Time For One Last Sweet Budapest Metro Underpass Ciggie!
Pestiside.hu — So as we reported earlier, as of August 5th smoking has been legally out of bounds in metro underpasses here in Budapest. What we didn't say at the time is that our underground overlords decided to give everyone a one-month "grace period" to get used to breathing in only stale, poopy air down there. Which means you have only two more days to do like the BKV employee caught in the act last week by contributor E.E. Rest assured, however, that you are still free to ride without buying a ticket and then mess your pants and curl up in a ball in the corner of your favorite metro station. Enjoy!

World Media Suffers Premature Ejaculation Over Hungarian Online Virginity Auction
Pestiside.hu — It looks like our decision to have a bit of an August slowdown was smart not only because we got to goof off - it also helped us avoid getting snookered by what surely must be the biggest dumbass non-story international story about Hungary of the summer, namely the saga of an 18-year-old young lady known only as "Miss Spring." As you may have heard, Hungary filled the "oddly enough" quota of numerous international media outlets early last month with reports that the aforementioned young woman was auctioning off her virginity on Ebay. It's not exactly clear where the story got its start - it looks like local tabloid Bors was on the case early - but within a few days top UK tab the Sun was titillating its readers with a version of the tale that had the action being won by an unnamed Brit with a bit of £200,000, which is roughly Ft 70 million, or approximately 15,000 excellent lays in your average Budapest whorehouse, give or take a few hundred vigorous baby-oil handjobs in the bathroom of the Nyugati tér metro underpass.

Did America Almost Bomb Its Own Embassy in Budapest?
Pestiside.hu — Over on Caboodle.hu we see that the US Embassy in Budapest - as well as several other buildings adjacent to it on District V's Szabadság tér - was evacuated yesterday due to the unearthing of a World War II-era bomb during some construction work. While we can't say for sure, the construction work that led to the explosive discovery seems to have involved putting in some spectacularly ugly anti-bomb pylons around the bunker-like embassy "compound." Also, what are the odds that the bomb itself had been dropped by an US plane, or at least one belonging to the Brits or another "allied" power? Either way, hahahahahahaha dumbass Americans! UPDATE: As pointed out in the comments below, a) the bomb was Soviet, and b) the work was being done on "gas pipes." As for a), recall that the Soviets were and "allied" power of the US, and b) the work on the gas pipes may still have something to do with the giant gas pipe/bomb-like poles Joe American is surrounding his bunker with. UPDATE (II): This just landed in our mailbag: "Who ever called Americans dumbass would give his right arm to live in a free country. Anvie is oozing from the negative reteric. And yes Brits are allied with USA without the young man and woman arriving 65 years ago you would be kissing naci assas." No comment!

Lift Up Your Hearts: A Tribute to Hungarian Filmmaking Great Alexander Korda
Pestiside.hu — [Editor's Note: Regular readers will remember this wonderful tribute to the Hungarian-American film impresario Adolph Zukor we published back in January, courtesy of another regular reader, who goes by the name Farkas László. Well, László has done it again, this time with a video-annotated profile of Alexander Korda, the Hungarian-born director who, like Zukor, is considered one of the cinematic legends of the 20th century. Read, watch and marvel, and thanks as always for the memories, László.] It is an extraordinary, almost probability defying coincidence that in the small nation of Hungary, within a few kilometers of each other, were born three men who would go on to world fame as founders of international film studios and as celebrity film moguls. Adolph Zukor of Paramount, Vilmos Fried (later William Fox) of 20th Century Fox and Alexander Korda of London Film Studios. This is a legacy that I will never tire of reminding my fellow Hungarians of, as I feel our film pioneers were positive examples to us of initiative and creativity. I am very proud of the long list of achievements that Hungarian born people have contributed to world cinema. In order to celebrate that heritage, it gives me great pleasure to present to you the life and work of Alexander Korda and his two younger brother associates, Vincent and Zoltán. The Jungle Book (1942) Produced by Alexander Korda and directed by Zoltán Korda. Music by Miklós Rózsa. Another great children's fantasy and adventure film, based on the story by Rudyard Kipling. The use and saturation of that early Technicolor process by Korda was intense and livid, somewhat like an altered state. Received 4 Academy Award nominations, including for set design and color. On September 16, 1893, Alexander Korda was born Sándor László Kellner in Túrkeve in Jász-Nagykun-Szolnok county, east of Budapest on the great Hungarian plain. Located on the super flat puszta, Sándor was affected from childhood by the monotony of a very small town, seemingly located in the middle of nowhere on a landscape that offered no relief or contrast. Looking in all directions and seeing nothing but the plain, aroused in him a burning fascination from childhood on to know and experience more about the world beyond his horizon. From the earliest age, he craved more intellectual and cultural stimulation than the rural environment he was born into could provide. The Third Man (1949) Produced by Alexander Korda. Based on a story by Graham Greene with set design by Vincent Korda. This gritty Orson Welles classic, filmed on location in postwar Vienna, has been a huge success with both critics and audiences alike since it was released. One sees a very beautiful city in ruins along children dying from black marketing in aid and medicine. The stark black and white photography is unforgettable and the folly that was WW2 becomes very evident. Also of interest to history buffs is seeing the division and control of Vienna by the four Allied powers in a manner similar to Berlin, an arrangement that ended in the 1950's. The musical score was performed entirely by Anton Karas on the zither, who after this film became a star in his own right, as the theme song became a well recognized hit. Nominated for three Oscars in 1951, it won the award for best black and white cinematography. Won Grand Prize at the Canes Film Festival in 1949. Sándor's father was a sergeant in the hussars who turned estate manager for the Salgó family. The father died when Sándor was 13, leaving the family penniless. In 1908 he moved to Budapest with his mother and two younger brothers, Vincent and Zoltán. At that young age, he feels the responsibility of being the paterfamilias, especially towards his younger brothers. Thus started a relationship that lasted all their lives, where they worked together, stayed together and accepted the older brother as a leader and family head. It was to be a fruitful collaboration, as each brother had strong talents. VÉN BAKANCSOS ÉS FIA A HUSZÁR (The Old Infantryman and His Son the Hussar) circa 1914 With Hungarian title cards. Little of Hungary's silent film legacy is available on YouTube unfortunately, but that is changing, as more films show up or are restored. Made at the Corvin Studios in Kolozsvár (Now Cluj in Romania) around the time Alexander Korda went there to work in 1915, it gives us a rare glimpse into the film world he entered. The film looks primitive today, but was on par with the state of film production worldwide at that time. In two parts on YouTube, running over six minutes. (I'm not sure we have the complete film, as the title card says it's in four parts.) Movies were a very big hit with Hungarians from the get-go. Perhaps there is something in the national temperament that accounts for this. Film takes a drama, gives it immediacy and blows it up to larger than real life size, something that matches well with the emotional makeup of many Hungarians! Just five years after Edison invents his film projector apparatus in 1891, the first films were shown in Budapest in 1896. Sándor saw his first film at the Café Velence, as coffee shops were a common venue for showing films then. He attended gymnasium (high school) and made extra money for the family by writing articles and reviews for a liberal daily newspaper called Független Magyarország ("Independent Hungary"). Students were not supposed to be employed, and so Sándor looked about for a pseudonym to write under. In a Budapest theater he saw written on the wall the Latin phrase Sursum Corda ("Lift up your hearts"). This appealed to him, partly because he had by then become fascinated with the Catholic mass, where this term was also used. He decided to call himself "Korda," changing the "c" to a "k" thinking that would make it look more Hungarian. That his two other brothers went along with this later on tells something of the influence the older sibling had. THE PRIVATE LIFE OF HENRY THE VIII (1933) Directed by Alexander Korda. Writer Lajos Biró. (6:10 minute portion) A comedy about the famous king and his marriages. In it Charles Laughton plays a henpecked husband who nonetheless can opt to behead his wives. Featuring Merle Oberon (the second Mrs. Alexander Korda) playing Anne Boleyn. The film launched a lot of things: Korda's reputation, the career rise of both Laughton and Oberon, and it cemented Britain's place in the international film industry. Laughton won the 1933 Best Actor Oscar for his role, and the picture was the first British film to be nominated for Best Picture by the Academy Awards. Unfortunately I can only offer a clip of the film. The studio publicity people came up with the ad slogan: "He gave his wives a pain in the neck - and he did his necking with an ax. Henry, the eighth wonder of the world!"

The Reigning Miss Hungary, Conveniently Missing Her Top
Sexiside.hu — anett-maximovits-topless.jpg While it's not uncommon for a Miss Hungary to strip her clothes off after her reign, it's considered a big no-no to do so before, which is why we're all the more surprised to have learned that – in all likelihood – the photos of a certain "Xeni Barberi" (above right) available at silicon-averse nudie site Perfect 10 are none other than current Miss Hungary Anett Maximovits (above left).
