Lack of Authenticity
29 May 2010 | by (Romania) – See all my reviews

One thing that I think is obvious during the entire length of the movie is the effort to create poetic effects, in the sense that ordinary life is distorted to convey some deeper meaning. The main character, Mitu, develops his own philosophy from working with pigs, the newlyweds take a ride on a fair wheel and Mitu shoots his gun, the car where the tense dialogue between father and son takes place almost crashes, Mitu drives a tank through a grill shack... The downward spiral of Mitu's life, the harsh life, misery, poor education, immorality, violence, madness, these are the driving forces of the story. Curiosity is not something the viewer is likely to experience watching the movie. The dominant emotional state that the images render is depression.
