Sooteh-Delan

Sooteh-Delan is a work in which a human soul is breathed in sequence; How can one forget the sequence of the arrival of Aqdas for the first time in the house of the potters? How can you sit down and not tremble with the plan to expose the paralysis of the cinema ticket girl that Majid Del owes to her? And how can we see this amount of delicacy and color in the creation of characters and not say hello?

The point that has made Sooteh-Delan one of the few films of my life in Iranian cinema and I have had the experience of watching it dozens of times under various pretexts lies in the fact that this unique work is merely an important and important cinematic work. It is not considered, but from somewhere, I consider him as a living being who, after nearly forty years since its creation, still stands up and makes his audience love him like the central drama of the work.

First I watched this movie when I was about 10 years old. After watching again after about 12 years I see that I understood nothing that time. I just remembered some scenes also I knew how it would end.

We can see a lot about Persian traditions in this movie like other works of Ali Hatami. Old houses and families live together. And also couples who eat food in the same plate. I don't think anybody live like this in Iran now. Behrouz Vosoughi was amazing. A different act as a crazy brother. Scenes where he is talking to himself are great.

Great Dialogues is an important characteristics of Hatami's movies. I love dialogs of this movie.

Ali Hatami's masterpiece is arguably one of the best Persian movies ever made. A dramatic love story which is beautifully tied with cultural, traditional and religious aspects of Iranian's lifestyle in that era of time. All the roles are played beautifully and the dialogues carry a hidden poetry which I doubt if any sub or dubbing can deliver the delicacy.
