it has many sins of Sergiu Nicolaescu films. in same measure, its great vulnerability are the dialogues. artificial, theatrical, unconvincing. the good point - the atmosphere. and the nice choice for Dan Bittmann in the role of young Moruzi. sure, it is a homage of director to himself. it is obvious this fact but not so bad. because, after the end, important is the voice from the past. the nostalgia and the lost beauty, the flavor of pink novels and the remember of Ecclesiastes. film about a life. about love, friendship, greed and selfishness. about lost of the beauties of the youth. and about memories. nothing original but enough for a not so boring trip.
