Taste of Cherry, A
Iran 1997, 98 minutes
Dir. Abbas Kiarostami
In Farsi with English subtitles

Aroview: Kiarostami's Palme D'Or winner follows the 'last rites' of an affluent, suicidal middle-aged man who scours the streets of Teheran for an 'assistant'. Behind its contemplative, fable-like structure is a multi-faceted work that will reward viewers of a philosophical bent.

1 star (Turkey) A dull and painful slump through one man's depression and lack of will to live. Not worth losing your own over. ~Tom H
3 stars (Good Enough) An intelligent rather than an entertaining screenplay. Not the Director's best but worth a look. ~Tubbs
3 stars (Good Enough) I liked it. Humour so low-key that if you blink you miss it. Louis Armstrong, for gosh sakes! ~Shorty
