Taxi - Aspects of Iranian Society

Accidentally, I saw the general type of this movie. Director Jafar Panasi himself drove a yellow taxi on the streets of Tehran, taking various passengers and recording life. I watched the traditional subtitles translated from Hong Kong. Fortunately, I have also watched a lot of Cantonese versions of Hong Kong films, and there is basically no problem in understanding them. I thought the movie would be a little more bland. No, the amount of information is surprisingly large. 1. "We are the country with the most death row prisoners except China." 2. "These movies will not be shown in theaters, and young people will not be able to see these movies without us buying CDs." Kim Kidd and Woody Allen of the United States. 4. Relevant remarks of free lawyers, hunger strike, film ban, censorship, Islam. 5. Robbery, pick-pocketing, and killing. 6. The niece, Anna, is very cute. This part is very lighthearted and funny. Of course, to understand this, you need to have a little understanding of Iran and Islam.

It seems that none of the big directors in China has ever been in jail, right? I live by selling Chinese style all day long, and look at people. Don't complain all the time about censorship and money. The movie I shot with my mobile phone in the prison went to Cannes, and I took the Golden Bear with this movie as soon as it came out. As said in the film, you can't shoot anything in your mansion all day long.

Interesting, spiritual, and audio-visual. While Iran can make such a good movie, China always puts the blame on censorship, which is unscientific.
