Visul unei nopti de iarna

Sadly, this film hasn't been released with subtitles, so I had to watch it (on Youtube) as it is, not understanding a word. Perhaps that's why the film created a dream-like atmosphere and held me captive from the beginning to the end. It's very well done, beautifully shot and scored. Ana Colda is a beautiful and talented leading lady and there's even a swinging hot musical number, performed by Elisabeta Lazar and a small swing band. As far as I know, the production of this film commenced already during the II World War, when Romania was still an Axis power, and finished, when Romania had emerged from the war on the winning side. It's an elegant Hollywood-style bitter-sweet comedy of manners, the likes of which were no longer produced in Romania as the Communist regime came to power two years later. I wish Romanian film authorities would restore and release this wonderful film with English subtitles!

A young girl harbors a secret crush (sincere and pure feelings) on a famous writer. She read his every book, so when she hears of the opportunity of delivering a gift to his house she does everything in her power to become the tansporter (and succeeds).

Manea is a handsome man, not only a successful writer , women of the elite of Bucharest's society swarm around him all the time.He has just broken up with one of them... It's New Year's Eve,he invites her to spend some time with him...a dream built on snowflakes and champagne. In her naivety and pureness , Dorulet-as Manea caresses her,touches the unseen strings of his heart and soul , which he taught to be long dead,she awoke adolescence (like) emotions in the sleeping lion. I loved this movie and I would like to see it at least one more time.
