Review of Tales from the Golden Age (2009) by Steven L — 16 Oct 2012
Five stories. 2.5 hours. It goes quickly. The Party is in charge but the people are resilient. Most of the time. There are many covert operations, many mishaps, and nearly as many poignant moments. How does one survive under a communist regime where food and electricity are not certain? This film provides different glimpses into urban legends from Romania that try to answer the question.
They make you laugh at the absurdity of it all; and then they make you think about why it seems funny. Very worthy of a viewing.
