the rating shows 5 but it is just wrong. this movie fits no rating system, and or movie criteria. it is there to stay for another 100000years. timeless, full of ideas, and a most original story ever told in the history of mankind. anthony quinn never looked more at ease. directorial could have not been more onto the dot. cinematography is brilliant. the design opens new perspectives. a movie and a story that made shokof a name to join the list of eternals. shokof belongs to a free world and his films are certainly not restricted to any nation.however, being an Iranian and making films as he does should be a turning point for all those who think arts are restricted to vicinities. wrong. it is not. the true artist creates works of art (and seven servants is one work of art of the highest order) for eternity. this one equals to all those who have been amongst us and have left such works behind. i do hope IMDb corrects the RATINGS on Seven Servants. another 10 from me for this great contribution to the humanity and the arts.

somqing is short and thank god for being only that short of a film. it is deliberate and annoying, funny, superstitious, and fantasy like as well,but all together it is to show how smoking can defuse, confuse, and regardless of how the acting can be, to prove that some movies, are still run by the signature, will, perspectives, and know how of the Director.Daryush Shokof is a shining example of an artist is all about regardless of his origin.he is not only making movies free of all Iranian usual, boring perspectives, constructions, limitations, conservatism, but also turns the heads round for the most free societies in the world by being original, and unique in handling the making of his films. his signature is now perhaps one of the most vivid in the whole industry. i loved the whole construction of the film and how he first time actress got to look good through creative edits and more creative use of lighting which has become identified with Shokof "using one source of light,and let it in the hands of the main character". a 10. great .just overwhelmingly satisfying the purpose of making a film about the terrible habit of smoking. by the way I, too do not understand the rating system either. isn't this movie 9 over all rating?rather than 4?!!
