UPDATE: No more cabins left, but you can still reserve a room in the bunkhouse, just let us know, (no need to call the camp office).

Coming up: Easter Camp 2009, on April 10-11-12 (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) at the beautiful Springmaid Mountain Camp, in Spruce Pine, North Carolina.

The campground is located on 400 acres of beautiful mountain land, just a mile and a half off the Blue Ridge Parkway. On site they offer horseback riding, hay rides, hiking, fishing, canoeing, rafting and other watersports if weather/water conditions comply. Of course we will have all the fun Hungarian activities, such as dancing, singing, cooking, traditional arts and crafts, Easter customs, kids' activities, campfire, etc. See more details on our message board.

You can camp, book a room in the bunkhouse or rent a separate cabin. This year we have reserved all the buildings on the campground, so we will have the whole place to ourselves. We are expecting more than a hundred people, and the camp housing usually fills up very quickly, so it would be wise to reserve the lodging of your choice ASAP.

The complete list of all possible housings (with pictures, info and reservation fee) is available on our message board: http://www.meetup.com.... To reserve your cabin now, call the Camp Office at 828-765-2353 or toll free at 888-297-0725.

Visit the camp's website at http://www.springmaid....

Looking forward to seeing you there!

It has been a REALLY long time since we all went to Martini's and IMAX at Fernbank Museum and Zsolt and I thought it would be a great way to celebrate our birthdays and see everyone!

We are planning on heading to Fernbank after work and meeting at 7:00 p.m. for martini's. The movie we are going to see is Africa's Elephant Kingdom at 10:00 p.m. That way we have a few hours to mingle and catch up while enjoying drinks.

Please buy your ticket online at IMAX Tickets or by calling (404) 929-6400.

Your ticket to see Africa's Elephant Kingdom at 10:00 p.m. is your entrance to Fernbank to enjoy drinks. If you do not want to see the movie, but want to join us at 7:00 p.m. there is a $7 cover charge to get in.

There will also be live music provided by Rai Ragland. RAi and her trio will host an exciting evening of swing, blues, Latin, ballads and more.

See you there!

Dear Friends,

On March 25th Wednesday I will be showing to my class "The Unburied Man"
(2004), a story of Imre Nagy, Prime Minister of the Hungarian
Revolution. The internationally renowned Director, Márta Mészáros,
inserted documentary footage among the flashbacks recapturing
sequences of Nagy's earlier life. The movie presents the process through
which Nagy, a faithful Communist reformer, is caught in the storm of the
Revolution inadvertently, but finally assumes his role as the spokesman
of a nation and choses death and honor.

Mészáros was married to the famous director Miklós Jancsó, and this
film, like many others by her, is photographed by their common son,
Nyika Jancsó. They divorced in the 1970's, and Mészáros developed a
distinguished style of her own, concentrating on subtle human
interactions, while her theme became women's coping with critical
situations, and, in the famous Diary series, her own struggle for
self-liberation in a Communist family environment.

The present film, her most recent, is a straightforward treatment of the
subject, though with her usual touches of human intimacy.

The title refers to the fact that after his execution in June 1958, Imre
Nagy's body was buried by an unmarked grave (and probably naked), as in
the case of other victims of the Kádár terror after 1956. In the
beginning sequence we see two young women (perhaps his grandchildren)
who are bringing flowers to the neglected woods in
the cemetery where they thought his grave might be. In another scene,
mounted police chase away family members commemorating the anniversary
of the execution.

The graves of the martyrs were only explored and identified in 1989,
when the remains were re-buried in a great national ceremony.

I look forward to seeing you tomorrow night at 6.00, at White Hall 112.
