Looks like Close-up by Abbas Kiarostami, doesn't it?


The plot seems like Close-up (Namaaye-Nazdik) by Abbas Kiarostami, doesn't it?

I was just about to post that.

However, I'd imagine this film has different ambitions than Close-Up. I like Close-Up quite a bit, but I thought Kiarostami bettered himself slightly in exploring fact, documentation and truth in Ten compared to the similar Close-Up. He did much better with Taste Of Cherry, which is a perfect example of his notion of Unfinished Cinema.

I thinks as weel that Taste of Cherry is the best Kiarostami's.. but I'd rather wait to see Colour me Kubrick before doing any parralel.
