A PROPOS-APPRO The last party before the short yet hopefully relaxing holiday was, of course, Appro. It is a fixer part during every semester. Every student knows it and every freshman has heard stories about it, for better or for worse. It sets itself apart from all the other Kupla parties by being the one that actually tests your durability under the influence of alcohol. How one can actually hold his or her liquor and who will be the one hugging the toilet at some point during the evening. Despite it being such a traditional and often repeated theme it also seems to be the only theme no student has complained about it happening over and over again. Maybe that is due to most of them not being able to remember the events of the previous night come morning or because drinking as the theme of a party being also the best theme for a party. New this time around was not just the after party commencing in the newly opened club Lux, but also special batches for the most able to hold a drink to sew onto their overalls. It was certainly an evening to remember. After all the best stories never start with: â€žDude, hold my tea, Iâ€˜m going to do a thing...â€œ And an evening spend drinking is an evening well spend - as long as you do it reasonably.

A MOST WANTED MAN(2014) / Director: Anton Corbjin / Genre: Thriller / Starring: Phillip Seymour Hoffman, Rachel McAdams/ Rating: A Most Wanted Men is a British espionage thriller based on the book by John le Carre. The almost tortured to death Russian-Chechen Issa Karpov turned up in Hamburg. While searching for the illegally obtained inheritance of his father he finds refuge with the Islamic community. The young and idealistic criminal defence lawyer Annabel Richter ends up helping Issa, as well as the banker Tommy Brue who watches over the fortune of Issa’s father. His activities soon grab the attention of the leader of a German espionage unit, Günther Bachmann, as well as that of CIA agent Martha Sullivan. In the course of the movie Issa appears to be the victim, perpetrator, imposter and extremist fanatic in one person who makes him the most wanted man. This highly emotional, action-driven movie won‘t let you go until the very last minute, at which point you may become really frustrated and angry. Then again, it is a superbly made, intelligent espionage story that comes across more contemporary than most movies of this category nowadays. It is a story about compassion, betrayal, power and the modern post 9/11 world we live in. The promise of the „Große Freiheit“ of Hamburg appears to shrink in a world filled with uncertainty and mistrust. All in all, a brilliantly made movie.
