Review of Today

Today (2014)
10/10
Great foreign movie
15 February 2015
Warning: Spoilers
This was my first ever Persian film, and it was great. One of those slow-moving, pensive, quiet movies. A serious type of movie without too much humor, but still good. The characters are lovable, each in their own way. The cab driver is a very stern man, a man of very few words. This can be frustrating at times, as the movie doesn't often reveal how he feels or what he thinks. Essentially he ends up with a pregnant woman in his cab, whom he takes to the hospital. Once there, they think he is her husband. He is conflicted between admitting that he's not her husband, and lying that he is. The movie centers around this conflict. Apparently, the woman got pregnant outside her marriage.
