No snarky tagline, cuz its just that good.
Nominated for:
Best original screenplay - Asghar Farhadi
Also nominated for:
Best foreign language film (Iran)
What can I say about this film? That the acting is flawless? That the writing flawless? That the composition is flawless? That the story has every opportunity to fall into a melodramatic, stereotypical portrayal of Iranian culture, but instead honours the integrity of its characters and maintains their humanity? That it's really freakin' good?
Yeah, I can say all of that. So I will. Just rephrase all that stuff as statements instead of questions.

PS - Though I'm really routing for Kristen Wiig to win for Best Original Screenplay, I wouldn't be surprised if Asghar Farhadi causes an upset and wins instead.
