  "According to the police sources the two males, in their late fifties, went haywire after watching some Euro-crap movies. Netflix is facing $25B law suit as result of its liberal... some say too liberal, instant play policies."
  
  Film at eleven.
  
  I have added that Mr. Lazarescu to my list of "Movies to be watched alone at night".

    ...black humor. Did not make me depressed. After all, it does tell you right in the title what to expect.
    
    Import/Export...I dunno.

      I watched the first hour on my computer, and did not notice any humorous moments so far. It is dry-bone real... brutal with no glimpse of hope.
      
      Loved the paramedic, she is wonderful. In fact all characters so far are extremely well acted.
      
      The overworked doctor is great too. Like it or not, this is the reality in which many people live. I have been there... actually far worse (the Romanian hospitals are not the worst), and many scenes here ring true of the situations I have seen.

          :( Too bad some people can't put one and one together.

                  It had good moments, but overall it is more like a collection of Etudes, not a complete symphony. It is easy to stimulate the emotions by showing suffering, so they don't get a badge for that.

                    other hospital folks are memorable, and the suffering is leavened as in the best black comedies.
                    I'll see it again and see if it worsens.
