    metamorphose
    story of metamorphose of a boyar .a young talented actor. a page of Romanian history. hajduks, specialty of Dinu Cocea. and an impressive cast. all - part of a chain. or only a battle. for the Communist regime, national past was root for propaganda. for public - good occasion for entertainment. for directors - a delicate challenge. Incu Jianu is not an exception. but one of its virtues is to be more than fragment of a period. the secret - a story in which romantic adventures, love story, courage, charm, wise of hero are almost fresh grace science of measure of director. Adrian Pintea is perfect in his role ( role very far by real image of Iancu ) and the story is credible. humor , tension and basis for childhood dreams. Manichean colors and right music. result - a good job. and seed for second part. that is all. a window to idyllic past image. window to a kind of art for a gray Romania.
