Sári Déry (1911–1952) was a Hungarian stage and film actress.[1] [2] She was married three times, including to the actor Nándor Bihary. She was born in Bratislava, then part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire but later part of Czechoslovakia. After first appearing on stage in Bratislava, she emigrated to Budapest where she appeared at a variety of theatres. In the early 1950s she was persecuted by the Communist regime and had to leave Budapest, something loosely portrayed in the 1984 film Oh, Bloody Life. She died of appendicitis in 1952 in rural Hungary.
