Review of The Color of Paradise (1999) by Susan M — 02 Oct 2009
I guess it's one of those films that ultimately makes you a better person in the end. Mohammad is really blind, so none of that fake Hollywood stuff; yet puts up a performance that eclipses most professional actors.
The fact that alot of Iranian directors use non professional actor is not because of budget reasons, but because they want to close the boundary between reality and the "smoke and mirror" part of film. They really want you to feel for the character.
In the end you will see how any human being can change for the better.
