Question: Do both directors of films The Devil (1918 Hungarian Film) and Hamlet (1948 Film) have the same nationality?

The Leopard is a 1918 Hungarian film directed by Alfréd Deésy and featuring Béla Lugosi. <SEP> Michael Curtiz (born Manó Kaminer(1886-1905) He directed classic films from the silent era and numerous others during Hollywood's Golden Age, when the studio system was prevalent. Curtiz was already a well-known director in Europe when Warner Bros. invited him to Hollywood in 1926, when he was 39 years of age. He had already directed 64 films in Europe, and soon helped Warner Bros. become the fastest-growing movie studio. He directed 102 films during his Hollywood career, mostly at Warners, where he directed ten actors to Oscar nominations. James Cagney and Joan Crawford won their only Academy Awards under Curtiz's direction. He put Doris Day and John Garfield on screen for the first time, and he made stars of Errol Flynn, Olivia de Havilland, and Bette Davis. He himself was nominated five times and won twice, once for Best Short Subject for "Sons of Liberty" and once as Best Director for "Casablanca". Curtiz introduced to Hollywood a unique visual style using artistic lighting, extensive and fluid camera movement, high crane shots, and unusual camera angles. He was versatile and could handle any kind of picture: melodrama, comedy, love story, film noir, musical, war story, Western, or historical epic. Mihály Kertész (1905); December 24, 1886 April 11, 1962) was a Hungarian-born American film director, recognized as one of the most prolific directors in history. He always paid attention to the human-interest aspect of every story, stating that the "human and fundamental problems of real people" were the basis of all good drama. Curtiz helped popularize the classic swashbuckler with films such as "Captain Blood" (1935) and "The Adventures of Robin Hood" (1938). He directed many dramas which today are also considered classics, "Angels with Dirty Faces" (1938), "The Sea Wolf" (1941), "Casablanca" (1942), and "Mildred Pierce" (1945). He directed leading musicals, including "Yankee Doodle Dandy" (1942), " This Is the Army" (1943), and "White Christmas", and he made comedies with "Life With Father" (1947) and "We're No Angels" (1955). <SEP> He also worked in films throughout his career, playing more than fifty cinema roles. Late in his career, he had considerable success in television roles. His family had no theatrical connections, but Olivier's father, a clergyman, decided that his son should become an actor. After attending a drama school in London, Olivier learned his craft in a succession of acting jobs during the late 1920s. In 1930 he had his first important West End success in Noël Coward's" Private Lives", and he appeared in his first film. In 1935 he played in a celebrated production of" Romeo and Juliet" alongside Gielgud and Ashcroft, and by the end of the decade he was an established star. In the 1940s, together with Richardson and John Burrell, Olivier was the co-director of the Old Vic, building it into a highly respected company. There his most celebrated roles included Shakespeare's Richard III and Sophocles's Oedipus. In the 1950s Olivier was an independent actor-manager, but his stage career was in the doldrums until he joined the" avant garde" English Stage Company in 1957 to play the title role in" The Entertainer", a part he later played on film. From 1963 to 1973 he was the founding director of Britain's National Theatre, running a resident company that fostered many future stars. His own parts there included the title role in" Othello"( 1965) and Shylock in" The Merchant of Venice"( 1970). Among Olivier's films are" Wuthering Heights"( 1939)," Rebecca"( 1940), and a trilogy of Shakespeare films as actor-director:" Henry V"( 1944)," Hamlet"( 1948), and" Richard III"( 1955). His later films included" The Shoes of the Fisherman"( 1968)," Sleuth"( 1972)," Marathon Man"( 1976), and" The Boys from Brazil"( 1978). Laurence Kerr Olivier, Baron Olivier,( 22 May 1907 – 11 July 1989) was an English actor and director who, along with his contemporaries Ralph Richardson, Peggy Ashcroft and John Gielgud, dominated the British stage of the mid-20th century. His television appearances included an adaptation of" The Moon and Sixpence"( 1960)," Long Day's Journey into Night"( 1973)," Love Among the Ruins"( 1975)," Cat on a Hot Tin Roof"( 1976)," Brideshead Revisited"( 1981) and" King Lear"( 1983). Olivier's honours included a knighthood( 1947), a life peerage( 1970) and the Order of Merit( 1981). For his on- screen work he received four Academy Awards, two British Academy Film Awards, five Emmy Awards and three Golden Globe Awards. The National Theatre's largest auditorium is named in his honour, and he is commemorated in the Laurence Olivier Awards, given annually by the Society of London Theatre. He was married three times, to the actresses Jill Esmond from 1930 to 1940, Vivien Leigh from 1940 to 1960, and Joan Plowright from 1961 until his death. <SEP> " Hamlet" was Olivier's second film as director, and also the second of the three Shakespeare films that he directed( the 1936" As You Like It" had starred Olivier, but had been directed by Paul Czinner). " Hamlet" was the first British film to win the Academy Award for Best Picture. Hamlet is a 1948 British film adaptation of William Shakespeare's play of the same name, adapted and directed by and starring Sir Laurence Olivier. It is also the first sound film of the play in English. A 1935 sound film adaptation," Khoon Ka Khoon", had been made in India and filmed in the Urdu language. Olivier's" Hamlet" is the Shakespeare film that has received the most prestigious accolades, winning the Academy Awards for Best Picture and Best Actor and the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival. However, it proved controversial among Shakespearean purists, who felt that Olivier had made too many alterations and excisions to the four- hour play by cutting nearly two hours' worth of content. Milton Shulman wrote in" The Evening Standard To some it will be one of the greatest films ever made, to others a deep disappointment. Laurence Olivier leaves no doubt that he is one of our greatest living actors ... his liberties with the text, however, are sure to disturb many." <SEP> Lulu is a 1918 Hungarian film directed by Michael Curtiz and featuring Béla Lugosi. <SEP> The film was remade for American audiences by James Young in 1921, starring George Arliss in his film debut. The Devil( 1918) is a Hungarian film version of Ferenc Molnár's play, directed by Michael Curtiz.
