Review of Persepolis (2007) by Jack R — 19 Sep 2012
Finally got around to seeing this. Unbelievably good. Excellent adaptation of style from the comic, and compelling story. I feel like I got a lesson in the modern history of Iran, and I think it's important for *everyone* to see it to humanize Iranians in the West.
Too many people write off the whole country because its government is INSANE and evil, but the PEOPLE aren't. Just a beautiful, funny and heart-breakingly sad film.
