  • Comment removed

  • @zarathusa888 Of course I don't mind. I see what you mean with your comment. Sorry,I tend to be very patriotic sometimes...but you see, I cannot help to be very proud of Eliade's Romanian origin.

  • this movie has to be a masterpiece !

  • @nutzw1 in the nicest way possible, this movie was a masterpiece of shit

  • @donkeyass5042 Please explain.

  • @nutzw1 the movie just went nowhere, the storyline just seemed to be sporadic with no central idea. i enjoy watching movies that are a bit twisted or take a little time to understand but this was just all over the place.

  • @donkeyass5042 I see...

  • Why it had limited realease?? is a good movie,underrated

  • @folladordeprostis because it's independent! it's always like this! the greatest films are the ones which have limited release -.-

  • Aaaaaaagh! People! Netflix™ this gem. It's awesome! Thank you, Sony, for uploading this trailer! Two hours well spent ~ (•8-D

  • thE FILM WAs made in Romania...and the actriss it's Romanian...good job !

  • @kondurperusix it's not similar.

  • curious case of benjamin button here,lol, but with the lie to me guy, so weird ;)) thanx for posting ;)))

  • Only of course this predates Benjamin Button by two years ... and doesn't have anywhere near as big a budget lol

  • I've thought about it....

    this films looks awesome and it only won 1 award....

    and Benjamin Button is OK but definitely got some inspiration from this film

  • or the other way ´round.. do u know which one came out first.

    i´d like to know..

  • That still was a rhetorical question...calm down.

    By the way, you are not coool, you've just proved to be a major loser.

  • Well, that was a rhetorical question.

    You folks have internet access? Wow, you're soooo cool, Brewster...

  • Please, someone knows the name of the movie, when Tim Roth yells "This is my time right here, right know""

  • this Movie is included so many chinese philosophy like tao or metempsychosis!!!

    It may not be too familar for many people unless you've heard these concept before. However, this is a good movie indeed!!!

  • This is one of the most OUTSTANDING big production films made since the WATCHMEN, and yet it got limited release in North America & Australasia. This film should've received several Oscars. Yet it is relegated to special interest, cult-film status amongst officianados. Hollywood are morons! This was Coppola's best since the first two Godfathers. And he did a fairly faithful rendition of Eliade's masterful novel.

    See it!

  • @Hurakhsh you're my hero.

  • Is it tue this never gota a wide release in the US ?

    Is it supposed to be such an uncommercial dreck no majors picked up ? Or there is just no more room in North American theatres for almost anything that's not a remake of a horror film nor is it helmed by M. Bay?

  • It had limited release,it was like an indepent film with famous actors,and it was no only un-popular in the usa,this movie just came out in some countries this year! ,sad but most people prefer to watch dumb movies like twilight,people are fucked up

  • @kondurperusix do you know if it came out in Canada? It looks like a great movie! Plus, I love all of Tim Roth's work!!!

  • Is already in dvd,this movie is from 2007,is a little similar to the curious case of benjamin button

  • @kondurperusix agree 100 % !

  • @kondurperusix This movie is amazing.

  • @kondurperusix Sorry ... but this film WAS bad. Nothing to do with "Idiocracy"

  • The novel is also called ,,Youth without youth" and is written by the Romanian historian of religion, fiction writer, philosopher, and professor Mircea Eliade.He is one of the greatest Romanian and his fiction writings surely worth reading!

  • @jerichogirl30 i would alow myself to do a litle corection..i hope you dont mind..i have read prety much everything eliade ever wrote and i dont think im wrong when saying that he is one of the greatest man that ever lived on the face of the earth...he created the history of religions out of a desire to make the knoledge to all human kind

  • Bruno Ganz owns. Remember Der Untergang? He potrayed Hitler.

  • wow

  • How have I NEVER heard of this?!?

  • becose this movie is special

  • Because you are an ignorant peasant

    (just kidding, thats wat my history teacher said)

  • @20840I your history teacher sounds nice.

  • It was like an independent film with famous actors,is weird,but not only in the usa people did not heard about this movie,is just came to theaters this year in some countries~!

  • This film is a modern classic, such great style. Great to see some new Coppola. Is it just me or did most of the country miss this film? The concept is similar to a 'Benjamin Button' transmogrification thing, but predates it by almost 2 years...

  • I think it had a limited realease because is not a hollywood movie,I mean is like an independent film with famous actors like matt damon and tim roth,I just read a review from this movie and the plot sounds similar to benjamin button

  • agreed 100%

    The movie is between the reality and the dream. The last message "the king is king in reality and a butterfly in his dream" describes whole movie.

    This movie is a masterpiece

  • The Nove after wich the movie was made is a Masterpiece.

  • Novel* Sory about that

  • thanx, i was wondering anyway to read the book, because the movie haunted me for a long time

  • Now that was a quick reply :D

  • This movie looks epic

  • apreciez ca ai scris ma-ta corect, in rest totul e incorect

  • what ur saying is stupid lol

  • What i meant to say was that she saw them surrounding him like crazy, loving fans (like paparazzi, only Eastern European). the wanted to shake his hand so much they almost ran over him. hence "attacked by...fans." secondly, i never said Eliade's work was bad. that's like criticizing someone that disliked LOVE IN THE TIME OF CHOLERA because the great book was written by Marquez.

  • hm...ok :)

  • I was really looking forward to this because my grandmother saw Coppola getting attacked by movie fans when she lived in Romania. It was really disappointing, despite the fact it contains amazing cinematography, its screenplay is laughable.

  • his name is tim roth and he´s a very good actor, check him out in reservior dogs

  • @Sergio0Oo and four rooms, pulp fiction...

  • There are some shots in Malta too, it's not all Romania ;-)

  • the 'Malta shots' were unfortunately filmed in Bulgaria and the 'India shots' were filmed in Romania. This is a low-budged movie so would be to costly from them to go in Malta, India ans Swissland..:(

  • the interesting thing is this was filmed in bucharest romania

    and quite a few of the actors are romanians , at least everything else turns to rumble , arts are still doing great in romania( from the creativity point of view )

  • Cuando se estrena en Argentina?

  • I assume the novella on which the movie is based upon is "Les trois graces". read the work, and must see the film. nice story though

  • Aww this looks brilliant! XD

  • What`s the name of the guy from the minute 1:27?

  • yes it is.....

  • is that matt damon I see in the trailer wanting to hide his identity?

  • I see the movie. It is great !!!! Coppola is one of the greatest ever. By the way, I'm from Romania. This country and her history is great too. The gypsi is not our history.

  • Watched this film to my chagrin. Someone on imdb summed it up well - "Muddleheaded, self-indulgent and not much else" - Compared to the likes of Mulholland Drive and The Fountain this pales in the magnitude of bizarreness. Those who revel in self-indulgent, fashionably-arcane films like these I cannot say much. For the rest as bad as the editing is the musical score stellarly sucks.

    Osvaldo Golijov has no eye for the moving image.

    A sprinkling of Sanskrit lines doesnt resuscitate a film!

  • Disagreed with a passion. This movie was genius, and has scaled to the top of my favorite films.

  • l-am vazut astazi.... e in topul meu deja :x

  • ca de obicei... romania

  • a iesit filmul sau inca nu?

  • and it's inspired by Eliade's book tinerete fara tinerete
