Dragos Badita

Dragoș Bădiță is a visual artist and filmmaker who lives and works in Bucharest, Romania. His physical media (including oil and ink) and digital works (including generative art, video, and animation) have been screened and exhibited around the world, and reflect on the transience of experience and a connection to a broader understanding of reality. Bădiță’s works originate from fleeting, lived moments that become infused with existential and sometimes mystical themes and states of mind.

Four Weddings and a Funeral

Dir. Mike Newell
118 min

Four Weddings begins with an onslaught of fucks. It's the first signal that this rom-com will break from tradition, despite the ritualized structural conceit described in the title. The witty screenplay is by Richard Curtis — it's still his best.
