Ocazie cu care am vazut unul din actorii pe care i-am remarcat in multe din filmele noi, pe langa o gramada de Dacii:
Asa ca am asteptat cu nerabdare s-aud despre Romania. Si auzit-am urmatorul dialog:
JS: Were you able to film in.. uhm..
RW: Bosnia? No. We filmed in Romania. So, Romania, Bucharest doubled for late 90s Bosnia.
JS: OK. Now, I’ve been to Bucharest in the early 90s or late 80s. I spent an hour layover.
RW: In the airport, yeah.
JS: Beautiful lavatories. The detail on the tile.. Say what you will about Stalin: the man knew that when it’s time to go..
RW: It’s gotta look good around you.
JS: Thank you.
RW: I’m with you.
JS: You want some peace. How long were you in the Bucharest for? You spent time there previously?
RW: No, I’ve never been before. We were there for four weeks. It was a low budget movie so we shot a lot of footage per day.
JS: Now when you shoot a movie such as this and it is very politically charged and all that, is there interference, do the people who were involved in this type of case – are they aware of what you’re doing, are they trying to stop what you’re doing, or is everybody out there trying to catch a sketch can?
RW: I will not , no one knew us in Romania, we changed the names of the individuals involved [..] If we had used the real names the insurance would’ve been more expensive and the budget of the film [..]
JS: So you’re basically in Bucharest, driving UN trucks, going “we’re filming the sequel to Norbit”
Dac-as fi ZBiM, m-as trezi plangand ca Jon Stewart “fura” de la mine ideea cu buda, fiindca in “despre mine” scriam in Ianuarie 2008:
Minisong-ul, un grup muzical de plozi, racola de la noi, si tot la noi repetam. Am intrat in el si-am fost un pic in afara tarii. Imi amintesc cu siguranta c-am fost in Spania si-n Elvetia, dar nu mai mult de-atat. Am dormit cu totii o noapte in aeroportul din Zurich, o experienta pe care n-o recomand nimanui.
Asa-i in tenis: astepti prea mult cu povestea intreaga, ti-o fura altul.
Imi amintesc ca am mai vazut un film cu fix aceeasi tematica dar nu-mi amintesc numele – era vorba de o prostituata romanca traficata in Bosnia si folosita de soldatii NATO. Whistleblower (premiera TIFF) este bazat pe intamplarile lui Kathryn Bolkovac, care a fost angajata de o firma privata si descopera ca soldatii NATO cumparau prostitutate, unele sub 18 ani.
Faptul ca acest film despre coruptia NATO, UN etc este filmat in Romania, chipurile cea mai curupta tara europeana este de o ironie inefabila. Totusi, chiar romani care au stat aici o vreme continua sa nege ca ar exista coruptie si in afara Romaniei. E ca si cu Fox News: ce repeti de suficient de multe ori ajunge realitate.
