  • Really wasn't worth all the lives lost in the end , now was it?

  • Ooh but if the the woman was a mexican or black chick, this wouldnt be a movie

  • bloody hell this trailer shows the white guys as the good guys

  • very sad movie, im persian aswell

  • Nice film !

  • @Urdupal i agree...

  • Sickening and everything thats wrong with America today, especially this last 4 years.

    If this ever happened to me or anyone in my family, I'd go on a spree.

  • GGAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYY

  • @february86 is that an insult or a compliment?

  • I thought the mother and son were good people but Ben Kingsley's character is SATAN!

  • Great story, sad sad ending.

  • Quiet boring, but it has powerfull scenes and story. I cried too.

  • Beauuuutiful film... Te mooi.

  • i cried

  • this better be good coz im about to watch it :P

  • @TheGuitarfreak696 samesies :)

  • 1:23 >:[

  • I fucking love Jennifer Connelly. Drop dead gorgeous woman and a great actress. This movie is another one of her bests.

  • this movie fucking pissess me off. it totally makes persians seem like evil people, when in fact its quite the contrary

  • @shabehpersia21 What? If anything it portrays them as a generally dignified people and that, as an individual, he was capable of mistakes like any other human being.

  • @RagdollDude then why choose an iranian family? the fact of the matter is, the majority of american society has a negative view towards iran and a film like this only exasterbates it.

  • @shabehpersia21

    Why not an Iranian? What nationality should he have been?

  • @EuphrasieF a nationality other than a middle eastern one.

  • @shabehpersia21 no it exposes it, makes us aware of this negative view

  • @shabehpersia21 Really? I watched this film and thought the Iranian family were the good guys...

  • @shabehpersia21 How? I did not get that at all...

  • on tonight on BBC1 .. enjoy :)

    excellent movie !!!

  • cool movie

  • Jennifer Connelly is a brilliant actress. I really like her calmness. She delivers her emotions perfectly well, very effortless. She's also one of the most beautiful actresses I've seen in Hollywood. I really wish she will win even just one Oscars or Golden Globe best actress award. She totally deserves it!

  • @nikkijaneallison She has won an oscar for A Beautiful Mind in 2002, though I think she totally deserved something for this movie as well. House of Sand and Fog was amazing.

  • This should've gotten nomminated for 9 oscars and won 5 including best picture.

  • I just read this entire book and googled it to see what reviews it got. I had no idea it was made into a movie. I'm stoked to watch it now! :]

  • It's a great movie...Fuck the oscars...Movies like this are rare...Great direction,Great portrayals of the characters by Sir Kingsley and Jennifer Connelly...!!

  • shohre aghdashlo I LOOOOOOOOOOOVE U

    

  • most underrated movie

  • JEnnifer in this movie... absolutely BRILLIANT

    Masterpiece movie

  • This movie has some heart wrenching scenes that make you believe that they are not acting. It just gets under your skin.

    Jennifer Connelly is just amazingly convincing. I doubt that any other actress would've done better.

  • does anyone know the piece of music at 2:01?

  • @jammyham Yeah, it's called "Broken" and it's from the soundtrack of the movie "The Insider"

  • @redcorvette111 thanks, been looking for it for ages!

  • I watched this yesterday, I wasn't expecting too much. But wow, definetley one of the best movies I have ever seen. The coflicted emotions it makes you feel, is really overwhelming.

    And silly me watched whilst getting ready to go out, needless to say I had to do my eye make up again lol.

    I suggest you all watch this masterpiece :)

  • "I have taken us so far off our course, but now it is time to return... It is time for us to go home, to our destiny."

    I haven't seen such an wonderful movie like House of Sand and Fog...

  • Kingsley is mind blowing in this- there's just no way he should have lost that oscar- easily the best performace of the year. This movie is worth watching just for the acting alone.

  • @ENDO470,

    Dude, he had to go up against Sean Penn for his performance in Mystic River. That was an almost perfect performance of a father whose losing sanity after the loss of his daughter.

  • @thelupoistheman1 Dude, Sean Penn was up against Sir Ben Kingsley in HOSAF. That was an almost perfect performance of a father losing sanity after the loss of his son...........................­..........

  • @ENDO470,

    Yeah, but that was at the end of the film. Sean Penn's insanity crisis was near the end of the First Act.

  • No hazemweb4 it's not at all like your problem in Palestine, it's an American problem of buerocratic incompetence and a hatred against foreigners who came here legally.

  • I first read the book and was totally blown away by how well it was written, I didn't want it to end. Now that I have seen the trailer of the movie and notced that they added some sex scenes, I'm hesitant of wanting to see it and only to erase the good memory I have from the book.

    Here is this proud Iranian father who had fled with his family to the US following the deposing of the Shah. He bought a house at auction because the previous owner hadn't paid her property taxes. Excellent story.

  • I will try to find this movie and see it b/c from the trialer it's looks like our problem in Palestine, how the jowesh come from europ and USA and russa and take our land, but meybe the the different that he pay money for the hous, and in Palestine UK take it from us and gave it to jowesh :(

  • @hazemweb u should be compensated, but that was their land, taken from them in the same way; or worse. It is God's mandate for Israel to be populated with Jews.

  • @666cl53 Yeah this is a very good dramatic piece. Solid drama acting.

  • @666cl53 "Kill yourself and make the world a better place"? Over a click of a button? I know it's a good movie, but what is your major malfunction?

  • @666cl53

    that's fucking immature,why do you care about about that one dislike, a stupid virtual insignificant thing like that??? i like the movie and i'll press "dislike" just to show you i don't give a fuck about youtube buttons ,you know....CUZ I "IS" LIKE THAT,WACHAGONNADO ! i just hope you'll not kill yourself just because the video will now have 2 dislikes,you stupid immature fool

  • @MySweetSeoul Press whatever you want, cock sucker, see if I give a shit :)

  • @666cl53

  • @MySweetSeoul Wow, you the man! How old are you, like, 5? Dumb brat lol

  • @666cl53

    facts still remain though : you're the one who got angry about a fucking virtual dislike button ,don't blame me for your immaturity ok pal ?
