Cannes 2010’s Top 10 New Faces: Introducing Rudolf Frecska

Date:

#6. Rudolf Frecska

I imagine it may have been easier as a first acting role to remain chilled, and keep a non-expressive, emotionless face throughout, but that would be short-selling and easily dismissing Rudolf Frecska’s debut perf — a role, that certainly alludes to characteristics of the famed Hollywood created monster and which carries a certain physicality to it and that is still an all-encompassing display of doing plenty with a very rigid character. I think that several film fests will request Kornel Mundruczó’s Tender Son – The Frankenstein Project, and I believe the director will probably use the actor on film once again – before, has since taken over the role
of Vor in Sorokin’s The Ice directed by Mundruczó, a National Theatre of Hungary theater production.
