Before I went, the group said that this film was extremely hypnotic, but it was quite satisfying to watch the whole process. The single close-up shot is so cut that even the poster has to put two shots together into a picture...laugh. Except for a short period of time such as picking up children and getting off the bus, we have been following the car. There are a lot of two-person conversations but only one side is taken, and there are occasional cuts. And this one shot only one side is not a...

Compared with other realist works of Abbas, it is still a bit inferior. It is probably more common to watch "Taxi" first and then look back at this one, although this one uses a female taxi driver to reveal the status of Iranian women. And a more profound perspective on the social issues of life and death, family, marriage, and children in Vientiane are more profound than Panasi’s only political aspect, but maybe this kind of shooting method has become accustomed to it. There are two fixed long...

It is another film in which the in-car drama occupies the main part. The little boy and his mother had a roaring quarrel, but it was difficult to fall...

Another pioneering work by Abbas. 1. The two fixed positions of the co-pilot and the driver’s seat are used diagonally to run through the whole process. The viewing angle is limited to the "non-location" of the interior space of the car. The pedestrians, buildings and scenery outside the car are also seen through the windows. Seeing the big in a small way, watching the leopard's move in a limited way. 2. Mainly impressing the audience with dialogues that seem to be hidden in daily life and real...

Who doesn't yearn for free, unfettered space? Abbas found the car, a space more cramped than the prison, and then confined a newly divorced female driver. The passengers in the car came and went, the old women who prayed, the prostitutes, and the women trapped in love, gradually pieced together the life of Iranian women. The true picture scrolls, the secrets under the headscarf and the unspoken accusations, women are no longer the objects of scrutiny, they have to stand up and tell their...

1. The conversation that took place in this taxi, the life of the passengers and the life of the female driver can take place in China. We have overemphasized cultural differences and ignored the amazing similarities of life content. Regardless of the living standard, relationship experience, family situation, you can't see how Iran is different from Beijing and Shanghai. 2. "Taxi" filmed by Jaffa Panasi in 2015 should be like a tribute to Abbas. That film talks...

While I'm still angry, hurry up and hit two stars. Seeing the kid yelling on the screen, I wanted to beat him up every minute. . . . I hate children so...

Feminism. As far as Iran is concerned, it is a bit difficult, so movies are just movies. The quarrel between the mother and the son made me really ruined. . . "I thought everything I like could happen, I never thought it was...

Please watch it in conjunction with "Ten Resonances of Life". Divorced women, broken-hearted women, devout women who lost their husbands and sons, and drunk prostitutes. The son cannot accept his mother's remarriage and his stepmother is a woman who wants to dedicate everything to the family, pointing directly to the patriarchy. A broken-hearted woman resists patriarchy with a shaved head. Shaving her hair means abandoning dependent men. The "Giving and Asking Theory" of Prostitutes. "We are...

Abbas is not a contemporary critic of Iranian society. "Ten" just puts the car-camera in the urban space of Tehran. Unlike the contemplative nature of the wilderness, the city is a group of human beings and social and institutional other. The place of residence, the whereabouts of cars and the audio-visual space outline the geography of the journey. It stretches back and forth, passes through the journey, and reacts after encountering several people (or several "meanings"). In this way, the...
