Unpacking Bori Péterfy’s Interview: A Sharp Take
Well, here we go, folks! Bori Péterfy has taken to the airwaves, and surprise, surprise—she’s not just spilling tea; she’s brewing an entire pot! In a recent interview with Telex, we get a delightful dose of her thoughts on her divorce, the entertainment industry, and let’s not forget the rather spicy double standards still lingering like a bad smell in the corner.
Highlights & Observations
So, what exactly did she say? Well, let’s dissect her comments with the precision of a surgeon… or perhaps more like a clumsy butcher. Here’s a rundown of the key takeaways:
- **Selfish Careers?** She claims if a woman prioritizes her career, she’s branded selfish. Ah, yes, because there’s nothing quite like women doing well at their jobs to really grind men’s gears, is there?
- **Workshop Woes:** Bori reminisces about the Krétakör workshops under Árpád Schilling’s reign (1996-2008), lamenting that such creative environments are as rare as a unicorn these days. Apparently, all that workshop magic has been replaced by, well, a certain lack of magic.
- **The Financial Fiasco:** Directors are apparently opting out of applying for gigs because they can’t afford to pay actors. Guess what, folks? In this economy, actors are more likely to starve faster than you can say “commercial series”!
- **Double Standards Galore:** Péterfy points out, quite rightly, that men in the industry can wade through the muck while women are still stuck in quicksand. Looks like gender dynamics could use a solid overhaul—or perhaps a bulldozer.
- **Accident Aftermath:** She didn’t pull any punches when discussing the dramatic communication style of Attila Vidnyánszky regarding an accident at the National Theater. If the set is dangerous, it’s time to put on your big boy pants and take responsibility, right?
- **Judgment Impairment:** And let’s not forget her final point—giving actors an immediate judgment pass. The scrutiny they face must be like being under a magnifying glass, only it’s more like a funhouse mirror—distorted and endless!
“In Rákay’s Philip Petőfi film, wonderful young actors play; by the way, it is not their fault at all that it is an unwatchable mess. So say no when you could film in such conditions? That’s why I wouldn’t take the actors out.”
In Conclusion: The Curtain Call
So there you have it—a backstage pass into the chaotic world of the entertainment industry through Péterfy’s eyes. This industry can often seem like a circus—clowns everywhere, and nobody quite knows who’s in charge. It’s refreshing, albeit alarming, to see someone like Bori boldly hitting the nail on the head.

And remember, folks: in a world where everyone’s scrambling to stay afloat, it’s the conversations like these that keep us from sinking completely.
He gave it to Telex After more than an hour long interview Bori Péterfy: during the conversation, his divorce, the entertainment industry that tolerates men more, and the Rákay Philip and Saint Butter referred to as his joint film Now or never! was also discussed.
Among other things, the following was said in the broadcast:
- if, as a woman, someone considers her career to be the first priority, then she is already selfish,
- today it would not be possible to do the workshop work that they did in the Krétakör, Árpád Schilling during the twelve years spent under his leadership (1996-2008),
- the directors do not apply, as they receive little money and it is impossible to pay the actors or leave for weeks,
- actors prefer to take on a role in a commercial series, otherwise they starve, or they prefer to go and do something mundane, collecting the money needed for the rent from several sources,
- double standards are still present in the entertainment industry, men have more room for maneuver,
- Attila Vidnyánszky communicated the accident at the National Theater in a disgusting way, since if a set is dangerous, then there is nothing to talk about and you have to take responsibility,
- it is not right to immediately judge an actor, since
In Rákay’s Philip Petőfi film, wonderful young actors play, by the way, it is not their fault at all that it is an unwatchable mess. So say no when you could film in such conditions? That’s why I wouldn’t take the actors out.
