Watch The Crazy Stranger For Free

Dreadfully Boring

An absolute waste of money

A Brilliant Conflict

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Besides the fact that Romain Duris is a hotty, this movie was an adventure to watch. It basically had no plot, but was so interesting because it showed one man's willingness to try something totally crazy, like hanging out with gypsies in Romania. It was a joy to watch his struggle to communicate when he didn't understand the language. I admire this character's bravery to open himself up to a new experience and embrace it with such gusto. Kinda motivates me to seek out some adventure in my own life. (Like, learning how to dance like a gypsy, for one.) ***IMHO not appropriate for kiddos--due to, ummm, the sexualized nature of much of the content.

I would just like to say a few words about the comment of bplesa, which is more or less correct, but, in my opinion, needs some explaining regarding the title of the movie. I doubt that "crazy romanian" would be a correct translation since the title most probably refers to the french guy which, obviously, is not romanian. It could be "extended" to "crazy stranger" since he is a stranger, but i think the only translation that can be considered correct is "Crazy Guy". Gadjo and Dilo, the two words from the title, are used in romanian slang, as "gagiu", respectively "diliu", and of course were adopted from Romani (the language of the gypsies). There meaning is: gagiu=guy, diliu=crazy, so... I think that says it all.

One of my absolute favorites! It's fun, it's beautiful and you can feel the true joy of life in this film. Sabina is so beautiful and it's a liberation to see how Stephane slowly becomes a part of their life style and slowly understands that women dancing and cheering to the music is part of their life. I often listen to Balkan music and music like Cumbia one of the best parts is listening to the people in the background cheering and singing along! It's hard to come by - but I found it on amazon and it made my day :) Kustarica is good - but this is great! My favorite scene is towards the end where Stephane and Sabina goes to "the city" to party and they start to play a wedding-like song and they start to crash porcelain on the floor - by then Stephane has become a true convert to Roman :D

Nice movie...good philosophy...just enjoy life and live your experiences...follow your heart. Very nice musicIt's a good movie to watch but perhaps many too square people wont understand a bit ...in that case you may prefer Terminator.
