holy shit when he starts explaining the relationships bw the play and the movie! always so mind blowing when theres so much going on under the surface of films that i would never dream of noticing myself. thanks for the interview
Another excellent interview! It is such a shame he is not attending the academy awards.
He's a master. Iran's Hitchcock. Sadly I'll need to wait to watch The Salesman before I can watch this interview :-(. Keep 'em coming David. About Elly is a masterful film.
i agree he is a master and i promise you, you will never ever forget the salesman. i really don't have any words to descirbe that film!!! his best work bar none!!!! i wish he would speak a better english!!!
this should be removed. no one should be able to try and advertise the downloading of films for free that are not free. it robs artists of their work.
separation was a tremendous piece of art...the salesman is way more beyond that! the interpreter does a beautiful job, btw.
I think that too a separation was beautifully done but the salesman is much more beautiful
Great interview. If you could shoot with two cameras, you could eliminate the interpreters voice and add them as subtitles, that way it would reduce the lag for viewers. Just a suggestion.
I made the choice long ago not to eliminate the translation. My interviews are designed to be uncut and allow the viewer to have the full experience I have, not an edited version as is the media norm. But I hear you.
makes sense. that's why I love your stuff. they're uncut. keep up the good work
Good desicion. Beautiful interview. The interpreter is part of the interview somehow. This interview made me want to learn farsi and also made me think of Denis Villeneuve's Arrival.
Love your interviews. Keep it going. :)
The interpreter is great.
@@dp30 but it can be tiring.
Fascinating description of his process, conceiving this film, and combining it with Miller's play. Great interview!
A true master of the cinema.
a great film director
Lol, wow! look how busy he is that he doesn't even have 2 seconds to fix his collar after wearing his sweater. 😃
does this director agree with the banning of wonder woman In Lebanon?
I saw The Salesman last night it was good but not his best. I have seen 5 films for Asghar Farhadi tell now I think about elly is the best film he has done than a separation 2 fireworks Wednesday 3 than the Salesman 4 and The Beautiful City is number 5.
Thank you for such an open conversation with this writer-director. I did enjoy The Salesman very much and It's too bad Farhadi is so resistant to doing interviews because he has a lot of insight to offer. I did grow tired of his repeatedly saying (in this & other interviews) how much he wants to distance himself from this project & move on to the next. He's not a born 'salesman' for his films at all! lol! This is something that the few of us who do make the time to really listen to filmmakers get a bit offended: we want a filmmaker to be passionate about their work and offer deeper meaning for us rather than talking about how 'hard' it is for them to talk about it! Geez. You were lucky to have made the project at all. You shouldn't poop on your own success. It's not an attractive trait. Gimme a Barry Jenkins any day of the week who demonstrates a kind of humility and gratitude for presenting the public with such a gorgeous piece of work as he did with Moonlight in 2016. Always gracious with interviews, Farhadi could learn a thing or two from Jenkins' ability to develop excitement to bring new audience to his projects.
I think you got it wrong my friend.
Firstly "as I stated in my previous interviews" the term for which you blame Farhadi is in Persian language and culture a phrase that kind of aims to apologize to the audience in advance for boring them if they feel the narrator is repeating his statements and insights. Iranians in general don't like to listen to one thing over and over.
The second reason as he mentioned in many of his past interviews is that he doesn't want his opinion to get into the mind of the audience as he always says he himself doesn't know or doesn't want to interpret as to why a character in his movie behaves in a particular way. he doesn't want to explain and send any message rather he wants to share with you his observations and allow you to contemplate and ponder about it. That's why most of his films have an open ending. so discussing his insights kind of ruins this important purpose of his.
Any filmmaker willing to share insights enhances my experience of their film. And, just like with a documentary filmmaker, there is always an agenda of the person who has made a film. I really enjoy the open endedness of his work and look forward to it as a type of 'brand' of his craft.
Thank you for your comment. I might have misunderstood your saying but you mentioned that you were getting tired of him saying "in this & other interviews" The way I interpreted is he does not want to avoid rehashing in his interviews for the sake of the audience and not himself!
take it easy!
I think not that he doesnt wanna talk about it he want the audience to understand the details and interpret them...thats when he would feel accomplished in terms of his work instead of him telling every detail :)
nice ! erase comments
He can't converse in english or he don't want to?
Kushagra Dubey They only understand American money. Even the ones that live full time in the US are too prideful of their heritage to fully assimilate. So they'll speak Farsi as often as they can and be willfully ignorant the American traditions and ways.
He doesn't have all the words to express himself in English. But he has understood more and more since I first met him in 2011. There are still things I say, on camera and off, that he doesn't quite understand. He speaks French pretty fluently, I believe. He gets better and better in English.
What Persian pissed in your coffee? I don't know you, so I won't assume you are a racist, but "even the ones who live full time"? Have you done a survey? Do you live in Westwood and know hundreds of Persians? Do you know any of the kids of Persians who have been here for 20 years or more? No doubt, there are examples like the one you state. But man, going down a dark, ugly, hateful place when you start believing you know how an entire group behaves. And I won't even get into how many of those Persians ended up here, unless you want to discuss American policy about the Shah of Iran.
Yeah.. was just curious. Nevertheless he's great at what he does and that's all what matters !
America is a continent
