Osânda

it is his film. great performance and force of a character who it has script as root. many nuances. few extraordinaries scenes. and a cross. as axis of a redemption without limits. or sense. a delicate love story. and an injured. prejudices of a community. and a murder as mirror for everybody. short - must see it ! not for its beauty - it is really touching. not for wise measure - it is a truth. not for cast - it is remarkable. but for Amza Pellea as sign of passing silhouette. and for last scene. or, only for ball of questions front with a film about sin and pain and hope and dark gestures. must see it ! as isle of memory. because it remains a little more than an adaptation.

Sergiu Nicolaescu was liked by Nicolae Ceausescu. That was his only outward quality. Bad scripting. Ugly costumes. Bad acting. Bad direction. Clumsy editing. But these were only a vehicle to waste the state money. And the only promise they had to make was to serve and enforce the ultra nationalistic state directives.

The state propaganda stated the peasant is the source of the Aryans of the Eastern Europe. So they are well manicured even when working in the dirt. They also are dressed by the same factory that has made the costumes for the national standard of costumes. There is no road, yet they seem to be well connected.

And the acting... don't start me about it. The same old party members. They are confirmed to be politically right and they are well connected so who cares about acting?

A novel by Victor Ion Popa. The mark of Sergiu Nicolaescu. Amza Pellea in the lead role. Ioana Pavelescu giving a beautiful performance. A parable about life and pain and love and choices. Portrait of after world and the deep traces of past.And few beautiful scenes. It is a film of its period and this could be the fair start point to define it. So, "Osanda".
