migrants, and have built a 150 mile wall to monitor the flow of potentially violent refugees.
I applaud all who helped make this revealing film, which, as I view it, is especially applicable for today's youthful and inexperienced American socialists. A far too impressionable bunch they are, with fantastic, naïve and unrealistic visions, for nothing good was shown to come out of a society not open to the true yearnings of the souls of men and women."
