Four titles out of almost 400,000, wow. That is definitely worth it. You are also perhaps the only user, or at best one of a handful. Use Other FH.

There's actually many native Iranian films and DVD's out there. You won't see the majority of them in the western world of course, but they do exist. I even recently saw a new release on the shelf in Blockbuster for an Iranian film. Now whether or not many people in the Profiler community actually own them is another matter.

I agree, Kiarostami is a very popular director and I think there are even two of his movies in the Criterion Collection. IMHO every country that has a movie worth being included in either the CC or Masters of Cinema should be available as an option in profiler

Yes indeed, his 1997 film Taste of Cherry got a Criterion release. I completely forgot that I've even seen that one before, and it's quite a good film!

That's one "true american" view of life. How many countries called "other" are on your globe?    (Warning: sarkasm, no offense to all our open-minded US-Profilers    )

Everybody has the right to make a feature request, and adding a COUNTRY is IMHO a valid one, since he is not asking for adding some little huts called "Bimbambulu" in the deepest jungle.

True American? I resent that prejudicial remark.

As a "True American", I have no problem what-so-ever with the OPs request.

I have several films produced in Iran (Kandahar comes to mind).

I see absolutely no reason not to add it to the system.

Ouch...  from wiki - Sarcasm is a form of speech or writing which is bitter or cutting
Better to call it Irony?

IMHO - If even one DVD was produced from a country, that country should be added.

Spaced:

I happen to fully understand that such is relatively useless, but that if I needed I would check Other and then set up a tag for Iran and guess what i then have the data, not only that i can search on it too. In other words the power is in the users hands.

When do you understand that this is Feature Request forum? This "Use tags, do it locally, use other field" is getting quite old....

No it does not, a "work-around" that you are happy with exists. Tags are great, I use them for lots of things. I have a tag group that I use to mark the "original language" so that I can keep track of languages not yet in the audio list. In this case we can select the audio 'Farsi', but not the COO.

Do I need this added? No, I don't have any films from Iran. But I do have two films from Iceland, that I can mark the COO for!  I think we can all agree that Iceland is not the worlds biggest film producing country!

Skip, anytime that you tell someone that tags would be a "work-around" is great, but to tell them they don't need a feature just because you don't is not.
