Awesome actors, awesome details.
But it's a disaster from lightning and grading point of view. I never saw something sooo bad in my life. After 30 mins I had headaches. So annoying to try to focus your eyes on a subject and to understand what is happening. Looks like this was the proof that romanian cinematography is dead.

Very good acting, but 100% is just for critics. Is a theater in black and white. The director is blocked in 1980 and I don't know how all these good actors accepted to play this rubbish. I gave up watching after 20 minutes.
I really liked the movie, despite the white and black colours (which seems logical but is a bit more tough to digest). Horatiu is really acting great and what i don't get is why they claim that the contribution of Dumitru Caramitru was exceptional when he only had 3 lines 🤐
The film shows very well the life in the country in Romania at the beginning of the establishment of the communist regime. The dialogues and atmosphere of the film can be best understood by those who know this type of cinema. Anyone who doesn't understand or gets bored is definitely a Marvel moviegoer. The film is a joy for the soul for those who are receptive and interested in authentic culture.
"Morometii" is a very good dramatization of Marin Preda's novel, depicting the life of a typical peasant family in rural Romania during the late 1940's.
The "film noir" image is not for everyone, but I find that it depicts perfectly the dark times the family was going through. It is also in line with the prequel "Morometii 1978" which was also shot in black&white for the same reason.
The actors are some of the best Romania has ever produced, acting is incredible and the storyline very very good. Highly recommended!
