In other words, the information

I saw a documentary about Lajos Fülep on channel Duna2. It was a very good movie; this is why it is worth watching TV. I was particularly glad that my favorite contemporary poet - László Lator - also appeared in this film. I always enjoy listening to how he speaks of someone or something with childlike enthusiasm and bright eyes. He wrote a poem that feels as if it came from my soul.

The personality, knowledge and world view of Lajos Fülep is so impressive that it would have deserved a longer documentary. This is not to criticize the movie but to appreciate Lajos Fülep.

My personal involvement with Lajos Fülep is some common favourites: his favourite philosopher was Socrates, in his opinion the greatest twentieth century painter was Csontváryt, and he was almost the first to praise Ady.
