抚慰

　影片以18世纪罗马尼亚的地下秘密组织“兄弟会”为线索，该组织密谋推翻贵族政府为目的。影片拍摄时期为罗马尼亚共产党执政时期，对“兄弟会”进行颂扬。当时的罗马尼亚受到法国大革命的影响，民族主义运动兴起。片中的“兄弟会”酝酿发动革命推翻贵族统治，而黄玫瑰则帮助 “兄弟会”与贵族军队作战。影片本来要拍成《007》那样的系列电影，但是因为后来罗马尼亚政局变化，电影业私有化，最后只拍到了第八部。
　　影片风格是美国西部片式的。男主角马尔杰拉图神出鬼没，神勇无比，为“兄弟会”出生入死。他不停地嗑瓜子动作，成为他的招牌。扮演马尔杰拉图的演员叫弗洛林·彼耶尔西克，据说，他在罗马尼亚电影表演界的地位，与现在的罗马尼亚电影创作协会主席塞尔裘·尼古莱斯库相当。片中的黄玫瑰很像个美国牛仔。比如，他的枪法很好，还会趴在地上听马蹄声，而且片中还出现了西部片必然会有的场面：群马追击四轮...

　　Mari (Marina Vlady) runs a boardinghouse for girls who are in trouble, and Juli (Lili Monori) is a young married woman who is fleeing her passionate marriage with an uncontrollable alcoholic. She has brought her young daughter along with her. Though this is not allowed under the house rules, Mari makes an exception for Juli. Both women are desperately unfulfilled - Mari has a narrow-minded and passionless man for a husband, and Juli still loves her husband, whom she recognizes as a person she cannot continue living with. The two turn to each other for comfort, and each woman gains necessary insights into her own life in seeing the other's struggles. This sober movie by feminist director Marta Meszaros was not a rousing box-office success.
