József Szilas

József Szilas (born 1910) was a Hungarian film editor.

[1][2] He was active as an editor during the 1930s, working on films from a range of genres but particularly comedies.

However, of Jewish heritage, the new anti-Jewish Laws prevented him from working in the cinema.

His date of death is unknown, but he likely died while working as a forced labourer during the Holocaust.
