An excellent, painstakingly slow, unveiling of dysfunctional characters and their relationships, where no one escapes unscathed. In spite of a few minor lapses, the script, directing and acting are impeccable. My guess is that anyone over 40 has suffered a relationship with some of these people. I like that Farhadi made no attempt at resolution. In life, there not be. I was completely exhausted by the time the 130 minutes was over.
