“When I saw this film in a cinema in Bucharest I was like 5 or 6. The film was very funny back then, but recently, when I accidentally took a glimpse at it on TV, it seemed obsolete. The humor is not entirely expired, as the musical moments are ridiculously funny and some of the old gags still u0026quot;stealu0026quot; a bunch of laughs. In fact, the sets and costumes seemed even more spectacular now, but time obviously damaged a lot of the original photography, as the colors are pretty washed out. Draga Olteanu and Dem Radulescu make a good couple, but the cast highlights remain Mihai Fotino and Marin Moraru, the two scoundrels running around in the moneyed hillbilly mansion, dressed like u0026quot;ladiesu0026quot; and trying to make an impression on their hosts. The scene where they take refuge in a tree, after trying to steal some money from Radulescuu0026#39;s mansion, used to be hilarious. Now, itu0026#39;s just funny.”
