This movie director who unfortunately died in a car accident and didn't manage to end this gorgeous movie is a real genius and this movie (actually his first and last long movie) is his absolute masterpiece. Interesting and typical subject for the Romanian society (all the villagers becoming really excited, seeing that they are "visited" by Americans), regarding profound problems of eastern-European mentality but at the same time funny and commercial, "California Dreamin'" has everything what a movie needs to be a great success for the public but also a valuable movie that will be for long time actual. This is where the value of this story lies. And this is also why the movie was so well received by both film critics and viewers.

RIP Cristian Nemescu.
