The Stationmaster Meets His Match

According to an interview with Imre Olvasztó, the casting for Bendegúz' role was held in an orphanage. The casting crew told the children that who kicks the director from behind will get the role. No one believed, only Olvasztó had the courage. After kicking Sándor Mihályfy he was asked why he did that. Olvasztó replied in a polite manner that he wanted to get the role. Mihályfy laughed and hired him.

In the middle of the dumpling fight scene Imre Olvasztó throws Róbert Koltai in the eye. Koltai leaves the room, holding his face. However he is seen in the room lying under the table in the next shot.
