Source: Ion Butnaru, "Actualitatea culturală bucureșteană. Între proză, film și dramaturgie — Interlocutor Fănuș Neagu", in Informația Bucureștiului, 7 February 1987, p. 5: Lucrez în prezent la două piese: „Casa de la miezul nopții", pentru „Bulandra“, și „Golful de plumb", pentru „Nottara“. Cea dintîi e o poveste de dragoste [...]. Cealaltă e o dramă care mi s-a întipărit in minte în timpul marilor revărsări de ape din deceniul trecut, cînd am trăit cîteva zile și nopți pe acoperișul Fabricii de Conserve Zagna-Vădeni; jur-împrejur pluteau milioane de cutii de conserve. Siretul curgea pe o lățime de 17 kilometri [...]. Eram împreună cu un inginer, cu zece muncitori, care încercau să salveze ce se mai putea salva, precum și cu niște indivizi, aruncați acolo de-o luntre spartă, și cu un lup azvîrlit de ape, care tremura de frica noastră. -- "I am presently working on two plays: 'A Midnight Home' for Bulandra, and 'A Gulf of Lead' for Nottara. The former is a love story [...]. The other is a drama that got stuck in my mind during the great floods of the preceding decade, when for a few days and nights I lived on the roof of Zagna-Vădeni Cannery; millions of cans were floating all around. The Siret had widened to 17 kilometers [...]. There was me, alongside an engineer, and ten workers, who were working on salvaging all that could be salvaged, as well as some fellas that had been thrown there out of a wrecked boat, and a wolf that had been discarded there by the waters, all trembling with fear at the sight of us."
ALT1: ... that Romanian novelist Fănuș Neagu(pictured) once appeared on screen as a heavy-drinking Soviet general—a role which "fit him like a glove, according to the more spiteful of commentators"? Source: Gabriel Dimisianu, "Amintiri cu Fănuș Neagu", in România Literară, Issue 13/2002, pp. 12–13: A doua zi apăru, într-adevăr, Fănuș Neagu [...], o namilă blondă cu alură izbitoare de rusnac. De pe urma acesteia s-a ales, peste ani, cu un rol într-un film de Andrei Blaier, acela al generalului Susaikov, trimisul rușilor în Comisia aliată de control, mare petrecăreț și frecventator asiduu, cum reiese din film, al caselor de plăcere din Crucea de piatră. Fănuș l-a interpretat cu mult aplomb, potrivindu-i-se rolul ca o mănușă, cum au susținut unii comentatori malițioși. -- "On the second day, we were indeed greeted by Fănuș Neagu [...], a blond-haired giant that perfectly resembled a Russki. Thanks to this he would much later be cast by Andrei Blaier in a film role as general Susaikov, a Russian member of the Allied Control Commission, a heavy drinker and, as the film suggests, a habitual client of the Crucea de piatră bordellos. Fănuș stepped into the role with great confidence, since it fit him like a glove, according to the more spiteful of commentators."
Overall: Only thing I'm unsure about is the excessive genres in the infobox, but that's minor. ALT0 is excellent. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 14:31, 24 July 2024 (UTC)
