91Suleiman's most poignant moments are largely wordless. Nothing feels more affecting than Suleiman's ubiquitous frozen stare. Although he never utters a sound, his silence speaks volumes about the inability to resolve the social ramifications of Middle Eastern strife.
-
80The Time That Remains has the scope of a historical epic with none of the expected heaviness.

80This is typical Suleiman, as anyone who saw his no less wondrous work "Divine Intervention" (2002), can testify.

58At best, his poker-faced vignettes nail the icy comedy of war: A man chats on his cell phone, unworried about a tank targeting him a few feet away. At worst, they're totally opaque and unmoving.
