The movie, though, is obscure for a reason. It bombed hard and sank into oblivion, and its director died a few years later, unable to realize any of his future film plans. ''Foam Bath'''s failure also meant the studio put a tighter leash on its creators -- thankfully, a few standout artistic achievements did still come out, such as ''Animation/SonOfTheWhiteHorse''. It wasn't until the 90s and 2000s that Kovásznai's works were rediscovered and placed into proper historical context, and though the movie still hasn't quite become a CultClassic, it is now more accessible and gaining newfound recognition. As a sign of its slow surge in popularity, the film was given a [[{{remaster}} restored]] re-release and a French Blu-ray set in 2021. In 2023, an American Blu-ray release was also announced.

* AgeGapRomance: Zsolt is in his forties, set to marry Klára who is 23. He points out the absurdity, saying that in his age he'd need a nurse more than a clingy wife who wants him to father five kids. He would rather romance the 25 year old Anna, a nurse in-the-making.

* ExcusePlot: As admitted by the filmmakers, the plot is banally simple on purpose. The film's main concern was discussing social topics, evoking moods with its songs and visuals and encapsulating the zeitgeist of the era.
