Re: What do Iranians think of this film?

Considering that Iran banned actress Golshifteh Farahani from returning to the country because she bared her breasts in a photo-shoot, I would venture to say that this movie would be banned over there.

Wrong girl. In January 2012, it was reported that Golshifteh would not be welcome in her homeland after posing nude in the French Madame Figaro.

Britain's Daily Telegraph reported that government officials told Golshifteh that "Iran does not need actors or artists like you. You may offer your artistic services somewhere else." A picture from the shoot on her Facebook page initiated a lively debate about her behavior. She also appeared topless in a short black-and-white film by Jean-Baptiste Mondino, called Corps et mes, or Bodies and Souls.

ie Wrong girl. Sheila Vand plays The Girl.

Re: What do Iranians think of this film?

Reading comprehension. Nowhere in my comment did I say Golshifteh played The Girl. I know Sheila Vand played her. I was using Golshifteh as an example of how Iran treats nudity in entertainment.

Re: What do Iranians think of this film?

There's also a huge difference between what the Iranian government might think of a film and what Iranian people would think of the film. I've got a good friend who immigrated from Iran and while I don't know if she's seen the film, it seems like her kind of movie.

Re: What do Iranians think of this film?

I'm an Iranian
I didn't like it much
It was too boring for me and didn't have a firm structure in my opinion

gloomy atmospheres + drugs = +7 Rate on IMDB for sure!

Re: What do Iranians think of this film?

didn't like it, plot too thin and made 2001 seem face paced

5/10


so many movies, so little time

Re: What do Iranians think of this film?

Pretty sure it's the same as anywhere. 50-50. There's a difference between government and the people. If you based your opinions of all Americans on the GOP, you'd think they're all regressives.

Re: What do Iranians think of this film?

I'm not Iranian, but I was wondering if this movie could be interpreted as a critique against the Iranian regime? The girl dresses very modest, fights against 'bad' man but defends Atti who is a prostitute. We also see Arash dancing in women's clothing with a veil on his head. What do Iranian or Persian viewers think of this?

I would be extremely surprised if it had been.
