MoMA | Lucian Pintilie's Films 03/01 -03/12

I'm excited to write that right now a number of films by the acclaimed Romanian film maker, Lucian Pintilie are playing at MoMA (Museum of Modern Art).  In the last few years there has been a surge of Romanian movies of international success, that are often shown here in theaters, and available to rent.  Not long ago, NYC hosted a Romanian film festival, at Lincoln Center, that made such movies available to the NY audience.  Lucian Pintilie's movies are sure to make a lasting impression so I strongly recommend them.  They are humorous, but dramatic at the same time, profound, historic, relevant for today.
