Noul Val De Actori Romani Scris de cristina.mihalascu pe 24 octombrie 2010, 16:58 Noul val de actori romani - Sinteza Sunt tineri, ambitiosi si vin cu un nou mod de abordare a personajelor pe care le interpreteaza, cu mai multa lejeritate decat precursorii lor. Vin de jos, de pe scena underground, dar sunt scoliti in teatru.Unii castiga din reclame, telenovele sau cantand in formatii, altii prezinta emisiuni sau regizeaza filme. Vorbim de noul val de actori, cei carora, gratie fenomenului de globalizare, cariera internationala li se deschide mult mai abitir decat se intampla dupa caderea comunismului. cristian-mungiu-4luni-3saptamani-2zile.jpg E nevoie de existenta unui regizor bun, de un rol convingator, de aparitii la festivalurile europene de film pentru ca mai apoi totul sa vina de la sine: prestatia actorului este remarcata de nume importante in cinematografie si lansarea devine iminenta. Imitand viata si nu cartile, ancorati in realitatea cotidiana, cu bune, dar mai ales cu rele, jocul interpretativ al tinerilor actori romani imprumuta mult din jocul american, care este mai putin teatral si mai mult real. Anamaria Marinca Nascuta la Iasi, din mama violonista si tata profesor de teatru, a studiat vioara dar a renuntat in favoarea actoriei. A absolvit Universitatea de Arta George Enescu din Iasi iar prima sa mare sansa a venit la 25 de ani cand a dat un casting pentru interpretarea rolului Elenei Visinescu, victima a unei retele de carne vie in mini serialul „Sex Traffic”. Acest film i-a adus titlul de „Cea mai bun actrita” in 2005, la British Academy Television Awards si i- a dat sansa sa se faca recunoscuta international, doi ani mai tarziu, in filmul “Tinerete fara tinerete”, regizat de Francis Ford Coppola. Tot in 2007 a jucat rolul principal in filmul “4 luni, 3 saptamani si 2 zile”, care a primit premiul Palme d'Or la Festivalul de la Cannes. Modesta din fire, Ana Maria Marinca descrie in felul urmator succesul: “Lucrurile se echilibreaza, un prea plin dintr-o parte naste lipsuri in alta parte. Succesul il platesti cu singuratate. Nu-ti dai seama daca cei care doresc sa fie in preajma ta vor asta din motive reale, ori pentru imaginea pe care o ai. E o lume superficiala aceasta lume a succesului”. Despre prima intalnire cu Cristian Mungiu, regizorul filmului “4 luni, 3 saptamani, 2 zile”, spune ca nu a fost roditoare, ca s-au intersectat la cinematograful Victoria si “el era ocupat, eu eram ocupata”. Putin mai tarziu a inmugurit o colaborare perfecta intre cei doi, Ana Maria spunand ca intelege ce spune fara vorbe si ca ii da libertatea de interpretare de care are nevoie. Filmografie Sleep with me (TV) (2009) : Sylvie The Countess (2009) : Anna Darvulia Five minutes of heaven (2009) : Vika Storm (2009) : Mira Arendt The Last Enemy (TV) (2008) : Yasim Anwar Boogie (2008) - Smaranda Ciocazanu Tinerete fara tinerete (2007) - Receptionera hotelului 4 luni, 3 saptamani si 2 zile (2007 - Film premiat cu Palme d'Or) : Otilia Hotel Babylon (2006) (serial TV): Natasa Sex Traffic (2004) (Mini-serial) : Elena Visinescu Monica Barladeanu Putini isi imaginau ca ambitioasa prezentatoare B1 Tv va urma cu seriozitatea unui profesionist calea cinematografiei si nu ghidata de curiozitatea unui incepator care cauta succesul, faima. Anul 2004 este rampa sa de lansare prin rolul asistentei jucat in filmul “Moartea domnului Lazarescu”. Succesul enorm de care s-a bucurat acest film, care a adunat nu mai putin de 30 de premii la festivalurile de profil, printre care Un certain Regard (Cannes) si Silver Hugo (Chicago), s-a transferat si asupra frumoasei romance. Fire ambitioasa, isi propune in 2005 sa cucereasca publicul american schimbandu-si numele in Monica Dean si obtine roluri mici in filme precum “Incubus”, “Second in Command” sau “Living & Dying”. Rolul Gabriellei Busoni in serialul american de succes “Lost” este cel mai inalt varf atins de actrita pana in acest moment. Vazand ca Hollywood este un bastion greu de cucerit, Monica se intoarce in cinematografia europeana, mai valoroasa dar mai putin faimoasa decat cea americana, in rolul Francescai din filmul cu acelasi nume, regizat de iubitul sau Bobby Paunescu. Pelicula a fost prezentata la Festivalul de Film de la Venetia si, in ciuda ecoului pozitiv primit din partea criticilor si publicului, a fost interzis dupa ce deputata Alessandra Mussolini, nepoata fostului dictator fascist Benito Mussolini, si primarul Veronei, Flavio Tosi, au sesizat ca in film exista replici pe care le considera insultatoare la adresa lor. Ada Condeescu si George Pistereanu. Tinerii actori in varsta de 22, respectiv 19 de ani, au avut o sansa unica in viata de a debuta pe marele ecran intr-un film care i-a facut cunoscuti in toata lumea. Dupa trei luni de probe pentru castingul filmului “Eu cand vreau sa fluier, fluier”, George Pistereanu a primit rolul principal al detinutului Silviu. De actorie nu s-a apucat de la inceput, a cantat in Corul Operei de Copii, si-a facut o trupa de muzica aromana si a vrut sa dea examen la Liceul Dinu Lippati, dar probele grele l-au facut sa se orienteze catre actorie. Despre relatia sa cu regizorul Florin Serban, tanarul actor spune: “Tot ce stiu este de la Florin. La filmari imi spunea mereu cate o poveste. Odata, mi-a zis de marii strategi romani, care scriau strategii: daca te afli pe campul de lupta cu un adversar vizibil mai puternic decat tine, trebuie sa o iei la fuga. Si trebuie sa fugi, si sa fugi. Iar cand adversarul nu se asteapta si te considera infrant, sa te intorci. Si sa-i pui sabia in stomac. Fiindca, la finalul unei lupte, conteaza doar cine ramane in viata”. (adevarul.ro) Ada Condeescu, fiica regretatului regretatului director al Muzeului Literaturii Romane, in varsta de 22 de ani, este si ea la primul rol important din cariera in pelicula “Eu cand vreau sa fluier, fluier”. Rabdarea in cele sapte luni de casting i-a fost rasplatita si a inteles ca pentru a obtine un rol important are nevoie de multa munca. Prestatia sa in rolul psihologului a fost apreciata de critici care au numit-o “tanara speranta a cinematografiei europene”. Despre regizorul care a facut-o cunoscuta in intreaga lume, Ada spune: “Am lucrat extraordinar de bine cu el. Este un om foarte inteligent si la un moment dat chiar ne intelegeam din priviri. Stie foarte bine ce vrea de la un actor si cum sa obtina acel lucru”. (filmetari.ro) Alexandra Maria Lara Alexandra Maria Lara, pe numele sau adevarat Alexandra Platareanu, s-a nascut pe 12 noiembrie 1978, in Bucuresti. Actrita are o poveste de viata care ar putea servi drept scenariu de film. Pe cand avea 4 ani, familia ei decide sa fuga Romania comunista.. Desi initial voiau sa mearga in Canada, ajung in Germania, unde locuiesc mai intai la Freiburg in Breisgau, ulterior mutandu-se la Berlin. Dupa absolvirea Liceului Francez din Berlin, in 1997, Lara incepe sa studieze actoria la Theaterwerkstatt Charlottenburg, al carui cofondator este chiar tatal acesteia. La 16 ani juca deja diverse roluri principale in dramele de televiziune germane, de exemplu serialul "Die Bubi Scholz Story" (1998) (TV). Performanta aclamata de catre critici din "Der Tunnel" (2001), ii deschide drumul spre marele ecran. Rolurile care au facut-o faimoasa pe plan international sunt: Traudl Junge, secretara lui Adolf Hitler in drama germana nominalizata la Oscar pentru Cel mai bun film strain, "Der Untergang" (2004). Datorita acestei performante extrem de convingatoare, Lara primeste o scrisoare de la regizorul Francis Ford Coppola, in care ii propune un rol principal in filmul “Youth Without Youth” (2007). Tot in 2007, joaca rolul juralistei Annik Honoré in filmul "Control" (2007), care expune biografia canterului Ian Curtis. Cariera sa de succes in Germania, unde a interpretat roluri me, imorabile, i-a adus un loc la masa juriului Festivalului de la Cannes in 2008. “Autoritatea regizorului, daca e folosita de acesta inteligent e foarte necesara unui film. Dar nu sunt de acord cu regizorii teroristi care tin pe toata lumea in tensiune”, este de parere frumoasa actrita. Dragos Bucur Dragos Bucur, in varsta de 33 de ani este unul dintre cei mai talentati si prolifici actori romani din tanara generatie si cel de-al treilea roman, dupa Maria Popistasu (2007) si Anamaria Marinca (2008), selectionat in cadrul prestigiosului program international Shooting Stars, din cadrul Festivalului de Film de la Berlin. Motivatia jurului pentru nominalizarea lui Dragos Bucur in 2010 a fost: „Actorul ne aminteste de cantaretul vrajitor din Hamelin, cel cu fluier fermecat; el se dedica cu atata intensitate interpretarii, incat publicul nu are de ales si trebuie sa-l urmeze. Cu enorm de multa precizie, el da viata conflictelor interioare ale personajelor sale si efectul este fascinant.” La randul sau, Dragos Bucur povesteste despre distinctia primita: "Este bine pentru mine ca actor ca cinematografia romana e in centrul atentiei, pentru ca asta reprezinta o oportunitate. Cel mai probabil, succesul cinematografiei romane are legatura cu revolutia si cu schimbarile, avem noi regizori, noi scenaristi, noi actori". Dragos Bucur a absolvit Universitatea Nationala de Arta Teatrala si Cinematografica, sectia Actorie, si a inceput sa joace la teatrul Podul, al profesorului Catalin Naum. Timp de cinci ani, Bucur a jucat in numeroase piese si a predat actoria in facultati de teatru si film. Primele roluri de film au fost in “Marfa si banii", regizat de Cristi Puiu, selectat in sectiunea Quinzaine des Réalisateurs, Cannes, 2001, si "Furia" lui Radu Muntean, pentru care a primit Premiul pentru cel mai bun actor, din partea Uniunii Cineastilor. Dragos a mai jucat si in lungmetrajele lui Radu Muntean, "Hartia va fi albastra" (2006) si "Boogie", selectat in sectiunea Quinzaine des Réalisateurs la Cannes, unde detine rolul principal.

  • John Simm ~ 47 Screen Credits and More
    John Simm ~ 47 Screen Credits and more The eldest of three children, actor and musician John Ronald Simm was born on 10 July 1970 in Leeds, West Yorkshire and grew up in Nelson, Lancashire. He attended Edge End High School, Nelson followed by Blackpool Drama College at 16 and The Drama Centre, London at 19. He lives in North London with his wife, actress Kate Magowan and their children Ryan, born on 13 August 2001 and Molly, born on 9 February 2007. Simm won the Best Actor award at the Valencia Film Festival for his film debut in Boston Kickout (1995) and has been twice BAFTA nominated (to date) for Life On Mars (2006) and Exile (2011). He supports Man U, is "a Beatles nut" and owns seven guitars. John Simm quotes I think I can be closed in. I can close this outer shell, cut myself off and be quite cold. I can cut other people off if I need to. I don't think I'm angry, though. Maybe my wife would disagree. I love Manchester. I always have, ever since I was a kid, and I go back as much as I can. Manchester's my spiritual home. I've been in London for 22 years now but Manchester's the only other place ... in the country that I could live. You never undertake a project because you think other people will like it - because that way lies madness - but rather because you believe in it. Twitter has restored my faith in humanity. I thought I'd hate it, but while there are lots of knobheads, there are even more lovely people.

In the afternoon, they are going to meet a certain Mr. Bebe. Găbiţa is pregnant, abortion is illegal and neither of them have passed through something like this before. 4 months, 3 weeks & 2 days belongs to a larger project called: Tales from the Golden Age – a subjective history of communism in Romania told through its urban legends. The projectʼs aim is to talk about that period with no direct reference to communism but only through different stories focused on personal options in a time of misfortunes that people had to live like normal times.

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION Christina Stojanova The New Romanian cinema exploded onto the international film festival scene in the mid-2000s, catching audiences and critics completely by surprise. And if the ‘Un Certain Regard’ Best Film at the 2005 Cannes Film Festival for The Death of Mr Lăzărescu could be ignored as a happenstance, the numerous awards that followed in quick succession for The Paper Will Be Blue, Ryna and How I Spent the End of the World suggested a tendency. The Camera D’Or at the 2006 Cannes for 12:08 East of Bucharest and especially the dual success at Cannes 2007 – Un Certain Regard Award for Cristian Nemescu’s California Dreamin’ and especially the Palm D’Or for Cristian Mungiu’s 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days – sealed the rise to prominence of this hitherto obscure national cinema. It took however another couple of years for critics to finally agree that a ‘new wave has finally arrived at the Black Sea’ (Scott 2008), and to admit that ‘Romanian filmmaking is now perceived as the hotbed of a fresh, expressive, and pertinent cinematic renewal’ (Kaceanov 2008). A few years later, such sentiments would become a common media occurrence, corroborated by a blogger, who wrote that Romanian cinema ‘never ceases to surprise and impress with the rigour of its execution, its intelligence and moral dimensions’ (Père: 2012). Almost fifteen years later, with more than two hundred prestigious awards for forty or so notable films by world-renowned directors like Cristi Puiu, Cristian Mungiu, Corneliu Porumboiu, Cristian Nemescu, Radu Jude, Radu Muntean, Tudor Giurgiu, Călin Peter Netzer, Cătălin Mitulescu, Nae Caranfil and others, 1 STOJANOVA 9781474442649 PRINT.indd 1 23/11/2018 09:52 CHRISTINA STOJANOVA Romanian cinema remains securely in the limelight of the international film festival circuit.

Nor is it the result of a subjective selection performed by the authors. Nor,again,is it the book of a generation of filmmakers,since the directors here presented claim no explicit common ground and there is little to recommend them as a group with a shared artistic discourse. What, then, is the present volume? It is a project intended to bring together, for the first time, all the directors who made their feature film debut after 1989 and whose achievements were acknowledged through national or international awards.

  • 2004 Programme Review
    CHANNEL 4 – REVIEW OF 2004 Channel 4 has proved in 2004 that it can offer a fresh and relevant interpretation of public service broadcasting whilst achieving the commercial success necessary to fund ambitious and risky projects. We have had a very successful year editorially and we have maintained the range and diversity of our suppliers. The Channel won more than 70 national and international awards, including 4 international Emmys. We have increased our share in peak and in our key demographics in a fiercely competitive multichannel market. The Channel’s remit requires innovation, diversity and distinctiveness. Green Wing, Touching the Void, Spitfire Ace, My Foetus and Supernanny demonstrate that these have been achieved in every part of the schedule and with significant public impact. Channel 4 proved its distinctiveness with programmes ranging from Shameless to Hamburg Cell to Sex Traffic and with unique voices such as Jon Ronson (Crazy Rulers of the World), Kate Blewett and Brian Woods (The Transplant Trade), Nick Broomfield (Aileen Wuornos) and Daisy Asquith (Whatever – A Teenage Musical). The Channel has offered original programmes with range and quality, challenging viewers with polemical and highly personal views from Bob Geldof, Darcus Howe, Peter Hitchens, Fiona Millar and Greg Dyke. The excellence of Channel 4 News was recognised with a second International Emmy, and Current Affairs continued to offer a strong domestic and international agenda in Dispatches and Unreported World.
