Some films are able to dazzle you without the exhaust of special effects, enormous Hollywood stars and nudity. They manage to accelerate under your skin and pick up inside you. They leave an indeliable designate on you. Cristian Mungiu’s “4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days (4 luni, 3 saptamani si 2 zile) ” is such a film. And easily one of the best films of 2007!

Whatever the reason, currently Romanian is a hot property. People and critics are honest buzzing with excitement about what is going on in Romanian cinema. And even though I’m not Romanian (I’m Hungarian) I’m ravishing furious about it too.
In 2006 there was the release of “The Death of Mr. Lazarescu”, besides “4 luni, 3 saptamani si 2 zile”, also released in 2007 was “12:08 East of Bucharest”. These three films seem to be portion of a original wave in Romanian film. Each takes on recent day society while questioning the past. All three are confrontational.

“4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days” takes station during a 24 hour period in which a young girl, Gabita Dragut (Laura Vasiliu) seeks an abortion in Ceausescu’s Romania. At the time such acts were against the law. She needs the assist of her roommate, Otilia (Anamaria Marinca) to sort out the details and supply some relieve, since the father of the child is not only never seen but never spoken of either.
The two girls pick up in contact with Bebe (Vlad Ivanou) through a mutual friend. Bebe is the only person who will build an abortion after the 4th month, this is how the film gets its title. That is how long Gabita has been pregnant. Bebe though does not seem like a trust marvelous kind of guy. He has something up his sleeve. But he will not be the waste of their problems.
The film sets itself up as a thriller and acquire it or not, it is suspenseful. There are no flow sequences, no cops and robbers, objective the suspense that the two girls will fetch found out and risk prison and worst yet may have physical distress done to them.
Though the characters never screech directly about politics, Mungiu and his cinematographer, Oleg Mutu (who also shot “The Death of Mr. Lazarescu) very in subtle ways sing the viewer about life under Ceausescu. We can sense the paranoia of the times and the government control. ID’s are contantly asked for and checked. Streets are empty. Everyone buys supplies from the gloomy market. Even if you are not familiar we the history of Romanian we can survey or at least pick up a sense of what life was like under the times.
The film is fully conceived and realized by Mungiu who has directed only one other feature film entitled “Occident”. Every character is believeable as is their location. I never questioned whether or not what was on-screen could or could not happen. It is well-liked as truth. But the standout performances are given by the girls. Neither has grand experience. Marinca has a brief role in Francis Ford Coppola’s “Youth Without Youth”, also region in Romania. And Vasiliu has only acted in one other film, Nicolae Margineau’s masterpiece “Bless You, Prison”. With such microscopic acting experience how on Earth did these girl pull off these roles? They are the heart and soul of the film and deserve every bit of acclaim they come by for this movie and more.
And the film has been getting acclaim. It was the winner of the Palm d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival. It won a prize at the Chicago Film Critics Award and was nominated for a Golden Globe. Sadly though, it has received no Oscar nominations, showing the Academy’s prejudice towards countries on the eastern side of the Berlin Wall.
Mingiu says the film is only the first section of a series he plans on making ironically entitled “Tales From the Golden Age”. I notice forward to seeing all of them.
Bottom-line: One of 2007′s best films. An intense film that becomes all the more ghastly when you assume “this feels legal”. Two strong performances by the young girls in the film are highlights.
I believe there are some facts that people not familiar with Romanian history need to know in order to better understand the movie. Since the Ceausescu’s goal was to increase the population, not only the abortion was illegal but the contraception was also non-existent. Young people were also not educated in family planning at all. Occasionally one could consume contraceptive pills from dubious sources on the sad market, but overall, besides using the calendar map (highly unreliable for many women), the abortion was the immediate mean to avoid an unplanned pregnancy.
The movie is satisfactory and there is no need for spoilers however, since people will react accordingly depending on their stance toward abortion, I assume it is significant to mention that abortion was not illegal on good grounds. It was a spot policy to increase the population which made contraception and family planning education also illegal or at least non-existent.
Ironically, statistics showed that the population did not increase nowhere come terminate to what was expected.
