Ahmad Kiarostami Talks About His Father’s Final Passion Project, 24 FRAMES

After his father’s death in 2016, Ahmad Kiarostami helped complete the conceptually daring meditation on image-making the great Iranian director had been working on for the last five years of his life.

Can not wait to see the master's final film. He's always been concerned with the image and try to show a truth and that often times the image you see is lying to you or not showing the actual truth of what's in the frame by creating a narrative truth. Not a whole truth. Plus, I'll be getting to go to Paris here very soon and see the Eifel Tower myself with my own eyes. So, there's that. I'll have to see if I can find that shot in the city.

I think it's more concealing and recontextualizing than lying

I like Kiarostami's films like Certified Copy and Close-Up but my god!, The Taste of Cherry was just bullshit. The presentation felt muddled up and just messy. Shouldn't have won Palme D'or. Just my opinion

why dont you make a movie and then get the palma dor yourself..no indians havent got that yet.

It just requires multiple viewings, my man. While all of Kiarostami's films have the rich dialogue as their focal point, in Taste of Cherry its place is taken by brooding silence and contemplation, even I couldn't get much into it in my first viewing.
And I absolutely love Close-up, as you can see from my profile picture, want to watch Certified Copy some day!
