in Csenger, Hungary
Eszenyi Enikő (Csenger, 1961. január 11. –) Kossuth- és Jászai Mari-díjas magyar színésznő, színházi rendező, érdemes művész, a Vígszínház igazgatója.

Eszenyi Enikő Csengerben született, Szabolcs-Szatmár-Megyében. Tanulmányait a budapesti Színház- és Filmművészeti Főiskolán végezte, ahol színésznőként szerzett diplomát 1983-ban. Mesterei Horvai István és Kapás Dezső voltak. A Vígszínházban töltötte két éves főiskolai gyakorlatát, majd 1983-ban oda is szerződött.

Színészként számos fontos szerepet eljátszott már a drámairodalom remekműveiből, elsősorban Shakespeare nőalakjai közül Lady Annát, Lady Machbeth-et, Kleopátrát, Rosalindát, Violát, a Lear királyban pedig Cordéliát és a Bolondot. Emlékezetes alakításai között szerepel Szent Johanna (Shaw: Szent Johanna), Nasztya (Gorkij: Éjjeli menedékhely), Blanche (Tennessee Williams: A vágy villamosa), Margaret (Tennesse Williams: Macska a forró tetőn), Alison (Osborne: Dühöngő ifjúság), Nóra (Ibsen: Nóra), Lulu (Frank Wedekind: Lulu), Ranyevszkaja (Csehov Cseresznyéskert). Színészi munkáját  a szakma több előadásban is a legjobb alakításért járó díjjal jutalmazta.

Eszenyi Enikő 1991-ben kezdett rendezni. Első bemutatójára a Budapesti Kamaraszínházban került sor, ahol Büchner Leonce és Lénáját állította színpadra, mely hét díjat nyert az 1991-es Országos Színházi Találkozón – köztük a legjobb rendezésért járó elismerést és a legjobb férfi illetve legjobb női főszereplőnek járó díjakat is –, és nagy sikerrel játszották további öt évadon keresztül. Következő évadban Marton László igazgató felkérésére a Vígszínház nagyszínpadán megrendezte A West Side Story-t, mellyel ismét elnyerte a legjobb rendezés díját. Következő munkája – Kleist Heilbronni Katicája – is hasonló szakmai- és közönségsikert aratott és elnyerte a legjobb díszlet és a legjobb jelmez díját, és az egyik színész munkáját a legjobb férfi mellékszereplőnek járó díjjal honorálták.

Külföldi munkái mellett fáradhatatlanul rendezett Budapesten a Vígszínházban illetve a Pesti Színházban. A klasszikus drámairodalom remekművei közül színpadra állította Osztrovszkij Négy lába van a lónak, mégis megbotlik és Beumarchais Figaro házassága című drámáját; a kortársak közül pedig Grumberg Varrónők; Winterberg-Rukov-Hansen Az ünnep és Tracy Letts Augusztus Oklahomában című művét. Az Augusztus Oklahomában rendezése több szakmai elismerést illetve díjat kapott, és sikerrel szerepelt a Pécsi Országos Színházi Találkozón. 

Eszenyi Enikő munkásságát nemcsak szakmai díjakkal és elismerésekkel, de több állami kitüntetéssel jutalmazták: a Jászai Mari-díj és az Érdemes Művész elismerés után 2002-ben megkapta a Kossuth-díjat, ami a legrangosabb magyar állami kitüntetés, 2007-ben pedig a Magyar Köztársaság Tisztikeresztjét. 2010-ben a Magyar Kultúra Nagykövetének választották. 2012 januárjában az Év Embere díjazottjai közé választották, és elnyerte az Év Művésze 2011 díjat. 2009. február 1-jén a Vígszínház igazgatójának nevezték ki. Igazgatóként fontos számára, hogy a társulattal közösen, a hagyományokat megőrizve, új energiákkal szülessen újra a színház, mely erőteljes, friss, mai hangon tud szólni közönségéhez.

This is a story of a man who wants to grasp and hold his beloved one by him and a woman who insists on that her love can't be grasped; 'she' only can deliver hers. It has written Comedy, Romance etc... but, this movie doesn't include anything funny, I believe. After I see the movie, I thought that love springs through a one's heart and it has its own spirit. It doesn't have to have any company. The matter is if it coincides its mate; that's it.

Paths of Death and Angels

Reviewers found this somewhat surreal film so visually stunning as to be worth watching even when it was not clear to them what was going on. In the story, Jozef Schrevek is a man with unusual powers which he wishes to pass on to his son before his death, which is coming soon. Unfortunately, his son is much more interested in boozing and womanizing and being a well-known habitué of nightclubs, than in taking his father seriously and receiving his powers and the responsibilities which come along with them. The tension between the two escalates when a young woman enters their lives.

The Right Man for a Delicate Mission
Title: The Right Man for a Delicate Mission
Character: ápolónő
Released: March 18, 1985
Type: Movie
In this somewhat uneven political satire, good revolutionaries have overthrown a totalitarian state riddled with corruption on all levels when a truly naive bureaucrat (Boguslaw Linda) is placed on a jury that will judge the results of a history competition. Once on the jury, the young bureaucrat starts looking into the past himself and gets embroiled in a labyrinth. The past may well be unclear because recent leaders have certain facts that need to be kept buried. Filmmaker Janos Kovacsi borrows characteristics from revolutions in the Eastern European block (1950s-1980s) to create this post-revolutionary society with an idealist commander (Ferenc Zenthe) meant to lead them. A clue as to what happens next lies in the opening scene -- the funeral of the commander who has given his life for his cause. Ironically, Kovacsi undoubtedly faced censorship on this film. That would not only account for some uneven narration, but it adds a dimension of reality to the topic at hand.
