PERSEPOLIS
I really enjoyed the movie adaptation of persepolis. i feel like it most definitely did the graphic novel justice. it didnt change they way that i view the characters either since it was animated in the same way the graphic novel was. I also like that it was subtitled and not dubbed because usually when movies are dubbed for translation it almost ruins the work entirely. one major difference i noticed was that the book started off with marj wearing the veil and talking about how much it sucks and then it went to her growing up as a child and from then on out even passing the age she was when she started narrating. In the movie it started with her in the airport as an adult in color telling her story which appears in black and white like the graphic novel. The movie did however leave out a few characters and events such as her uncle and the woman and her husband among several other things. but i did enjoy the movie overall.
