lovely film.

i couldn't read the sodding subtitles very well though cos they were white. and my eyes are rubbish.

 

[Shippou-Sensei]

i'm supprised by the shitness of some subtitles

mind you i'm something of a connoisseur by now

I thought the subtitles were alright...at least they've tried by greying out the spaces around the letters. I've seen the version dubbed in English and couldn't understand what they were saying

Lovely film though. I think I should read the book sometime!

 

[Dillinger4]

I liked the eye of the tiger bit.

 

[Threshers_Flail]

I liked.

 

[Prince Rhyus]

Watched Persepolis last night - brilliant brilliant brilliant - that and insults shouted in French sound far more cutting.

 

[Augie March]

Tis an ace film, think I need to read the comic too.

 

[FabricLiveBaby!]

Watched this last night.

10/10.

if you like persepolis i would thoroughly recomend 'waltz with bashir' ....... it might be a bit more boyish as its about genocide from a soldiers point of view, but an excellent film none the less.

 

[Buddy Bradley]

(she is also very good looking if i remember the author photo rightly)

I watched the DVD recently, with a 'making of' featurette - no, she isn't, at least not as much as the adult cartoon version of her would have you believe. She's very animated though.

What happens in the third book then?

I really like the sound of that. I'll check it out. Thanks for the heads up.

I do love animated films far more than live actions.

It won a number of awards iirc

when you've watched it, start a thread, the words needs to be spread
