Jean-Luc Godard once said that "movie begins with Griffith, stop at Abbas." The Iranian director Abbas Kiarostami once worked in the film department of the "children and youth intellectual development institute" in Iran. After the Iranian revolution in1979, his films became famous in France, and to the international stage.According to the deep research of the movies made by Abbas, several French film critic of the magazine "film’s handbook" had dug up a series of characteristics of his films, such as "recording film","McGonagall Finn art","blind area" and so on. However, there’re still some new problems in Mr Abbas’s film system showing a state of disorder. These so called "movies" which deconstructed the films couldn’t provide the relevant information for Mr Abbas’s symptoms before be treated as the authorThis paper focuses on the "Author theory" in Abbas movies. In the post-modern film, the history of film had been forgotten, copy, schizophrenia and made people lose themselves. With life goes on, Abbas not only pulled us from the utopian ideology back to reality, but also reconciled the post-modern state and modern nothingness to this "live in the moment". I do hope this article could innovate on the structuralist theory of dual perspective through the main research method "auteur theory" combined with Pierce Category Theory "thirdness" Chain.Time and motion-This study mainly cut from two mechanisms. In time mechanisms, mainly through the study of certain concepts expressed in story content Abbas, analysis his three concepts of life and opposition systems; in Abbas unique movie camera movement mechanism, the analysis Abbas movies manifestations of personality traits, and how the "recording film" system throughout the entire film director Abbas, and operations.Abbas’s films have an opposite tendency on the form and content of expression, which called tended to progress and setbacks. Facing to such opposition, Abbas didn’t make a choice so he hovered between the two kinds of tendency as he believed that people are "on the road" at any time. In the end, this kind of "no choice" option, belonging in Abbas’s a moral concern, so he had showed a strong humanistic care in his films.This paper attempts to turn to the digital movie and make a innovation road for them by getting the experience of the development of movie in this post-modern context through the construction process of "author movies" by Abbas Kiarostami.
