00:00:08: There are a few points.
00:00:11: I really want to mention it
00:00:37: Just don't need money to make movies
00:00:41 : I got home, all weekend | I was thinking
00:00:45: Thinking about everything
00:00:49: Thinking about some facts
00:00:53: Friends, actors, film, whatever
00: 00:57: Maybe everyone will participate|this kind of underground movie
00:01:02: It's not about being
creative 00:01:06: It's about money
00:01:09: Movies without money 00:01:12
: So I wrote 6 | Stories on the outskirts of Bucharest 00:01:15
: 6 stories about love
00:01:17: involved
00:01:19: each story focuses on a different love
00:01: 22: Concern for professionals
00:01:27: It is difficult to raise money in Romania, | as a Romanian filmmaker
00:01:29: I don't know how to speak English
00:01:31: I have a plan. ..
00:01:34: The next thing I want to shoot is a couple's love
00:01:41: Wait 00:01:43
: This is a starting point
00:01:45: Another starting point, is.. . 00:01:51:
In 2001...2000
00:01:53: I had... not a disease. It was a syndrome
00:01:57: Called Syndrome
00:01:59: Actually, Lazaruscu's neighbor had
it 00:02:03: I vomited blood and lost two liters of blood 00:02:08:
In the hospital in 2000 Time
00:02:13: It was a very strange experience
00:02:18: After this experience, I spent a week
00:02:23: I thought about it seriously
00:02:25: Actually, It's not serious
00:02:27: It's a bleeding problem, it's not too serious
00:02:33: Later it became liver insufficiency
00:02:38: So I got this disease during that time
00:02: 42: Everyone said "liver insufficiency"
00:02:45: Not very serious
00:02:47: But I thought it was cancer 00:02:50
: Very serious disease
00:02:54: At that time Worth the 2001 Cannes Film Festival
00:02:59: My first film was selected for Cannes | "Director's Fortnight" ("Things and Money")
00:03:06: I... how do I say it. I'm at the festival Happy
00:03:09: But not particularly happy
00:03:12: Because I keep thinking about
cancer 00:03:22: There are many French delicacies 00:03:33: Garlic prawns, oysters... everything 00:03:36: But I can't eat these things 00:03:38: Always asked eat beef
00:03:45: No fat, and boiled vegetables 00:03:50 :
It's a nightmare. I promise you Years...at least|a year and a half of depression 00:04:11: I keep thinking about cancer, heart disease 00:04:17: Nervous system disease, diabetes 00:04:19: I'm stuck in these Nervous system disease 00:04:23: Bowel obstruction, you know. Very serious disease 00:04:27: Because I have muscle cramps 00:04:33: I surf the web 00:04:36: It doesn't count Nightmare 00:04:39: I finally decided because my wife insisted 00:04:42: I went to the doctor 00:04:46: I went to see a female doctor for 8 months 00:04:54: I Gradually recovered 00:04:58: But all the information I got 00:05:05: From this experience 00:05:08: From the Internet and medical books 00:05:14: I used this film 00:05:17 : This is the second starting point 00:05:19: The third starting point is 00:05:25: This case... this | Bucharest Stories 00:05:33: It's the 90s... 00:05:37: There is a patient, the ambulance came to take the patient away 00:05:42: After going through 6 hospitals, they were all rejected 00:05:47: The nurse in the ambulance decided to put him on the street
00:05:52: He died on the street
00:06:00: I don't know the details of the story very well
00:06:06: But the fact that interests
me 00:06:14: I still think that Yes | Accident
00:06:20: But anyway...
00:06:24: It's still
repulsive 00:06:36: I mean, that nurse is | the only one thought guilty
00:06 :41: She's in jail now
00:06:44: I don't think it's that easy 00:06:47
: 6 hospitals refuse to accept
them 00:06:55: I'm thinking about them...
00:07:03: I'm in Confirmed in medical books...
00:07:14: I'm thinking...
00:07:19: Even myself...
00:07:25: You've read this kind of case
00:07:30 : Saw the reports, news, TV, etc.
00:07:39: I can't help but want to make a movie
00:07:44: To me, it's a good story
00:07:50: Not from a moral point of view
00 :07:54: but from a theatrical perspective
00:08:00: because then you can skip that kind of 3-act drama
00:08:06: or patterns like two plot
points 00:08:09: keep repeating the same The story
00:08:15: Lazaruscu kept at home waiting for the ambulance
00:08:20: Then in every hospital, | the story almost kept repeating
00:08:25: Until the end
00:08:27: Do you agree that this film is a black comedy?
00:08:32: I like the idea
00:08:35: It wasn't fun during
filming 00:08:41: But some moments were fun
00:08:46: But it wasn't...how to say What
00:08:52: Not a comedy
00:08:53: You can say it's dark humor
00:08:55: In Cluj, Romania| I was surprised when it was released
00:08:59: It was a participation| Transylvania Film Festival
00:09:04: The audience really...
00:09:10: Really laughed. And kept laughing
00:09:15: That was difficult
00:09:16 :Because...
00:09:18: It's Romanian special | The language accent makes you laugh
00:09:25: Not that kind, think...
00:09:33: I don't know
00:09:35: You don't laugh like you watch "Monty Python"| stuff
00:09:42: Nor like a comedy
by Louis De Fines 00:09:47: Not like a comedy like Lauren and Hardy
00:09:51 : Luther Scripp, and my | friend Ras Van Raderescu together
00:09:58: We talked a lot...
00:10:08: The relationship that exists between doctor and patient
00 :10:15: And the way we behave
00:10:20: Not like doctors or patients
00:10:22: I don't know...
00:10:27: It's our tendency to control others
00:10:32: I'm interested in...
00:10:38: I'm thinking about what movies mean to me
00:10:42: Because I like painting
00:10:45: I have studied painting
00:10:50: I like painting
00:10:52: I like making all decisions
00:10:58: Movies are different
00:11:01: I have this in my head all the time, thinking about it all the time
00:11: 04: Why do you want to make movies or
something
like
that ...movie
00:11:27: I thought about the definition
00:11:30: Actually, I don't define it now
00:11:34: But I think the movie is a manifesto
00:11:39: Let Luc Godard famously said
00:11:46: Movies are 24 frames per second of truth
00:11:56: Then Fassbender says
00:12:00: Movies are 25 frames per second of lies and so on
00:12 :08: I've considered both of these
00:12:10: Because I'm interested in |understanding what is truth and what is lie
00:12:18: I mean things related to my life and |existence
00:12:24: But I think it doesn't matter that movies and truth |
or lies 12:39: Declarations are very subjective
00:12:47: No matter what you do, it's subjective
00:12:49: It's your point of view
00:12:51: Your understanding and opinion on something
00:13:07: I want to go The world...
00:13:11: The movie is a huge building
00:13:18: There are many rooms
00:13:21: Everyone has many windows
00:13:26: You watch and listen through your windows
00:13:33: As a filmmaker, you're definitely interested in passing on
00:13:39: All the details you see
00:13:47: Your own way of seeing reality
00:13:53: The problem is not... 00:13:58
: Not about truth or lies
00:14:01: It's manifesto
00:14:03: The world I see is like this
00:14:06: Maybe later you analyze it
00:14: 12: Maybe eventually you'll find out...
00:14:18: A lot of your own truths
00:14:24: I don't know
00:14:27: How did you create all your | character fullness?
00:14:32: There will always be a script
00:14:36: If the problem is live
performance 00:14:41: There is no such thing
00:14:43: The actor will give some suggestions
00:14:47: 00:14:56 on character lines
: I usually take advice from these actors
00:15:01: We usually write 2 or 3 scripts for different directors | me and Rasfan
00:15:08: they tell us | too many details in the script
00:15:13: but I don't actually think so
00:15:16: I'm interested in all the details
00:15:20: we write the script 00:15:25
: It's funny
00:15:27: I think the movie is about a lot of things 00:15:31: About lack of communication, | 00
about wrong communication and misunderstanding
:15:37: It's funny
00:15:38: Because I finish the script | and show it to the actors and everyone 00:15:46
: The actors think it's funny
00:15:48: Everyone comes up with their roles ...
00:15:54: They are all different characters.
00:15:58: Everyone has different understandings of what we wrote.
00:16:03: It is very difficult
. 00:16:04: We have done a lot of work.
00 :16:07: We rehearse for 3 weeks before
shooting 00:16:12: Before every shoot, we design... organize
00:16:24: Camera position
00:16:27: All characters in and out ...
00:16:29: It's hard work
00:16:33: But I accept the suggestion
00:16:35: If the suggestion is...
00:16:41: Not helpful for the character, | but Add some personal stuff
00:16:49: You can imagine... When writing the script
00:16:53: You can imagine the picture of the movie 00:16:55: Your
mind can do whatever you want,|almost anything think
00:16:59: But you can't, how do you say...
00:17:08: To achieve the real effect
00:17:12: If you don't pay attention
00:17:20: Actor
00:17:23: In order to Get their own feelings
00:17:33: They gotta...that's all I care about...
00:17:39:They're doing the job,|they gotta be themselves
00:17:46:They're not Doctor, but they | have to do their best now
00:17:57: It's a lot to do with acting 00:18:08: What
we try to figure out is...
00:18:11: It's hard to convince them to play themselves
00 :18:15: Sounds a little
weird 00:18:19: I want them... 00:18:23: The roles I choose
for the movie
00:18:25: I choose them
00:18:29: Yes From what I imagine these characters are
00:18:36: I want the doctors to look like them
00:18:43: I choose the actors like this
00:18:46: After that, we're going to do a lot | work to keep them True Colors
00:18:55: not creating characters
00:18:59: expressing their own | feelings, being themselves
00:19:06: they are not doctors, but now | imagine you are a doctor
00:19:10 : But it 's you, not the character.|It
's
you
weird
00:19:31: But I'm really not interested in
acting 00:19:36: I just want to get the right note
00:19:44: The same goes for this black comedy
00:19:49: Can be understood as a black comedy
00:19:52: I'm not interested in comedy 00:19:56: I'm interested in
the absurdity of the situation
00:20:01: It's always funny
00:20:13: You can't be with you The|Daily
Distancing 00:20:21: The events you're involved in will always affect you
00:20:29: It's hard for you to clearly judge you|what's going on around you
00:20:37: It's hard
00:20: 39: But in the movie, it's easier to keep this distance |
00:20:43: Because you're watching the movie, | not in the movie
00:20:46: Even if you see yourself as a character
00:20 :49: I think it's one of the most important functions of the
movie 00:20:53: I think things have to be functional
00:20:57: Like a lot of power stations
00:21:00: Functional, functional
00:21:02: They have to function
00:21:03: Movies have to function
00:21:10: Actually, what I ended up thinking about was
00:21:15: The disappearance of Anonymous, the disappearing movie
00:21 :30: Of course, we all have lines when we perform,|has a name
00:21:34: This anonymous also has a|great and important renaissance name
00:21:39: Like Dante. It's about getting from|hell a trip to heaven or something
00:21:47: This is what I want in the end
00:21:52: Because I'm scared
00:21:59: Talk about Christianity in
this movie 00:22:03: Yes, in the Bible,| There is such a chapter in the Gospel of St. John
00:22:10: I think about this a lot
00:22:13: Jesus was not there when he died
00:22:16: When he came, he was already dead
00:22 :18: Lazarus| (the person who was rescued by Jesus in the Bible)
00:22:21: He resurrected him and so on
00:22:23: We know the story of his resurrection
00:22:25: But we I don't know how he died
00:22:28: "The Death of Lazaruscu"|(The medical system kills people)|It's a plan
00:22:34: Death is different
00:22:35: But we all die differently
00:22:40: Of course someone notices
00:22:52: It's the fear of death and separation | fear haunts me
all the time 00:23:06: A very ordinary fact of salvation 00:23:22 : The fact that you 're
dying alone, unaccompanied by others Not like the fear of spiders 00:23:48: Not the same 00:23:50: I'm afraid of flying 00:23:52: I came to London by plane 00:23:58: It 's a process. .. 00:24:10: It got me thinking...
00:24:23: Movies use extreme techniques
00:24:29: I don't know and have never seen
them 00:24:32: I thought I would never be able to make movies
00:24:38: Never Making light-hearted movies, | Entertainment movies
00:24:45: A journalist in Romania did a comparison
00:24:54: This kind of movie. They mentioned the Daidan brothers
00:25:02: They said mine and Daidan 00:25:06
: It's actually different
00:25:08: The unhappiness in their movie is obvious
00:25:12: But it's not here
00:25:14: I talked to a friend about ...
00:25:20: The authenticity of the movie, the way of expression, the style, the actor's performance
00:25:27: Very real, very close to real life
00:25:32: Actually we use symbols to interpret 00:25:37 : We
also reach this | symbolism level The person who took him to the doctor 00:25:55: The last doctor is Angel| (pronounced "Angel") 00:25:58: I'm joking it's a happy ending 00:26:02: Actually I Very interested in these symbols 00:26:09: There are a lot of symbols 00:26:11: It's hard to decode. 00:26:16: But there are a lot of symbols that tell | you can happen this way or that 00:26:22 : I thought about these symbols. Because | I'm also interested in fringe science
00:26:33: like astrology 00:26:35 : I
played it. But also scared Precursor of Saluscu's death 00:26:57 : For example, at the beginning of the movie, he talks to his sister . 00:27:02: There is a washing machine on the left . The door 00:27:16: Visually, it's also a machine 00:27:22: His neighbor came with an electric drill 00:27:24: A doctor behind said | I want to open his skull and drill his head 00:27: 28: There are many others like this, | put here 00:27:33: left, right, performance, | dialogue.. everything 00:27:43: performance of these 00:27:50: imagine in a perfect world, |He was healed by God 00:27:58 : I really want to believe that there is a God 09: So you don't have to think about this and that when you're acting| 00:28:13: It has nothing to do with that 00:28:15: But you know it's funny 00:28:22: I love to think there is | God created perfection The world 00:28:26: But at the same time, I read physics,|mathematics books don't mind 00:28:40: Those perfect sciences,| I also feel comfortable 00:28:44: When I'm reading about the stars documentary
00:28:48: For example, the solar system, planets,
etc. 00:28:58: Look at these Saturn, how Mercury works 00:29:04
: Tissue, how does human tissue work
Comfortable feeling
00:29:18: Just like Christian preaching
00:29:23: What is your own belief?
00:29:29: To me, the | expression of these perfect creatures is an image conveyed by rational science 00:29:43
: Not theology or sermons 00:29:58 : Because it looks perfect and beautiful Relevance 00:30:13: Attraction, force and chemistry these 00:30:17: I just read about neurology 00:30:24: found that almost all emotions are related to | brain chemistry 00:30:35: Watching these at the same time, I also | I don't feel any discomfort 00:30:44: A lot of things, we succeeded | I made up a lot of things 00:30:53: People talk about love. 00:30:55: About Very important, very strong, | a very cultural concept 00:31:04: easily 00:31:05: I love you 00:31:07: what does that mean? 00:31:09: you want my money, | body, mom, friends 00:31:14: what's behind the feeling of love
00:31:20: So I was happy when Alexander | Payne said the following
00:31:27: Cannes candidates he watched a lot, | a lot of very different topics
00:31:34: But no A movie about love
00:31:36: I'm happy, I take it as a compliment
00:31:38: Because that's exactly the reaction I want to have
00:31:45: People come out of the theater thinking :|Maybe it 's true 00:31:52 :
maybe no love, no interest 15: Maybe you will triumphantly realize | Correct Christianity 00:32:18: I think movies are asking questions, | not giving answers 00:32:24: It becomes important... 00:32:29 : but also sorry 00:32:31: life is too short 00:32:37: we live in a competitive mode 00:32:45: it annoys me 00:32:47: in Romania you There will be a deep impression 00:32:52: People love to watch football,|both men, women and children 00 :32:57:So they always|think things in terms of competition00 :33:02:This is better than that00 :33:05: It's tiring 00:33:07: It's not real 00:33:10: But we don't have a better | pattern to replace this 00:33:20: It's devastating 00 :33:24: Yes, we are forced to live in this competitive mode
00:33:32: Ian Feskutenu in | Is Romania a famous actor?
00:33:38: No
00:33:41: Actors know him. Film experts know him
00:33:53: But ordinary audiences don't know him
00:33:56: He's in Transylvania | Special Legomoulay city work
00:34:06: it's half Hungary, | half Romanian
00:34:13: he's famous in Tragumoulay, | but not in Bucharest
00:34:20: we In Bucharest | Not a lot of communication
00:34:26: Sorry
00:34:29: But he's funny
00:34:34: Because the characters originally written in the script | Not from Transylvania
00:34:44 :Here I have a problem,|You may not notice 00: 34
:49:Because you don't speak Romanian People in Bucharest| having a Transylvanian accent is weird 00:35:08: Not for people living in Bucharest|, like me 00:35:15: So I changed the script 00 :35:22: Designed that his native place was Transylvania 00:35:28: Married a Hungarian woman or something like that 00:35:35: After finishing the script, I actually wanted to suggest 00:35:42: I think his accent| is too complicated to incorporate into the movie 00:35:48: Is it wrong? 00:35:52: I was wrong 00:35:54: Because it's not about his accent, | it's about the script
00:35:57
: After
I auditioned the other actors,|decided to choose him Time|There are 39 nights
00:36:14: He turns 68 on November 19th
00:36:23: He has the same birthday as his character?
00:36:27: Yes, we changed it
00:36:28: Because starting Lazaruscu this | Character birthday is November 22
00:36:37: Because I want to choose a Scorpio and | Sagittarius Connecting Days
00:36:42: I like Scorpio
00:36:46: Because I have a special relationship with that | constellation
00:36:53: I found out that he is a Scorpio, | I changed the script to November 19
00:36:58: In the movie, he called his sister's number | the movie is his phone number 00:37:02 :
There are many similar things 09: In the hospital, the couple who are celebrating their silver wedding 00:37:22: It's my parents 00:37:24: And 00:37:25: When the movie starts, he asks the neighbor for medicine 00:37:35: Two girls go upstairs 00:37:43: A woman and little girl go downstairs 00:37:47: That's my wife and daughter 00:37:52: I'm not imitating (John) Cassavetes00 :37:57: Because he is my favorite director 00:37:59: This is a tribute, I want to hide it
00:38:12: With him, it's difficult. Because...
00:38:17: It's not just him, it's difficult with all the actors
00:38:24: Because it's difficult...
00:38:26: We make 8 movies a year, | they usually work in theaters
00:38:33: so it's hard for us
00:38:39: step forward and think differently
00:38:42: don't think about theater, audience
00:38:44: It's movies and...
00:38:51: So it's not easy
00:38:54: But Luminita is easy
00:38:58: She plays the nurse in the ambulance
00:39:04: With her, it's easy
00:39:06: She's very...
00:39:10: I don't know
00:39:11: She fits the role
00:39:20: And She, it was easy 00:39:22
: I got a lot of help from her and
everyone
00:39:41
