Nemuritorii

You know, there are many songs, movies, stories, dance....reflecting a period in a human life. And sometimes those events in life are reclaimed in your memory. I'm not sure about that, but probably this movie is one of them.

BTW I live in Yokohama but I'm Romanian and that's something impossible to reject and I DON'T WANNA!

Sry for that ""pathetic"" introduction.

The movie is worth watching and analyze.

The real story, I don't know.

The legend I'm sure, I was reading that since I was a boy.

The actors are great!

The screenplay...almost.

The directing also great.

If you have nothing much better to do watch this story and enjoy.

Like many other movies made under the communist regime, the scenario for "Nemuritorii" reflects the ideology of the time. It emphasizes the serenity of the nationalistic ideas in the history of the romanians. Historically speaking, the film has no value whatsoever. To see a plan (romanian dream) in the actions of Mihai Viteazul is a fact of pure communist nationalistic ideology. The director, Sergiu Nicolaescu, is a master when it comes to combining the art of film making with the art of well dissimulated communist propaganda. On the other hand the film has some strong points: a good casting, very well chosen shooting sets and the best soundtrack for a romanian film made before 1989 signed by Phoenix, a legendary romanian band of the '70s. In conclusion, this film is above average compared to other romanian historical productions.

One of historical films under Comunism. Not bad, not good. Only decent. Interesting if you do not ignore the context of its birth. Adventures, historical events as scene, Sergiu Nicolaescu mark and good actors. Reasonable performances and heroism helping a noble dream in huge portions. Maybe, nothing else. But, in the context of the Romanian cinematography under the Comunism of eight decade, not so bad.
