I still love this

Farhadi is worthy of being a screenwriting wizard. In recent years, his works have a very high level, excellent screenwriters, and excellent directors. Although there are calculations in his films, it is precisely this kind of step-by-step approach to achieve the peak. Although the salesman is an over-inflated male power, the female consciousness is minimal but insinuated. It's the whole Iranian society. What's interesting is that Farhadi used the protagonist's drama and life experience to bridge the final death and revenge. It's not pleasure or authority. The real victim became a bystander and even showed sympathy. But the embarrassing situation of being powerless makes people sigh Said that I am really in awe of faith. "Salesman" has faded away from faith. This time, it gave us another chance to experience physical and mental experience. I am looking forward to Farhadi's next work.

    7.5, Farhadi is now the greatest master of melodrama and probably unique. Behind the extremely tense story is still the irreconcilable value differences and moral dilemma between the middle class and the bottom people of Iran that the director wants to express. The previous past is indeed disappointing, but back to the standard Iranian social background, Farhadi's answer sheet is still very satisfactory.

    The image of the old man's family is a little too thin and too face, but the other plots are laid out as if watching the companion volume of "A Parting". It's just that this time the target is directed at the concept of shame in a male-dominated society. The protagonist switches between the identities of the victim and the perpetrator, all because of the dignity of the male authority. In the play, I think it's the finishing touch. Farhadi's standard.
