Leila Hatami Among 25 Best Female Movie Performances of the 21st Century
Independent Aggregator of Iran-related News/Events, Kodoom.com: The Indie Wire's list of 25 Best Female Movie Performances of the 21st Century, published in 2017, included a diverse group of actresses, from Oscar winners to the frightfully snubbed, comedic high-wire acts to the most hard-hitting of dramas, and everything in between.
The curated list includes Bjork, Laura Linney, and Charlize Theron as well as Iran's Leila Hatami for her powerful performance in Asghar Farhadi's award-winning film A Separation: "Hatami gives the movie a commanding center as a determined woman keen on taking control of her surroundings even as they slowly close in on her."
