Shirin (2009)

A hundred and fourteen famous Iranian theater and cinema actresses and a French star: mute spectators at a theatrical representation of Khosrow and Shirin, a Persian poem from the twelfth century, put on stage by Kiarostami. The development of the text -- long a favorite in Persia and the Middle East -- remains invisible to the viewer of the film, the whole story is told by the faces of the women watching the show.

The melodramatic, passionate "Shirin" story drives everything forward, and gazing at the faces of these amazing women can be a compelling experience in itself.

Watching a movie in a movie theater is an act of collective loneliness. Shirin makes that loneliness cathartic, but by not showing the film within the film, Kiarostami avoids transforming it into entertainment.

This was an absolutely shockingly bad film. It was an hour and a half of sitting in a cinema watching a load of women sitting in cinema watching a film. The fact that you didn't see the actual film seemed to be an un successful attempt at distracting you from the weak plotline. One to avoid

90 Minuten, 115 Gesichter: SHIRIN mutet an wie Kiarostamis bÃ¶se Parodie auf all die einstigen Regiemekritiker vorwiegend des asiatischen Kinos, die mit groÃ?en, aufwendigen Nationalepen zu staatstragenden Filmemachern avancierten. Auch SHIRIN erzÃ¤hlt einen Urmythos der persischen Kultur - allerdings ganz ohne groÃ?e Bilder und Pomp. Statt den groÃ?en, pathetischen Film zu sehen, bekommen wir Bilder von Frauen, die sich ebendiesen (nie gedrehten) Film anschauen. 90 Minuten lang. Nichts anderes. Aus seiner radikalen Verweigerungshaltung heraus wird er dabei zur durchaus ambivalenten Reflexion auf das Kino, seine Illusionismen und seinen seduktiven Charakter.

Incredible idea for a movie. Watched the first 10 minutes, which probably sufficed - this is one of those brilliant projects that I think might function as well as a review by Borges of a nonexistent movie as as a movie. Of course, understanding Persian instead of having to read subtitles would undoubtedly change the experience, and I suppose if the story is one every one in the intended audience already knows, that changes things entirely. Wish I could be Persian, to appreciate it the way it was intended; next-best option would be a "cultural translation," but I don't even want to think about what that would be for American culture.
