Another Great Piece of Work By The King of Iran's Cinema
parandco_19996 October 2009
Although after these few years I was still in the mood of "Sag Koshi" , this movie shocked and moved me amazingly. Still to be remembered that Mr.Beizae is for sure the best Iranian director who can make movies that may only Iranian can truly conceptualize and identify with. This movie is not for everyone and it may not fulfill everyone's expectation of an Iranian Movie. I remember some people left the hall after 30-40 minutes and many who remained silently in their seat for the whole time, clapped hardly for this man, honoring Iranian Cinema every time he makes a new movie. Characters were fully shaped and created with detailed obsession. Every single move of the camera was noticed & every single narrative of the movie was collectively selected. Nothing was for fun and nothing was accidental which are strong elements of a brilliant scenario; Unexpected might happen and reality reveals, but yet you enjoy it anyway.

Bahraam Beizaie is one of the best directors in Iran and i've seen a lot of his works and most of them are brilliant , It's good to know that he is originally a theater director so his works look like the stage a lot , too..! the dialogues are very powerful ... acting superb.!! the script ... I can say it's one of the strongest in the history of Iranian film making...I'm not gonna give any spoilers but I'm gonna say this much.. You'll never look at Iran's Film production the same way ever again..! the movie concentrates on one topic " Cinema" but it can easily be expanded into every Iranian's life..." What money can buy".. all in all this movie is so worth watching... I recommend it to you all.
