Re: Jodaeiye Nader az Simin [A Separation] What a great film. Everything feels so real: all the emotions, the interactions, and the suspense the drama created. Loved it and right up there as one of my favorite films of the year. A.

Re: Jodaeiye Nader az Simin [A Separation] I'm super excited to see this movie, but I need to say this: the dude's expression on the poster and every other promo image--including Internet For Your Consideration banner ads--bothers me. A lot.

Re: Jodaeiye Nader az Simin [A Separation] Definitely one of the best, if not best scripts of the year, this thing's dialog is just cracking. Really good, intense drama

Re: Jodaeiye Nader az Simin [A Separation] I didn't know much about the movie before I've watched it so I was pretty surprised by how the story went. I was really engaged the entire time and thought it was fantastic. Everything about this movie worked and I can highly recommend it. B+
