An Unnamed Star Trailers

"Stars never leave their orbits". The poor astronomy teacher got one more demonstration of this law when he met HER. SHE was "from the another world". SHE was strange and inappropriate in his tiny calm town. Town with slough-like life and citizens who spent all their time gossiping. Once he almost started to believe that the miracle is possible... but "the stars never leave their orbits"

Kirpianuscus the play of Mihail Sebastian "Steaua fără nume" has a lovely adaptation. this is the start point for define this light-full film, bitter-sweet, giving to play a special flavor of atmosphere and small details recreating the picture of community, respecting the spirit of a drama about small things, from idealism to love, to clash between different perspectives about life and right way for define the challenges. so, Sebastian universe in precise reflection.
sunlion A beautiful rendering of a book, a fairy-tale for grownups. The theme is being rich and poor, what it means to people, can we really give up riches for love in search of happiness or do the riches comprise our happiness. Poor people living in a small sleepy town and rich ones going around the world, which are happier, in what way, do they realize it ?"With my love it`s paradise even in a straw hut" , is it so for the heroes of the film ?
kurdimurdi This is what you see through the eyes of a Russian komsomol (young communist organization) member of the 80ies. The Bitch of a rich guy is put off the train in the middle of nowhere, cos she wanted to pay for her ticket with the tokens of some casino. It´s a village, they don´t have a hotel. She needs place to sleep over a night. Young astronomer invites her to sleep over. He tells her about stars. She falls in love with him. In other words I gave a 10 and I have to admit that I cry every time I see it and don´t ask me why do I do that, and seeing it makes me feel good, and the astronomer bloke discovered a new star and named it after her. Here you have it.
lenusik The small provincial town atmosphere is described very well by the single night out for everyone: people go to the railroad station to look at the large train that passes at the same time. We can see all the characters there at once, and immediately draw conclusions that the town is full of characters. The teacher Marin is there later to get the book from Buharest he ordered...and the train that never stops, suddenly stops that night...here comes Mona. We immediately feel like we know so much about their lives. We also are so sad to see her go and him stay. Igor Kostolevskiy is awesome (and so good-looking)!
