Why the FUCK did this movie win the oscar for best foreign language film?

Gonna go out on a limb here and assume you haven't watched it and you're just mad that an Iranian film would have the temerity to win an award at some shitty awards show.

Prove me wrong.

well hey man it's pretty good

watch the film faggot. you will get to know

do you even have to ask?

>the guy who said he wasnt coming to the oscars to protest trump.

Haven't seen it yet since I'm waiting on the bluray, but it's from a well regarded director. Wasn't remotely surprised.

Soo.. Drumpf
Its mediocre.
Just won to fit there narrative that they aren't racist and so progressive

Tony Erdmann should've won

My favorite foreign film from 2016.

It's good. Asghar Farhadi is a good director.

That said, A Separation was way better

Toni Erdmann was robbed

once asghar farhadi said wasn't going to the oscars, it was his to win.

Is it better than The Past? I loved A Separation but was bored out of my mind with The Past.

What did he even protest? The travel ban was removed after a few days.

TRUMPF LMAO

A Separation > About Elly = The Salesman > The Past, in my opinion.
I also didn't like The Past as much as his others

Good taste

idk, did you hear the note the woman read though? It was just incoherent anti-American rambling and it's obvious why they picked it to win the oscar

that movie was fucking trash and the old dude is anoying as fuck. "Boo hoo are you happy?"

so was she raped or not?

agreed, this was alright but nowhere near A Separation

I really wasn't sure what to make of the male lead in this, he's kind of an asshole. Was he supposed to be a parallel to Willy Loman?

>all year toni erdmann was the front runner even before the nominations came out
>travel ban happens
>

well atleast it didn't cause Silent Nights to win best short, god what a piece of crap that was

I liked it better than the Separation tbqh. The last act was really tense. Also the parallels between the main story and "Death of a Salesman" were pretty cool.

What was the deal with him being such a dick to that student of his?

>Rana will never help you to pee

It's not fair
