Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox film Huwen op Bevel (also known as Terpaksa Menikah, both meaning Forced to Marry) is a 1931 romance film from the Dutch East Indies (now Indonesia). Directed by G. Krugers and thought to have been produced by Tan's Film, it follows two young lovers who are nearly separated but can ultimately be together. A critical flop, it was Krugers's last as a director. It is likely lost.
Plot

Production
Huwen op Bevel was directed by the Indo director G. Krugers and produced by Krugers in collaboration with Tan Khoen Yauw of Tan's Film. The Indonesian film historian Misbach Yusa Biran suggests that Krugers, whose last film Karnadi Anemer Bangkong (1930) was produced by his own Krugers Filmbedrijf in Bandung, had run out of funds during production and thus began working for Tan;Шаблон:Sfn he credits this to Karnadi Anemer BangkongШаблон:'s failure.Шаблон:Sfn Concurrently with his work on Huwen op Bevel, for which he also handled the cinematography, Krugers likely served as cameraman for Tan's talkie version of Njai Dasima, directed by Bachtiar Effendi.Шаблон:Sfn
The film's dialogue was in Malay.Шаблон:Sfn Songs were sung by the kroncong group Tembang Ketjapi.Шаблон:Sfn
Release and reception

Huwen op Bevel received negative reviews. One in the Batavia-based Het Nieuws van den dag voor Nederlandsch-Indië found the film to lack contrast and have poor vocal synchronisation; the reviewer summarised that "turning the crank is not enough; a filmmaker must master the technique".Шаблон:EfnШаблон:Sfn The film was a commercial failureШаблон:Sfn and proved Krugers's last film.

Huwen op Bevel is likely a lost film. The American visual anthropologist Karl G. Heider writes that all Indonesian films made before 1950 are lost.Шаблон:Sfn However, JB Kristanto's Katalog Film Indonesia (Indonesian Film Catalogue) records several as having survived at Sinematek Indonesia's archives, and Biran writes that several Japanese propaganda films have survived at the Netherlands Government Information Service.Шаблон:Sfn Some contemporary reviews gave Indonesian-language translations of the title, like Nika Terpaksa.Шаблон:Sfn More recent sources have given the translation Terpaksa Menikah.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn
