I like to think of the three passengers as three stages of life.
The inexperienced still in-military-training boy highlights being out of your parents care for the first time, feeling scared and alone but knowing that life awaits you and that you have to find yourself.
The middle aged guy, symbolizes hardships of being on your own as an adult person (he’s an Afghan immigrant so he’s alienated by most of the society) and needing something or someone other than yourself to believe in, to make you move forward.
And the old man is when you have gone through most of life’s challenges and finally understand that’s what life is, and every moment is something to be cherished.
That cherry wasn't tasty enough for Mr. Badii 😔
The grave was next to a cherry tree I believe. We don't know if Mr. Badii fell asleep for the last time that early morning or if a third rock knocked him awake, but his tumble with life and death is something that we all go through.
I just watched this film for the first time today and love your analysis. I wasn’t prepared for the big impact this film would have on me, but am happy I finally watched it. This video deserves more likes and views. I’d love to learn more about the way you pick up interesting details in analyzing film.
When Mr bagheri give Mr badii that long lecture on how a cherry literally saved his life or how to overcome pain or depression, but at the end Mr badii ask him what will you do with him in the morning, I thought he's not listening anyone, he is blind, but when he take a u turn just to say that double check if he's alive or not, I got a hope, he has finally changed in mind, but we never know did he felt sleep in that thunder rain or not.... He did or he didn't, but i believe he didn't cuz a wise man said, always think positive.
0:00 That Criterion poster goes so freaking hard dude holy
There's so much to think about with this movie. What I find so critical is the concepts used to counteract suicide (meaning/purpose and utility) are concepts Badii uses to condone suicide. He poses the idea of: What if God meant for suicide to be a means to end suffering? And in terms of utility, he feels his suicide will be useful because he's willing to pay whoever helps him an exorbitant sum.
What I love too about the movie is how he initially tells the soldier to call out his name a few times and if there's no answer, then bury him. But when Badii speaks with the third person he propositions, he tells them to throw a rock at him and shake his shoulders too. It's one of those small, hopeful details.
It's also interesting to think about how Badii kept propositioning another person: it was risky to his resolution to suicide. When he visited the cement factory, it dawned on me: Couldn't he just set up a grave there and have the machinery inadvertently bury him? Why bring another person into the mix if you truly wanted to take your life and their actions could counteract this?
This movie is just so rich in context and scenario
Bill - Fantastic analysis! I have never seen a movie about ending life be so poetic and a beautiful reflection on why it’s important to live and enjoy every moment of the time we are given on this planet. It’s been a tough few years for many but a movie like Taste of Cherry can give us all a sense of purpose and meaning. Keep these reviews coming! Anything you can reflect on by Kierslowsky would be fantastic. He and Abbas are masterful! Thanks for sharing this with us. Cheers!
Don’t hate me for this, but I’ve yet to see a Kieślowski film 😫. Which would you recommend starting with?
No worries at all. I recently just got into his films. I started with The Three Colors trilogy probably can’t go wrong with Blue or Red. White is good but doesn’t hold up to the others in my opinion. Hope you enjoy it!
Thank you for making this video. Taste of Cherry is one of my all-time favorite films
I was on the fence about buying this movie, but I've now added it to my wish list - and it might be the next film I get! Would you be averse to reviewing Come and See? I've yet to see it, but I've heard some very dark and disturbing (and also amazing) things..
I’d love to tackle Come and See someday. However, I’ve seen lots of people already do amazing videos on it. Maybe I’ll make a video on it once I’ve garnered the right community mindset. Thanks for watching, Christina!
This was an OUTSTANDING movie. Thank for a very heartfelt review of it. I am moved by this movie every time I watch it. But your review of it brought tears to my eyes as well.
the taste of cheery was not sweet enough for mr.badi as compared to the taste of mulberry that the old man had eaten
I recently watched the movie and I exactly felt the same thing you describe here.
Great write up on my favourite film. Earned yourself a subscriber
Idk how you showed up in my recommended videos, but continue doing what you're doing!

THE TASTE OF CHERRY wasnt sweet enough for mr.badi which we see the tree besides his graveyard as compared to the TASTE OF MULBERRY which that old man ate......and nature drowned him in his graveyard
