Vlad to know you: Coppola in Romania, datorită

Variety reports Francis Coppola, at 66, after 8 years of mulling Megalopolis, is making a low-budget, self-financed version of Romanian author Mircea Eliade's "Youth Without Youth."

It was reported in July in Romania, but who reads Atac? Most provocative somewhat discernible pharse? It's the story of an "asistenta medicala o bruneta si agent secret o blonda"! Variety says the current cast is Tim Roth, Alexandra Maria Lara, Bruno Ganz, Marcel Iures, and involves a post-World War II fugitive criss-crossing Romania, Switzerland, Malta and India. Tim Robbins was originally involved: "Pentru rolul principal, al batranului Dominic Matei, regizorul l-a ales pe actorul American Tim Robbins, sotul actritei Susan Sarandon, dar pentru cateva personaje secundare a acceptat o distributie autohtona. In urma cu cateva zile, au inceput castingurile, in Romania, o asistenta medicala bruneta si o blonda agent secret. Una dintre actritele care s-a inscris deja la probe pentru rolul brunetei este Daniela Nane. In varsta de 66 de ani, regizorul Francis Ford Coppola a avut in minte acest proiect de film inca de la vizita sa de acum sase luni in Romania."
