About Me

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSBT_oqIuhg

Martin Buzora was born on June 24, 1984 in Budapest, Hungary as the younger son to parents Steven Buzora, a professional drummer and Sophie Kovacs, an art teacher. Brought up in a family of passionate travelers, Martin was exposed to different cultures from a very early age. At age 12 he moved with his family to Ontario, Canada where he lived out his teenage years. After high school, Martin was accepted into the Computer Science program at the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada. After completing his first year, Martin decided to pursue his dreams in Filmmaking instead and completed the Film Studies program at Ryerson University in Toronto, Canada.

His final film in school, “A Woman of Wealth and Taste” (2005) was a romantic drama which was featured in several independent North American film festivals including “New York International Independent Film Festival”. Since then, Martin has worked as Director of Photography and Editor on several independent feature films. In 2007 Martin started “Black Fawn Films” with long-time business partner Chad Archibald.

Precious: Based on the Novel 'Push' by Sapphire

Amazing movie. Unbelievable performances from the mother and Precious. Amazingly written, the story was intelligently and carefully handled and the directing was fantastic. The only problem with this movie is that it's about 10 minutes too long. After the scene where Precious breaks down in the classroom there were 2 scenes which were completely unnecessary and even needlessly confusing - the scene where Precious hands the red ribbon to the little girl in the waiting room, and the scene with the little white kid in the classroom. (By the way... who WAS that kid?!?! All of a sudden appeared out of nowhere!) Both scenes should have been ommitted. Otherwise... the best movie I've seen in a year. 4.5 out of 5 for sure!!!
