I watched the film Persepolis tonight; what a beautiful film! It's an animated adaption of a graphic novel. Marjane, the main character, is a French girl, growing up in Iran during a time of war, oppression and sexism. The movie is about her struggle to be an ordinary girl in unordinary times.
It was just beautiful to watch and the crisp French voices were fun to listen to. This is art at it's finest. Two thumbs, WAY UP!
