Romance grows in the land

An academic viewing at the Film Archive, accompanied by the first snow this winter. The illiterate Hussein was a bit disgusting at first. He was arrogant, picky, chattering, and overreaching... Later, in the process of filming, he passively accepted, listened and watched, and gradually discovered the cuteness. His shooting performance is really good. He has never NG because of him. It turns out that his choice is "I won't go back to work as a mason, if I go back, it will only be for you", he "isn't looking for someone to help me collect clothes. "You read the book, I will bring you tea and water, sometimes you will bring it." He found a table for the teacup and put a flower on the tray. There was a little romance in his stupidity, and he called the girl many times. Hussein was criticized by the director for forgetting to say "Mr." in his name, and he persuaded the director "Nowadays, many women don't call their husbands "Mr." in their families. It won't be unnatural." It is true that Hussein is rough, but the love he shows when facing the girl he likes is also very touching. He took off the shiny leather shoes from the shooting and put on the broken sneakers. He said, "What woman does Hussein want?" but his legs followed Taheri firmly. Still one does not say a word, and the other is chasing after him. But watching the movie, I am no longer afraid of the girl, nor do I feel that Hussein hates it, and even think that he may have hope (no). It suddenly dawned on me that persistence itself is a very beautiful, artistic, and romantic existence. The director's observation and "encouragement" in the film are as if he is an audience within a film within a film! And, the green land at the end is so beautiful. End out, the snow will stop. Several girls were excited at the corners of the pavilion and the golden fallen leaves covered with snow. Smile, how romantic is life itself!

One of the funniest parts of the film: The chef on the set got up late, and when the staff spoke to him, he said angrily--Hussein was shouting "Where are my white socks?" all night yesterday (the next day filmed lines), the wind is blowing, he is roaring, I haven’t slept all night!

Through the Olive Trees quotes

  • Hossein: Mam, I'm really sorry. I want to do everything you ask me, but I won't do masonry. I don't work in construction anymore. I came to act in your film. I will work as an actor, but not as a mason.
