Movie #599 "A Separation" is the academy award winner for best foreign language film ( in persian). A wonderful film that grips you from the opening dialogue through until the end. Its script is very tight and was deservedly nominated for an AA there, as well. The actors all fit their parts and beautifully get across these terribly universal characters. Because of the way it ends, you will be talking about this one, I guarantee it! Totally enthralling from opening to closing, and several times I found myself gasping at what was happening on the scream. It really opens the Iranian society a little bit more to us. Don't miss this! It could be the best film of 2011.
I rated this 5 stars out of 5
