100Iran's greatest filmmaker is fond of stripping personalities bare through conversations they have while riding in cars. Here he pushes his favorite dramatic device to its limit.
-
100A minimalist film, Ten looks and feels like a documentary. At the end, there is no big denouement, but a profound realization that the people we see on camera are all aching for answers -- and struggling to come to terms with their lives.
-
80Inexpensively shot on digital video, it's an invaluable work of art.

50The shame is that more accessible Iranian directors are being neglected in the overpraise of Kiarostami.
