Summary/Abstract: Romanian historical film has several characteristics that gives it unity with respect to vision and specific, some of the most evident would be, firstly, the poetic aspect, expressed through visual art but also through ideas, then the meditative-reflexive flavour stamped on the main character but also on the somber, gloomy atmosphere of a stirred past, artistically transfigured in its greatness. Through esthetically controverted, but creatively stimulating, epic-illustrative formulas, which mix emphasis, mystery and analogy, historical films revive in this way the beauty of the dramatic emotions of the homeland, often mysticised by culturalist productions of today's communicative world.
