I’m back after a break. Not that i have been lazy, but there have been tough days and i didn’t feel like writing. We finished all the frames from kiki’s apartment (Maria), including the famous lunch scene about which i have written before. Razvan Radulescu has been on the set also and was very curious about how the scene turned out. I gather he got this idea while working on the script wth cecilia. This is how i found out that he wrote to Didi Danquart a 14 page lunch scene for OFFSET. No comment  I hope that Munteanu will get the same treatment at his film about the Revolution, at least about 15-16 pages... The settings from Maria’s room look very cool, i was quite scared of this moment. The favourite properties from the interior: a Suzana Dan painting (wedding gift), Adriana Grand’s drawings, the robot built by Adriana, and the buttons box (same) + the cherry on top: the page cut from THE FACE, where two drunk cartoon characters took the face of Chrila and Maria. Fane, our very talented property man, cut their faces from some pictures and put the instead of the original heads. It look supercool. In the last day we shoot with a little, balc, cat, that was just great. A kitten that became the star of the set. In that moment, accidentaly, i made an instant pawl to a cool line from the film where Maria tell Ioana „cats come back always alone”. Noir film title... we also shoot at the Law hostel, everyting once again OK, except for the depresive look of the hostelk, sometimes i think that 15 years have passed in vain.
Saturday break, a lot of sleep, discussions with the Libra team about the film and other projects. I wanted to go to the concert at Sala Palatului, but it didn’t connect, Oana was at Balanescu, and we finally went for a wine at „Cina” where it was full of „concert people:... in the night i dreamt something very strange, i was in a Mall that exploded very slowly, piece by piece, like in a Busby Berkeley coreography, very precise, everything ralenti; obviously, i got out, everything else boomed like in Zabriskie Point. Today i realised that the dream happened on the 9th/10, not on the 9/11, but close...
Yesterday I talked to Chirilov on the phone, he’s in Venice, he told me that Ang Lee’s film would take the Golden Lion and that it is great. I was very glad, i remember having seen in the States „Ice Storm” and i got chicken skin.
