Persepolis the Movie
November 29, 2007
I’ve only read volume one of this graphic novel but I highly recommend it. The story is honest and straightforward. The art work is simple and effective. I’m really looking forward to seeing the movie. The quote below is from ifilm.com
Based on Marjane Satrapi’s best-selling graphic novel, the poignant coming-of-age story of a precocious and outspoken young Iranian girl that begins during the Islamic Revolution.

Wait. There’s a movie coming out? Seriously? Have I been living under a rock?
Awesome.

Here’s a link http://www.sonypictures.com/classics/persepolis/ -
to Sony pictures who are apparently releasing it this December.
If IMDB.com is to believed, it was released this June in Belgium - http://imdb.com/title/tt0808417/
I’m very excited to see it. The trailer makes the movie seem very close to the book, both visually and in tone.
