The idea of a Hungarian fan meeting came up in the last few days, so I've decided to post all the information here to make it easy to stay in touch. The place would be somewhere in Budapest because it's easy to reach. The time is not fixed yet, so I'm opened to suggestions! However, since not all of us are from Budapest, we would have to make it a Friday or a Saturday. This is how far we are now, hope to hear from you soon! If you talk to someone, who is on this forum, but hasn't been active lately, tell her too.

Those who were attendance were: (Judith and Dora)... And of course, me, for it was at my place that this wonderful time was had. My friend Judith was nice enough to pick up Dora with me at the train station that is closest to my home...because we didn't want Dora getting lost! Dora brought with her a bottle of Bacardi to liven up the festivities. As we drive back to my place, I told the others of my wonderful and unforgettable experiences with meeting Ralph over the past year. Once we were at my place... We started to watch the "promo" video I had of the making of Sunshine, a film that we talked a lot about that night. In it was also the ceremony where Ralph won his European Film Award for the film. Ralph also spoke a few words in Hungarian (to show his respect to the director István Szabó)... And even said to István, "szeretlek" ... Which means "I love you"... Dora showed the others some of the magazine articles and interviews she had collected... She spoke of one particular interview from 1999 that Ralph did for the film Sunshine.. And at the end of the interview, he drew a flower and said in Hungarian "virág" indicating he drew a Hungarian flower. There was a lot of time spent going over the many photographs of Ralph that everyone brought with them to the meeting. I showed everyone all the wonderful autographs I have collected from my encounters with Ralph, as well as other things from my wonderful trips to London. I also gave my friends some gifts of some flyers from both God of Carnage and Oedipus, as well as some stage door photos I had taken when I had the chance to see Ralph in both plays. Everyone seemed thrilled with my little gifts. We all sat down to watch such things as Ralph on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno and some of the outtakes from the English Patient where everyone laughed at the fact that no one in the film could dance! We also watched the Onegin press junket, and started to watch the Inside the Actor's Studio.. But we didn't have time to watch the whole thing. We did get a chance to watch the film Oscar and Lucinda in full, which all enjoyed immensely (Dora had not seen the film before), unfortunately Judith had to leave, but Dora stayed through the evening. I did put on Onegin, but by the time that film started, it was very late... The next day, Dora and I watched the End of the Affair.. It was another film that Dora had never seen before and by the time it was over it was time for her to go. Before this great meeting was over.. We all decided to go and see Ralph in Uncle Vanya next year in London together... IF he does the play. Everyone laughed and enjoyed each other's company so much... That there WILL DEFINITELY be another meeting of fans... Hopefully with even more fans and future friends NEXT TIME!
