Abstract

This paper, has presented film-making frameworks relying mostly on modern and post-modern movies and the essential expression of self-reflection. The post-modern movies are in some respects different from the modern and classic ones. However, they still benefit from past achievements. The element of self-reflection is obvious in Godard's works which connotes the reality of their filming. In especially most of his latest works, Abbas Kiarostami also takes benefit from this technique. The present article analyses these two directors' viewpoints and presents the obtained influences on classic, modern, and post-modern movies. The expression of self-reflection in their works leads to art maturation. The obtained results of this research offer the related covert and overt values benefiting from the influencing process of three decades and the effect put on spectators in 15 phases. These results are considered qualitatively and quantitatively of great importance.

The definition of post-modernism is in a unit framework and is bound
