I encourage people to watch this movie
Story
in 1989 During the Romanian Revolution in Sibiu, there is a brutal attack on a police station that escalates into armed clashes between soldiers, police, protesters and secret police. References Rocky (1976). as much as it pissed me off. It is gripping and as the creators of the previous posters (mostly Romanian apparently) have written, it is a truly “immersive experience”. and deserves to be seen and approved of from an artistic point of view.
The Romanian Revolution of 1989 As my friends talked, I had a strange feeling
But unfortunately it is a very pathetic parody from someone who has spent decades researching the 1989 December events of the Romanian Revolution. My first, hopefully episodic post aims to show that despite what director Tudor Giurgiu has said in many interviews and what one of the reviewers, Eugen Istodor, has said… “Vocea securistilor nu s-a auscit 30 si ceva de ani si filmul le da cuvantul.” (Hotnews.ro, October 7, 2023)… The voice of the Securitate (the secret police of the communist era) has not been heard for over 30 years, and this film gives them a voice… there is nothing new here. this story… has been told many times and has long since achieved hegemony in Romanian media and everyday life. (Tudor Giurgiu spoke publicly at these performances, I was there alone, about the “false narratives (about the Army) that have dominated for over 30 years… and the supposedly dominant narrative of the ‘Glorious Army’.” …but let’s check his claims here)…below, for English speakers, two famous public debates that took place in December 1989 in Sibiu. events…from 1990 and 1997, 33 and 26 years respectively…to be continued…POET, ESSAYIST AND NPR COMMENTATOR ANDREI CODRESCU Sibiu 1990 July, seven months after December.
Could my friends have also?
Most of what they said rang true, but there seemed to be something missing, a plot element that no one wanted to mention. Here, in the midst of this sumptuous feast, I experienced the horror of another (almost new) discovery: everyone blamed the military for the shooting; none of them blamed the Securitate. And yet the official government position was that the Securitate, not the army, had massacred all the people who had undoubtedly been massacred in Bucharest, Sibiu, and elsewhere. I felt like two fingers behind my shoulder (the sign he had mentioned earlier signaled that someone had connections with the Securitate), but I had no one to do it with. In any case, their point of view, which has now been confirmed everywhere, is that many shots were fired, but few came to Ceausescu’s defense.
Everyone was in it
He had been betrayed by everyone. Even his son, who was in command of Sibiu, had not ordered anyone to shoot at the demonstrators. Ironically, the People’s Army had begun to fire on the crowds at the same time that the military had officially taken the “people’s side.” But the shooting was to cause more panic than the corpses. The Romanian TV revolution had only one side… “The Big Chill: My Romanian High School Reunion,” HARPER’S MAGAZINE, NOVEMBER 1990.
“But rumors become reality” – “Yes
and in 1997, American writer and Pulitzer Prize winner William McPherson wrote about what Valentin Ceausescu, the eldest son of communist dictator Nicolae Ceausescu, told him about the events of the Romanian Re1volu8. Here are some excerpts: Valentin and I had coffee in Vox Maris, the same big casino where the funeral had been held. It was morning, two days after the funeral (of Nicu Ceausescu), and the crowds had not yet arrived. – “Nicu was never prepared to be the heir. It was (only) a rumor.” He paused for a moment.
