President Donald Trump‘s “Muslim Ban” enacted on Friday could prevent Iranian director Asghar Farhadi from attending this year’s Oscars — where his film, The Salesman, is nominated for Best Foreign Language Film...The Salesman follows a high school teacher (Shahab Hosseini) who seeks revenge against a perpetrator who broke into his apartment and attacked his wife (Taraneh Alidoosti)... In 2012 Farhadi was named one of Time‘s 100 Most Influential People in the World.

Yup.
>>Let’s move...<<
And give any Hollywood person expedited an expediated citizenship renunciation process so they can ALL attend the festivities.
I hope it will still be broadcast. I’d almost pay-per-view to see the Iranian authorities respond to the red carpet part.
There’s no banning of art, just people.
And I care why?
So this Fubar can’t attend though his history is known?
Take a flying f___ at a rolling donut.
It would be an insult to the people of Iran if we didn’t demand a plane loaded with $100 million in cash as ransom for any Iranian caught on a soil, before releasing him. As, why shouldn’t we consider them equals to us?
When we get the $400 million back we paid for our four people, we could then reconsider the visa policy.
Don’t they have FedEx in Iran?
unrealistic propaganda movie...
if she was raped she gets stoned to death...
and the rapist gets away with his crime...
apparently he didn’t show that part of Iranian real life.....
so its no loss that this guy might not get to come to the US..
But HEY !!!
showing the moslems as rapists is real...
so maybe there is a redeeming tiny bit or two in that movie after all...
was the wife played by a German woman ???
he doesn’t have to be here to win...they can send him the Oscar and save on pollution...
win win for the Lefties...
:)
Who?
BUT!...He might just make a movie that would cause Episcopalians around the world to go ballistic, and start rioting and killing people!
Yepper - gonna try to get the "I'm a victim, pity me" votes.
Oh, yeah, the Oscars. That’s when Hollywood people arrive in limousines 20 feet long, step out wearing a dress they paid $20,000 for and while wearing jewelry they paid $1,000,000 for, then go in and bash red-state people for using too much of the world’s recourses.
Asghar Farhadi film, The Salesman, is nominated for Best Foreign Language Film...
I believe this is the same category as the latest “Dora the Explorer” movie.
Osghar cannot pick up his Oscar. Nice rhyme.
So what. Roman Polanski couldn’t attend the Oscars either. Who cares?
Dear Asghar,
Just Skype it, dude. You would have only needed to be there for a couple hours, anyway.
