A restless sweet romance: "Path of love seemed easy at first, what came was many hardships"

[pgholinejad · 7/10 · 27 October 2023]

Conjugal Visit is a real restless sweet love story that portrays the boundary between freedom and liberality, that conscience is the most valuable essence of the nature of human being and how love can affect the wills and manners of people , a story on trust , commitment and self-sacrifice.

The acting and cinematography are at a great level especially Parinaz Izadyar and the chemistry of the main actor and actress is real. The movie starts slow at first but gradually absorbs the audience in it and the happy ending is what the audience seek to leave the theaters happily, although I myself liked it to end other way(for instance it was more dramatic and theatrical to end where the young boy wrecked Farhad's car). The weak point of the movie to point out is the unacceptable reason for Farhad's confinement as we get to know Farhad's character. In one sentence we can describe the movie as our great poet Hafez said: "Path of love seemed easy at first, what came was many hardships"

It is a social and painful film

The movie is produced in 2022. Parinaz Izdiyar has acted flawlessly like most of the movies I have seen of him recently. This movie reminds me of the movie "Bone Marrow" more than anything else. The tying and unraveling of the knots of the story happens gradually and during the story, and everything is not clear from the beginning. It seems that Parinaz Izdiyar has taken a strong step in Iranian cinema and has now become one of the most important Iranian actresses. Hooten Shakiba had a good game as always and has handled the role. It is a social and painful film, but the story is so well written that it keeps the audience with it until the end of the film.

One day in the bondage of love is better than years of freedom

[Ehsan_Alikhani · 10/10 · 1 November 2023]

Unlike other Iranian films that I have seen in the last year, the film does not become boring. Although the time of the movie is two hours, and from the beginning of the movie you can guess what the story is going to be, but it remains unpredictable until the last moment. The good acting of Parinaz and Hutan, the good chemistry between them, made a film that neither indulged in its romance nor in its excitement and apprehension. The movie does not have unnecessary scenes, the amateur actors play their roles well, but I wish Iman would have acted better. The toilet sequence was great. After Farhad's freedom, each sequence adds a point to the film to reach the beautiful and sad message of the end of the film. The editing, lighting, and music of the film are all well organized and complete the product.

it was great

It is a movie about incarcerated individuals who, like anyone in prison, appear unhappy with their situation. However, in my opinion, this movie goes beyond the cliché portrayal of jail life. It also delves into the theme of love. The message conveyed is that love has the power to heal all wounds, and I must admit that this message is effectively portrayed. I was captivated by the lead actors' performances; they were truly fantastic, as they conveyed their emotions through their eyes. Their chemistry was also commendable. The cinematography and music were of high quality, surpassing many other Iranian movies. The memorable scenes and the beautiful soundtrack stayed with me long after watching. Overall, I highly recommend this movie. I personally liked it and hope that everyone gets a chance to watch it. Thank you to all the filmmakers involved in creating one of my favorite movies and for providing me with such enjoyable moments.
