Runtime

Synopsis

Film montage, commemorating the 50th anniversary of Romanian comedy, using fragments from Romanian films from 1927-1977. The connecting sequences - the conversations of cinephile travelers on their way to the film studios in Buftea - account for about 40% of the total length of the film. We are grateful to the filmmakers for the reunions with great actors who have passed away or great living actors. We are very grateful to them for their kind and benevolent effort to entertain us in every way and in every way; the comedy way, the musical way, the music-hall way, all ways, because, if you look closely, an excellent comic moment comes from a detective movie.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 18

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
