Hungarian actor and director Sándor Góth (1869-1946) was one of the great pioneers of the Hungarian cinema. During the 1910s, he directed a series of short films for the Hunnia Biográf company, in a style strongly influenced by the stage. In Paris, he appeared in two Hungarian language versions of Paramount films, Az orvos titka/The Doctor's Secret (Tibor Hegedüs, 1930), and Kacagó asszony/The Laughing Lady (Tibor Hegedüs, 1930), which in fact marked the start of Hungarian sound film. As an actor, he was the unparalleled artist of the conversation style. He was characterised by his excellent ability to form characters and to make parodies. Between 1931-39 he taught at the School for Dramatic Arts. One of his books is the interesting Ha Moliere naplót írt volna (1946).
