The success shook up the whole country, as we watched our startlingly successful soccer team score goals game by game. When playing 3-3 with the world-famous Portuguese eleven (meaning Hungary scored three goals to Portugal), Budapest turned upside down for a whole night of celebrations as the nation stood flushed with victory and elated with joy! The traffic stopped, buses and trams stood empty on the road, people went out to the streets to sing and cheer for the break of the forty-year-long curse!<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Harrison Ford has Came to Town<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.funzine.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/harrison-ford-1-e1475068032394.jpg\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Budapest is favoured by many Hollywood filmmakers who chose the Hungarian capital for its beautiful architecture and easily disguisable sceneries. This year, no other than all-time charmer Harrison Ford \u2013 accompanied by his younger mate, Ryan Gosling \u2013 came to stay for the shooting of Blade Runner II. Mr. Ford didn\u2019t play hide and seek: he appeared around various spots all over town posing for selfies with waiters and waitresses of his favourite local restaurants. We were enthusiastic about alluring possibility of a meetup, but for unknown reasons, both of the Hollywood heartbreakers managed to keep off the FUNZINE editorial office. We look forward to their next visit!<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">And the Oscar Goes to\u2026<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/irrV-p_UCbc\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Directed by the only 39 year-old L\u00e1szl\u00f3 Nemes Jeles, Son of Saul took the film industry by storm. Besides the European audiences, it was highly praised by none other than the members of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. Being nominated for an Oscar is a great achievement in itself, but taking the statuette home is an even more historic act. Son of Saul impressed the Academy and we were given a chance to hear another Hungarian\u2019s speech filled with gratitude and humbleness. This was the second Oscar (the first was earned back in 1982 by Istv\u00e1n Szab\u00f3 for the movie Mephisto ) and ninth nomination for Hungary.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Tam\u00e1s Sz\u00e9ll Cooked it Up<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.funzine.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/bocusedor_szerda_br-2380.jpg\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">34 year-old chef Tam\u00e1s Sz\u00e9ll has won this year\u2019s Bocuse d\u2019Or Europe making the whole country proud by gaining the continent\u2019s most prestigious title in gastronomy. His compositions \u2013 that amazed the jury of world-renowned chefs \u2013 consisted of such creatively served dishes such as a leg of young deer grilled on charcoal with hungarian spices, mushrooms and smoked magalicza pork fat. This way, Sz\u00e9ll will take part in the World Final that will be organized on 25 and 25 January, in Lyon, France. That\u2019s the way to go, Mr. Sz\u00e9ll, we\u2019re excitedly waiting for another round of divine delicacies!<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sziget Festival<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.funzine.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/xl_artist_1864_20160726111059_1dc7c563.jpg\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Budapest is famous for several sights and Sziget Festival is surely one of them! The Island of Freedom earned a name for itself in the recent years, attracting many thousands from all over the globe to travel to the greenbelts of Buda and enjoy the Woodstock-like atmosphere, the kickass concerts performed by first-rate artists. The well-like spot of festival goers has become even more favoured, welcoming 496 thousand people this year. The fact of having almost half millions visitors exceeded all expectations!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Another year is ending, but before we dive into the possibilities of
