The color of paradise

[FoothillSmiles]

Wow what a film! Makes me cry every time!

[farhan2022]

many Iranian movies are nice, but the film is more than good..Beautiful

[ashishsapkal]

Its Metaphor of life.

[KweenBee37]

I loved this film so much I bought it. What a beautiful film! I cried my eyes out, I wanted to take Mohammad home and give him lots of cuddles. And, I never realised how stunningly beautiful Iran is. One of my favourite films.

[iman4251]

amazing movie ..

[namelessheadless]

This movie truly indicates that Hollywood in it's best form is nothing but a shitty machine which produces nonsense pictures!

[uploader5383]

[Aidinovic]

It's a very simple, elegant movie about different perceptions of the world and lives around us.

[bluquinso]

[danispace]

maravilloso !

[JustPassingBy2010]

I am 45 years old , and i cried last night ,many times , during watching and after . I am a father.

[mahsasam]

"Baran" is another of Majid Majidi's movies, If anybody is interested.

[mahsasam]

I love this movie. It is so artistic and well made. Beautiful!

[tookool4school]

This movie goes to show that sometimes the blind can see more than those with sight.

[QueenAdelaide79]

This film has always affected me very deeply. It always makes me cry, mostly because it is just so beautiful, so sad and yet so hopeful.

[RaxuserO01]

i so love movies like this. ive seen the children of heaven and it was fantastic. can anybody suggest any films like this? family type drama with morals. please reply.

[dhakagod]

well...same problem here...i have grown up seeing Irani films every saturday morning in our national telivision bangladesh...but didnt know their names...too bad...u kno..these guys are so good at making films that even their comedy films conveys a good moral message...

[bulletkidinca]

Avaze Gonjeshka

[londolce89]

@RaxuserO01

this movie called 'babam ve oglum' in english ' 'my father and my son' a great turkish movie. available with subtitles. it made me and so many people cry. i strongly recommend

[azmt131969]

this movie should be in every Church. mosque .temple.its tell the true story of the Relationship btween god and human

[corrincrellin]

The best movie I have ever felt.

[harpaak]

After watching this movie I realized what is the meaning of "Cinema"!

An absolute artwork

[gringo5866279]

i am looking forward to watch this movie coz this is from the director of chidren of heaven , it will also be great like that one but i hope it may not be tragic and sad.

If we watch movies in other languages it comes as an oppertunity to understand the culture and lives of other people.

[asemina2u]

" I will never forget that movie, it was sooo beautiful nd at the same time I cried so much...what a great movie like no other !!...

[vikbarcelos1970]

LOVE THIS MOVIE !!!

[Hilixy]

One of those movies that I didn't have to download the subtitle. :)

[obliviouspet]

On topic:

WOW, the cinematography alone blows you away.

And the story is absolutely astonishing.

Truly a jewel of a movie!

[zenztar]

i had no idea there was more to iran than women getting stoned to death for mere accusations of adultery from their husbands, people being hanged for homosexuality, women having no human rights whatsoever, and only exist as complete property of husbands/ brothers or fathers, whom are free to beat them, rape them or even kill them anytime they want to without facing any criminal persecution

[PersAmx2]

Though your sense of sarcasm is appreciated, it is also rather ignorant to paint a culture with 7000 years of history with a single stork of the brush based on some of the religious fanatics living there.

[obliviouspet]

Oh yes, the concept of stereotyping, generalising and spewing ignorant BS based on fox news and cnn propaganda truly appeals to me.

Where do i sign up?

Seriously, stick to watching transformers, schwarzenegger movies and porn. Your dull, simplistic, in-the-box american lazy mind cannot possibly understand the awesome contence of movies like this.

[sunnefoula7]

My favorite movie!!!

[syahilight]

i love this movie..

i love the ost of this movie....

i love iran too..:)

love all in iran...

[Jzeaser]

The only movie to ever make me cry.... ;~ I

Brilliant

[inombrable11975]

es una pelicula de verdad que te mueve los hilos mas insensibles del alma, considerom que realmente promueve una cultura de sensibilidad y deja de lado otras cintas que unicamente promueven la sensibiliteria

[cem9967]

super bir film, hele sonlari....cok begendim ve herkese tafsiye ederim....Its great movie and beutifull location

[AngCineLoquendo262]

Qué película más magnífica, es estupenda, me encanta, de las mejores películas iraníes que se han hecho :D

*****

[rahmatbaran]

this is not a movie this is a message,this is a education,everyone in this world should watch this movie to mould their character,Thanks Majid

[nofaithinobama]

I stopped reading the prior comments when all the ignorant people started calling each other names. real mature!

This movie is NOT the best movie ever made, but it does give another face to the real Iran--not the hype from the nutball media we have in this country--and is a beautiful movie that tells a complex story told with richness and depth, even though some of the symbolism is a little too obvious for me.

I'm glad I watched it!

[sonicview123]

:-)

[demerc]

Simply the finest film I've ever seen.

[barfmandude]

I have not seen alot of American movies that can have me in tears like this one. It will touch alot of people even though it is not an English movie. I hope alot of younger kids watch this movie becasue it can make alot of American kids a little wiser.

[barfmandude]

i think americans should watch this movie. this movie is so powerfull and shoes how great of a movie it really is.

[GuateVEGAN]

The main actor, the little boy, IS AMAZING!!

This movie is the only movie that's truly made me cry...

Everyone should watch this movie.

[SKOTP69]

@GuateVEGAN Another amazing film, in a similar vein, that truly made me cry, is The Buddha Collapsed Out Of Shame. With another child that takes you by the heart. Incredible as well, that both films are made in nations that were once populated entirely by Caucasians, and which were ruined by Arab/Muslim invasions, and later Arab/Turkic/Mongol miscegenation!

[TheRazecah]

@SKOTP69 stop being racist and btw arabs are caucasic u fucking ignorant

[SKOTP69]

@TheRazecah I utterly refute that weak phrase "racist", which is alway and only applied to Whites. When in fact there is far more coming from the others. ALL discussion of race is 'racist'! Some Arabs MIGHT be Caucasoid, but by and large Arabs are of course Semites. They are (no longer?) Caucasian, and they are not White. We Whites have far more in common with pure Iranians. Tell me what it is that you think I'm "ignoring"? Because I'm not ignoring a darn thing!

[TheRazecah]

@SKOTP69 i have white skin color in fact i look like a ghost with green hazel eyes and my parent are syrian arabs

[Bubbles0luv]

@GuateVEGAN This is the first movie I ever cried in. It wasn't just tears, it was BIG, sloppy uncontrollable sobs. It's a visually gorgeous, emotionally rich film.

[mackoy239]

La interprectacion de Mohsen Ramezani ( MOHAMMAD )es sencillamente insuperable, no le dieron un oscar a este muchacho que no tiene nada que envidiar a Dakota Fanning.?

[rinpoche100]

this movie touched me alot.. i felt glad to be alive.hats off to u,the director of this movie.

[bozium]

this was a beautiful movie . . . it made me cry.

[guirobles]

somebody knows the name of this great instrumental music that starts at 0:30??

I really need that..

[yigoalie]

such a stupid movie...

[0509P]

sorry but is not a stupid movie i think uu are the stupiiiddd hereee ;)

[emogoalie]

i think uu are the stupiiidd hereee

wow...i dont even think i need to reply to that....i dont think anything i could say could make you look more retarded

[0509P]

fuck uu babbe ;D

and i tellU agaiin thee movie iss great and not a stupid moviee

[emogoalie]

haha your even more mature and educated than the other people

good job

[0509P]

thanks?

[bita5447]

I am sure,that you need immediately a therapy (psychological).because if this movie have not touch your heart,so you are not a human! it is not a religious movie!!!it is just a conversation between human and his God!the God is not the same like in church or mosque.the director is trying to say,every body feels the God,bud not in the same way....or with the same instrument!

[emogoalie]

it didnt touch my entire classes heart, cuz its stupid

[corrincrellin]

The most beautiful movie i have ever seen...

[demerc]

Wow, I saw your comment after i posted basically the same one. It's nice to see someone else who was touched as much as me.This is as close to perfection as filmmaking can come in my opinion.

[corrincrellin]

I am glad to see so many people were touched by this movie...

It should be required viewing by officials in the US Government before making ANY decisions regarding Iran.

Just because the leaders of Iran are fools, doesn't mean there is an entire country that deserves to be suffer for their mistakes.

[ohworldgirl]

The visually beautiful and touching story is nothing short of poetry of love in motion. As I posted on another board, I can see this quality seems to run throughout the films in Iran. I urge everyone to see these films. Especially more of us in the US. Iran has offered a lot of beauty to the World in the form of film. Thank you to all the filmmakers in Iran who's work have been offerings of beauty and reflection, around the world. It's10 years since I first saw a film out of Iran called Leila.

[ohworldgirl]

I also find this film deeply moving and respectful in the beginning as the first Title says: In the Name of God

Then: The Color of Paradise

for me personally, that was so touching and deeply respectful as was this entire film which was a letter of thanks to the beauty that God has offered in the form of Nature and a blind boy who sees it. (Sorry to get all religious...)

[sinaxidin]

What u wrote doesn't have anything to do with religion, I truly admire what u understood from the movie :) It's BELIEVE... Believing the beauty, believing and embracing our moments to be alive, to observe.... , which Andrei Tarkovsky was always struggled to image.:)

[Misri83]

This is an underrated masterpiece.

One of the best films ever!

[Zhardi87]

What's the movie about? When did it came out?

[yigoalie]

Its about wasting two hours of your life...

It looks like it came out 20 years ago when they were still trying to figure out how to make a good movie

[myshkin]

A very great film. In the West is contrastingly produced arid, lifeless films, that don't understand the nature of film. The West's ( speaking in broad terms) films are not art. They do not exist within the autonomous language of film, for which to exist as art must intimately relate to awareness of the living moment. The living moment is a foreign element to the West's unreality, and so its filmic art not art at all. Functional, arid, lifeless.

[maryamrock]

heart breaking

[mrigzes]

one of the best movies ever made

[firuz1363]

i really like mr. majidi's films. about a month ago, i was his interpreter when he came to malaysia. during the 3 days with him, i learnt a lot. he even told me his experiences during the film making. he is very kind hearted man and humble. i hope i will work for him again in the future. be omide didar, aghaye majidi!

[BellamentePensativo]

When I first laid my eyes on this film one spring morning of '04 I realized how wonderful good filmmaking could become. Seeing this humble boy and his troubled father struggle with life as they had it, without direction, later finding eachother at a crossroads in a sad ending, was so moving. In the end, the film is able to remind that life is purposeful however challenging, when though being blind we seek to find the colors of God's paradise.

[CarlosHarrison2]

Poético e lindo!

[2031977]

its probably the most beautiful movie i've ever seen. it touches your heart like no other movie has or ever can.

[renewenergy]

Oh my God¡¡....What a beautiful movie, amazing work Mr.Majidi...Once again i felt in love with your films, so delicate, so deep, so innocent.........tears come out. Thanks¡¡

[soheila2155]

this is on of the great movie i have ever seen.emogoalie may i ask you where you located?i never saw a cruel person like you before!!!!

[emogoalie]

haha well ill admit it has its uses....from a comedic view its very useful...laughing at the kid always makes for great entertainment

[exminoltauser]

You are a moron and unfortunately always will be. See, it's not your own fault. Intelligence is genetic and also learned.Born from mediocre defective genes, one turns out to be a stupid pest like yourself. Incapable of understanding even the simplest and purest form of humanity. You will never understand this movie or anything else like it in life, because you don't have the brain to absorb it. That is why they make movies like The Jackass. It's for people like you.That's all you'll understand.

[emogoalie]

lmao haha genetics...my mom is a doctor and my dad is a university professor

and your genetics would be....

[exminoltauser]

you must be adopted. Your adopted parents failed miserably in raising you. They either neglected teaching you the basics or they gave up on you, realizing your mental limitations. Poor doc. and Prof. are stuck with a pest.

[emogoalie]

ya i must be adopted, my parents must have adopted me and all eight of my other siblings...

[saharbamo]

ok what about ur self what areu?an idiot

[tahar111]

please, put all the movie,if you can. i like it very much.

[ewlalah]

I saw the film just yesterday and it was deeply moving and touching. The boy who played the character of Mohd, Performed fantastically. The ending had me in tears!

[dherrera1214]

A poetic film.

Majidi is a genuine human being.

[elchavojuan]

There are some people who has not feelings, who cant get the true how is it, maybe cos u arent blind, When u are child even if u are glad, u talk to animals,trees, etc, even if u see it,..but that boy cant. So why he cant, why we cant?..emogoalie u have problems wirh urself...God bless you ..

[emogoalie]

God bless me?

[emogoalie]

theres one part i like tho, when hes talking to the birds, that makes me laugh, does he think hes a seagul? or maybe he thinks hes a fish, hmm i wonder....i wonder if hes on crack

[pengwenwork]

emogoalie: okay, i read more of your comments and now i get it. you're just a narrow-minded uncultured asshole. and so what if the kid was supposed to be autistic? see, you think you are so smart when everything you say just proves how little you know about people who are blind or autistic or whatever. i really hope you grow up.

[emogoalie]

"asshole"

ya ur pretty cultured too

[emogoalie]

this is the worst movie ive ever seen

[pengwenwork]

emogoalie:

i'm curious, why is this the worst movie youve ever seen?

[loginlogoff]

i love this movie

[carloncho73]

this movie is 100% art. emogoalie probably likes robocop or spiderman, anyways, every detail of this movie is perfect. and the final message is good too. i love this movie.

[Setoreeh]

I'm half mexican, half iranian, here in México is soooooooo strange 4 them to pass one Iranian movie, but I jummped to the cinema when I knew there was one, few years a go, but I still remember, My God, I loved this movie, it made me cry so bad, it is such a touching story, really, MashaAllah, and thank you so very much for sharing this vid... have a wonderful day!!! Att : Pari (F)

[Krittikas]

Enjoyed watching this and the one called Halpern-Paradise... Can't wait to see the full film.

[sonicview123]

If you fancy a complete change to the usual dross that's churned out from Hollywood, then you can't go far wrong with this film.

This film will leave you questioning the usual media stereotypes.

A carefull insight into the world of Mohammed a blind schoolboy who can read in braille the secrets that nature has to hold.

This boy will be with you for some time.

[sonicview123]

I guess everyone is entitled to their own opinion about this film.

Thanks all for posting :o)

[Tatlises1955]

People if u r stupid & have animal brain please don't write your fucking comments here ... go fuck yourselves better than criticizing this wonderfull amazing movie

You r sick people

[emogoalie]

this is the gayest movie ever, the frikin kids like autistic!

[kxmode]

he's blind, but you would of course know that if you actually saw it.

[emogoalie]

ya i did see it, i know hes blind. he acts like hes mantally retarded too tho, just watch him talking to the birds, thats not normal, this movies gotta be one of the worst ive ever seen

[kxmode]

you have a small mind

[emogoalie]

ya ok me and my whole grade, we were all forced to watch it for class, not even one person thought it was good, we all hated it, its such a stupid movie, i was cheering for the dad to get the boy, and so was everyone else

[kxmode]

"me and my whole grade"

"class"

"stupid movie"

I rest my case...

[emogoalie]

this is a stupid movie, give me 5 reasons y you like it

[elchavojuan]

u didnt have childhood or u were raped man ..

[jaguaraliado]

One of the best movies ever made...I still don't understand why not much people don't know about this movie.

[teshkow]

you should watch Turtles can Fly by Bahman Ghobadi. It makes the colour of paradise seem like a student film

[jaguaraliado]

one of the best movies ever made...

[weirdopers0n]

this movie is one of the best and saddest movies i have ever seen

[DannaLambieL]

=(

[DudeYouRoxMySox]

Majid Majidi is an amazing film maker. More people should see his film.

[tom500k]

If enough Americans saw this file: "The Color of Paadise", then a war against the people of Iran would be thrown off the take by a aroused U.S. citizens.

This amazing film shows that we all have so much more that unites us than separates us.

[kxmode]

agreed. when i first saw it i thought it was filmed in europe. all of the scenery is filmed in northern iran. most of the people iran want what you and i and anyone else: good family, jobs, religion, and so forth.

[ballsymove1977]

Quite possibly one of the finest motion pictures ever made. *Ever*. In *any* language.

[demerc]

I agree! I'll go one step further snd say that it is! No other movie ever touched me so much.

[sonicview123]

So...?
