Definitely, he shows a good critical sense, trimming away many of the script's faults, or even speculatively converting them into positive qualities.
I left the cinema and have not been able to say a word for more than 15 minutes. I was fascinated. in a small village, a young couple is about to get married. It would have been enough to insist a bit more on the present-day mayor's narrative about the depicted happenings, stressing the fact that everything is seen through the distorting lens of one's own affective memory.
Still, it's undeniable that Horatiu creates a world of its own, bringing it to focus with extreme expressiveness...
Dead and buried, but the communism still wanders around.
The movie tells more than it just shows, even if the story is just a little bit loose in places. So it is, but this seeming failure remained only one step away of being converted into what it actually purported to be: a daring mean of expression, in the best vein of elaborated style.

Surprisingly good
The script is full of good ideas and intentions, all in all about half-fulfilled: the story-line is somewhat linear, and lacking many of the important joints of a well articulated scenario - but, on the positive side, it's entertaining and rich in content, able to combine into a well balanced recipe the tragedy and comedy.
To my extremely agreeable surprise, Horatiu proved himself a true director.
It naturally flows from the savorous comedy bucolical scenes towards the dark drama at the end. A conquest of minds not only of soil.

SILENT WEDDING
by Horaţiu Mălăele, Vlad Paunescu
synopsis
Romania, 1953. A lot of meaning - I am sure for non-Romanians has not the same amount of meaning - and an authentic way of touching the most sensitive parts of the Romanian people, with humor on the most critical aspects of the most absurd time, the communist time of Romania.
It's hard to forget the tasteful beauty of the erotic scenes - topped by the splendid image of Meda Victor being literally "drowned in wheat" by Alex Potocean's thrusts. Because any public celebration is forbidden, they decide to turn the happy event into a silent wedding.

The silence remains.
There will be others, I hope- since Malaele did such a good job with this first film of his.
It is not just a movie, it is a lifetime experience.

Alegoric.
Allegory for the Soviet conquest in Romania. All his hesitations and uncertainties are of the "inherent to a debut" type - and remarkably few in number. Because any public celebration is forbidden, they decide to turn the happy event into a ...
Definitely, it's a movie to be seen - and savored with relish.

fabulous movie
For me this movie was of a great impact.
I highly recommend you to watch this movie.
In a small isolated village, in 1953, a wedding is interrupted by the news about the death of Stalin. Further, he has a powerful visual sense, and a solid capacity of synthesis.
One has commented about the movie's "theatralism" - it deliberately departs realism, by recourse to many stylish exaggerations, significant and expressive as such, but of an unlikelihood bordering impossibility.
It may very well be regarded as a critique of the Romanian capacity to adapt, our viral submissiveness that can make us just go with the wave, instead of reacting and fighting back.
