the veil of melancholia
16 April 2024
In high school, Camil Petrescu was my favorit writer. Last week, I read, again, after 30 years , Patul lui Procust. Other perspectives . Next step- to see this adaptation, ignored more than two decades because , I supposed, the sexual aspects covered the beautiful story , like in many other Romanian films of period.

But it was a nice surprise. Not only for faithful adaptation , but , first, maybe, for acting. Maia Morgestern proposes fair , nuanced portrait of Madame T, Oleg Iankovski is inspired George Ladima, the rediscover of Silviu Stanculescu and Gheorghe Dinica is a precious gift and Tania Popa explores each trait , defined by novel, of Emilia Rachiteanu vulgarity.

A wise crafted adaptation, the veil of melancholia remaining, for time, in soul of viewer, like in case of book inspiring it.
