Let’s Celebrate! The 50th Event of the Australian Film Club

Facebook event

You surely know without looking at the title of the event that we’ve had 49 screenings since our beginnings in 2010. During this time we showed several Aussie classics and lesser-known “cult” movies, and managed to forge a dedicated group of fans, including people who have tangible ties to Australia. What is more, in the past 12-15 months we tried to create a little more buzz around the film club which resulted in having new faces among our audience, some of whom became regulars.

We’re thrilled to announce that the 50th occasion has come, marking a turning point in the history of the film club. With this screening, we’re moving to a new venue, Művelődési Szint (Müszi), not far fromÖrökmozgó Filmmúzeum. (It’s pretty remarkable that we could stay in one place for 5 years.) MÜSZi’s openness to a younger generation of people and their stronger connection to Internet media (e.g. port.hu) is expected to boost our popularity and bring more fans to us. Furthermore, the different technical conditions will enable us to screen more “rare” pieces, increasing the diversity of our repertoire. As a bonus, the venue has a bar and a larger area to socialize, so we won’t have to look for a place to go “after hours”.

To celebrate this change, the 50th event will be somewhat different to our usual fare. We decided to break the tradition by showing 3 films back-to-back, and looking at the titles we found that Mad Max hasn’t yet made an appearance on our screen. To make up for this omission, we’re going to screen the original trilogy in all its fuel-injected glory so you’ll be able to see what made ol’ Mel famous back in the day.

Tickets will cost 600 HUF/person/film, so if you decide to stay all along, it means 1800 HUF. The films start at 16.00, 18.00 and 20.00, respectively, with roughly 30-minute intermissions in-between. We’ll have the cinema room until 22.30, but we can stay at MÜSZi after that.

Hope to see you there! ;)
