Casting Everything (2008): cast, story & where to watch
2008 · Film · ★ 7.5

Released in 2008, Casting Everything is a notable film directed by Péter Tímár, running about 90 minutes.
What it’s about. The story is based around an American Idol kind of TV talent show and the eventual winner of the contest: a young orphan woman, who works at an orphanage herself. As I learned from the werkfilm on the DVD, the story was specifically written for Oláh, who in real life was the runner-up of the very first such TV show in Hungary “Megasztár” (“MegaStar”) in 2004. She didn’t win there despite being many viewers’ favorite and having a terrific voice. It is kind of a consolation that she won in the movie, although reading the legal troubles about getting her fee must have made the victory sour.
Who’s in it. Casting Everything stars Ibolya Oláh as Kati Ormos, András Kern as Rezső, Edit Balázsovits as Panni and Szonja Oroszlán, among others.
How it landed. With an audience score of 7.5/10, Casting Everything has been warmly received by audiences.
