Andras Hamori, Producer of ‘Crash,’ Dies at 71


Hungarian film and television producer Andras Hamori, who produced films like 'Crash' and shows such as 'The Gate,' died Sept. 2. He was 71.

Starting as a film critic and short filmmaker in 1970s Budapest, Hamori was first encouraged to move to North America and chase his film-producing dreams by Hungarian-Canadian theater director John Hirsch. Hamori got his break working with fellow Hungarian native Robert Lantos before becoming a partner at Alliance Entertainment, a leading Canadian film and television producer and distributor that operated from 1984 to 2013. He was drawn to unique, visionary stories, often with a literary bent, that could sustain the passion it took to usher them through the years-long development, financing, and production process,” read Hamori’s official obituary.
