"About Elly", the latest Asghar Farhadi's movie is something different for today's Iranian movie. In "About Elly" Farhadi is at his best. After directing "Chaharshanbe-soori" (his another amazing movie) and having some amazing works such as writing a screenplay for his wife's "Dayereh-e zangi" and Mani Haghighi's "Canaan", he returned with "Darbareye Elly", not a different movie, but his best!

"About Elly" is not just a drama movie. It's a great psychological thriller. It's a great journey throuth the layers of human's morality. The bitterness of movie's story and that shocking ending never leave you, hours after when you finished the movie. All actors/actresses actings are phenomenal. They are all at their best. Specially Peiman Moaadi (as Peyman) at his debut movie as an actor, is so brilliant. "About Elly" has no soundtrack but ambient sounds and the great usage of sea tides sounds. Movie recieved so many positive reviews along with some negative ones. This movie won
4 Major awards and 1 nomination.
With this movie, Asghar Farhadi fixed his position as one of the best Iranian directors of all time. also "About Elly" is one of (if not the best) Iranian best movie to date. Farhadi and his brand new movie brought a new breath, and started a new wave of filmmaking in Iranian's film industry.
rate: 9.5/10
P.S.: look to the sea through the movie carefully. after one hour it becomes such a nightmare to look and stand by the sea!
