Sväng & Tara Fuki (Concert)

MUPA, 9th December, 19:30, 1500Ft - 3400Ft
Komor Marcell u. 1 [map]
Pest South, IX Millenniumi Kulturális Központ (T2) 3 min

"The harmonica's play the skeleton keys in the rain," well, in the Palace of Arts, at least. Finnish harmonica bands are in short supply in Budapest or, indeed, anywhere. Balkan, Gypsy, Russian, Appalachian and Transylvanian influences are the flesh around the Finnish bones. Website here. Tara Fuki, a Czech female cello/singing duo ensure that there's no average set-up this evening. Website here.

Cradle of Filth and other Dark Scary Rock Bands (Concert)
Petőfi Csarnok, 9th December, 7900Ft
What's in your cradle? A baby? No. Filth. Whoaaah, it doesn't get darker than that! Apart from Gorgoroth, perhaps. Or Septic Flesh. Urrrrgh! Dee-scuss-ting! But who's the filthiest? You tell me. How much?

The Apartment (Film)
Örökmozgó [website], 9th December, 20:30
This "Billy 'Some Like It Hot' Wilder Production" won 5 Oscars in 1960, including Best Director and Best Picture. Working your way up has always meant the same thing: compromising yourself. Jack Lemmon stars in this classic, serious comedy. Review here. Showing in English.

Rekontra (Concert)
Pótkulcs [map], 21:00, 9th December, free
They weren't on last week. Well, if they were, they weren't advertised. We put them in all the time, we know but that's because they're a guaranteed good old Hungarian time. Listen here.
