Chaharshanbeh, 19 Ordibehesht (2015)
If you want to criticize dictatorship
This is a well crafted movie. A man who is not wealthy wants to give away some amount of money. He put an ad in a newspaper and ask people who need money to come an fill an application. Large crowd is causing a traffic jam and police gets involved. This is a great story to show how this political, economical system in Iran is dysfunctional and while small number of people close to the system live a stravaganza life the majority of people are desperate for a small amount of money. A traffic jam caused by the crowd bring the police to scene that is afraid of the large crowd and see it as security thread. A bad decision from the police might cause an unrest and just a clear mind sees the sign of unrest and defuse the tension. The man eventually is in a hard position to make a decision about who is in worse economic situation and eligible to get the money. The economic and cultural misery of those people is heart breaking.
The Revenant (2015)
Are we going back to Western plot?
I was not sure to go and see a movie which everybody says that is violent, but so many nomination, I said it might worth seeing. 1- Acting and performances are really great. 2- Scenery of wilderness are amazing. 3- Plot says that a white man who is a member of missionary/frontier post who lived among the American Indigenous, and has a son, fled with a group of hunters after the the clan massacred by US army. He fled after his wife is killed, but why he did not end up with the remaining clan, and joined a group of hunters? The hunters were attacked by the "Indian" and every detail of killings pictured well. 4- You do not feel any pain that the "Indian" went through. Some of them killed by other tribes, beside being killed by white who some are good people and some are bad people. You do not find any good "Indian", or maybe I missed this part since the scene of violence were so important to be portrayed. 4- Indians in this movies portrayed as , a) Prostitute, b) fighters who just kill. c) some you can feel pity about them. Is there any story of them being human, that even a missionary goes live with them? Is this part you left to be created by your imagination? Why?
