A recollection beside the production credits
Cinema Ideal republishes an ISNA account of the Cinema Museum’s conversation between Rasoul Sadr-Ameli and Fereydoun Jeyrani. Reflecting on Chrysanthemums, Sadr-Ameli identifies Rabihavi as the author of its story and recalls discussing it with Jeyrani before the next feature was proposed. Source 1
This retrospective supplies a director’s recollection of how the project began. It complements the film databases’ separate initial-story, screenplay and directing fields, without collapsing those credits into one writing role. The interview’s 2021 publication date is distinct from the film’s production year. Source 1
