Andor Vidor
Hungarian cinematographer (1912–1943)
Andor Vidor (1912–1943) was a Hungarian cinematographer.[1][2] Vidor was born in Budapest of Jewish heritage, the nephew of screenwriter Ladislaus Vajda and a cousin of Ladislao Vajda. He trained under the guidance of István Eiben and went on to shoot a dozen Hungarian films during the 1930s, generally romantic comedies. His career was halted by the introduction of the Anti-Jewish Laws of 1938 aimed to remove those of Jewish ethnicity from the Hungarian film industry. His final work was as editor on the 1939 sports comedy film 3:1 a szerelem javára[3] The exact date and location of his death are unclear, although he was working as a forced labourer in Axis-controlled territory.
