With absolute honesty, I must admit that I'M IN AWE!!!
So, a lot of "pretentious" Romanian spectators declared themselves "so bored" of this "slow flowing" and "mundane" movie, that they barely bore to see it once to the end - and an ARGENTINIAN one watched it, in fascination, for THREE TIMES! :huh:
Further, Juan, your comments suggest that you really got the movie's FEELING. How really interesting - and significant. It shows once again that "M.D.L." is a very special movie, able to touch only certain patterns of sensitivity. And, of course, it's incomparably better received all over the wide world, than at home, where the snobs and semidoctes are snubbing it all over.
I really hope you will be able to visit Romania. For you, the only problem would be the travel's cost, I suppose - fly all across half the globe! However, our country is really welcoming to all strangers, and offers unique touristic experiences. Also, now that we joined at last the European Union (I'm not by far a fan of it, but I must acknowledge is does have also certain merits), I hope we'll move faster to a normal level of civilisation, and when you finally land here, what you saw in "M.D.L." will be just a sad memory.
