"Color" Commentary

Date of Review:  May 8, 2002
The Bottom Line: A noble effort, beautifully photographed and rich in detail, that fails to add up.
Review: The sharp reds, stirring yellows and thick blues thrive on the screen in Majid Majidi's "The Color of Paradise."

The hills are truly alive underneath the children's feet, as they skim through the trembling fields.

The problem...

Not 'Paradise', but often colorful enough

Date of Review:  Apr 7, 2000
Review: Like his crowdpleasing Children of Heaven, the latest from Iranian writer-director Majid Majidi is also a tribute to the spirit and innocence of a child. Here, the subject is a smart blind boy named Mohammed (Mohsen Ramezani, superb), who is...

Colorless

Date of Review:  Apr 7, 2000
Review: Readers of this page know that I am a rabid fan of Iranian cinema. Most of the Iranian films I?ve seen so far have all been privileged moments for me--moments in time that have changed my life. Majid Majidi?s ?The Color of Paradise? (originally...

Not Quite Paradise

Date of Review:  May 3, 2000
Review: I attended a sneak preview to see what was billed as a family movie with subtitles. The movie is a heartbreaker and the story of a father in despair with a blind son who sees more than he can - is hard to take. The boy is sent away to a school for...

A Movie Worth Seeing

Date of Review:  Sep 1, 2000
Review: My wife and I saw "The Color of Paradise" at our local foreign-independent-off-beat movie complex, the Liittle Theatres. We only knew that it was an Iranian film, and was about a blind boy.

A Paradise of Color, Compassion and Sound.

Date of Review:  Oct 5, 2000
Review: You may find it difficult to rent a quiet, deceptively simple film about a few months in the life of a blind boy?but overcome your resistance and treat yourself to one of the finest films of the year.. A gem. And one of the most beautiful looking...
