    Bazin restores the extension and complete sublimation of material reality, and executes the dramatic structure and real situation in a naturalistic way. The formed images look at the concept of "image, identity" as a whole, and at the same time, describe many real-fictional objects that are difficult to objectify. The feelings expressed, perhaps because of the modernity of the ontology, simply depicting the record has the same value as the rendition of the play, but it still reflects Abbas'...

    #BIFF# The restoration version supervised by Abbas himself in September 2015, the restoration quality is very good. "Why Perform" docudrama. In the last scene, the liar who was filmed by the director to play the director was released from prison to meet the real director, and the mic was picked up intermittently, bringing out another theme related to "acting":...

    "I just wanted to play the movie, I didn't want to be played by the movie." Sabzian "confessed" so. Even in the name of the movie, Sabzian is still a liar, but when the event turns into a movie, he becomes a vested interest and exploited. Half of it is a record, half is a reproduction, and what others have shot is a TV feature film, but Abbas has made a great work. The key is that he did not stay out of the way or occupy the commanding heights in the observation and...

    The man who loves movies is ruined by movies, his reality is the personification of drama. Abbas' audience is deceived by reality, but the drama we see is real. When we doubt the falsity of the film and believe it is natural, in fact the film as a simulacrum is under the control of Abbas. The subtitles are bad and uncomfortable to...

    4.5; Close-up examines the soul, I just want to say that such a country that met in the name of the movie, cheated in the name of the movie, and finally relieved in the name of the movie, is as warm and powerful as the...

    A constant theme of Abbas' films is the "fake" and how it arises and presents itself in the world, and this transmutation requires an underlying situation that leads to ambiguity and openness to one's own perception. The close-up is a gaze on the "fake", pressing its "feel" and "reality" together, finally revealing the essence of this transmutation to...

    After thinking about it, I still marked it with the label of "documentary", because the court record still accounts for the largest proportion (the Iranians are so long-winded, whether it is here, or "A Farewell"!). But the best part is to invite the parties involved in the case to replay their own paragraphs, breaking the boundary between fiction and reality. It feels amazing! It might just be a "dream almost gone astray" little thing, but the movie makes it...

    A social news-style story was filmed by Abbas to show the sadness of a small person. It is ridiculous for the protagonist to gain self-confidence by pretending to be a director, but it reveals a deep sense of class. At the end, the bouquet of apologetic flowers instantly makes the story. warmed...

    I always felt embarrassed, embarrassed and embarrassed, and it was so touching in the...

    Abbas is naturally a good screenwriter, but his achievements in films are not in stories (content), and films that win only by stories do not account for a large proportion of a director’s work. How to tell the story (form) is important is his focus. In other words, he has always considered the question of "what the hell is a...
