Review of Secret Ballot

Secret Ballot (2001)
10/10
A wonderful Vacation from Hollywood
29 December 2011
This movie is a Jewel, some won't get it and that is their loss. It is thought provoking, every scene is a unique canvas painted with the realism of common people who, like people all over the world have their own problems and must make decisions on priorities. The contrast between the two Characters is so NON Hollywood. A simple soldier that is going to be taught and have his world expanded. A young woman who is educated, and believes in the process of elections, is the election agent her job is to collect votes, qualified and valid votes. Simple right? Wrong, she is also going to learn also. The great thing I loved about this movie is the extreme effort they ( the Iranian government) made to collect these votes from this extremely remote and isolated island. This is a must see movie for anyone interested in learning about the Iran, the people and especially the culture. WELL DONE. You could never go on a trip there and see what you see in this movie. This movie has so much love in it; the work is a master piece, of observation without getting in the way or polluting the subject matter. I would love to own their car, even without a windshield.
