Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi Should Have Won.
2008-02-29 03:50:00 I watched on TV the Oscar Awards night. It was fun. With a lot of laughs courtesy of the always dependable Jon Stewart.But that fun was ruined when Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi lost in the Animated Feature Film category. Persepolis is among the best films of 2007, I believe.Anyway, it was Ratatouille who won and it didn't deserve it. I stand by my belief. Ratatouille didn't deserve the award. Sure, it was a great film with great visual effects but that's just it. It is the Harry Potter of animated movies. Nice effects but very flat.Persepolis on the other hand is a beautiful film based on the graphic novel by Marjane Satrapi of the same title. It may have lacked the technical superiority of Ratatouille but it was very smart, witty, it makes you think and ponder unlike Ratatouille that only makes you laugh.Persepolis is a movie that shall stay with me for a very long time. I'm looking forward to a home video or DVD release so I can watch it maybe a few more times.I also loved th...
Marjane Satrapi
2008-01-28 07:06:00 Marjane Satrapi, memories of growing up in Islamist Iranby Steven WilliamsMarjane Satrapi was born in in Rasht, Iran in 1969. She grew up in an upper-middle-class, fashionably radical household in Tehran where her father was an engineer from where her feminist mother frequently marched in demonstrations against the Shah. Satrapi was ten years old when the Shah was overthrown. It is only after the Shah falls that she learns that her great-grandfather was the last emperor of Persia and that he had been deposed by a military officer who, with backing from the British, had himself crowned Shah. Her grandfather, the emperor's own son, was even prime minister for a short period but he was put in prison as a Communist. Like many other Iranians, Satrapi's parents were overjoyed at the removal of the despotic Shah. In fact, many of her parents' Marxist friends and colleagues were free after years in prison under the Shah and some of them would come to the family's apartment to celebrate....

2008-01-21 21:35:00 How to buy Iron Maiden tapes during a repressive regime, keeping aging breasts round by soaking them in ice water for ten minutes a day, surviving war and tyranny as well as Austrian nihilists, and what to say to get kicked out of a nunnery in the middle of winter in Vienna. Persepolis, the animated feature film based on the bestselling graphic novels by Marjane Satrapi, is the political film currently winning accolades around the world (except Iran) and for good reason: not only can you discover the above secrets and negotiations of life through the poignant and vulnerable writing of Satrapi, but the animation is exquisite. The film also contains possibly the best bit of media-facilitated revenge I have ever seen exacted on an ex-lover. If I was that loser living in Austria, I'd be thinking twice before messing with another cartoonist like the driven, talented and fierce Satrapi. While ruminating on our present age of computer animation typified by Disney's creatively bankrupt Ca...
Discussing Persepolis with Writer and Director Marjane Satrapi - SendMeRSS
2008-01-14 21:15:00 Discussing Persepolis with Writer and Director Marjane SatrapiBack in early December I was given the opportunity to meet Persepolis' Iranian writer and director Marjane Satrapi and quickly jumped at the opportunity. Not only had a heard great things about the indie animated film, but I knew it would be a unique opportunity unlike anything else. Leading up to the interview I finally got the chance to watch Persepolis and loved it. To be honest, I really hope it goes on to win the animation Oscar, because it truly deserves it. Not only is it a very powerful political film, but it's funny and animated incredibly. In my interview, Marjane and I discuss everything from politics to abortion to the culture of underground comics to her obsession with art and perfection, and it's a worthwhile read for anyone interested in cinematic art. In a way, Persepolis is a memoir of Marjane's own life, recalling her experiences growing up in Iran and in Europe. As IMDb describes, Persepolis is a "p...

Persépolis
2007-10-28 12:57:00 Película inagural de la Seminci, Persépolis que conocerá estreno en las salas de España dentro de unos días. Llama la atención por ser una propuesta un tanto arriesgada, ya que es una adaptación fiel de los comics un tanto autobiográficos de Marjane Satrapi. De un modo un tanto autobiográfico narra desde su punto de vista tanto la revolución islámica como la sociedad iraní. Este film llega a España tras su éxito precedente en Cannes y ser seleccionado en Francia para competir por el oscar a la mejor película de habla no inglesa.Adjunto el resumen del dossier de prensa de la película, yo al menos tengo bastantes ganas de verla: "Persépolis" es la conmovedora historia de una joven que crece en el Irán de la Revolución Islámica. A través de los ojos de Marjane, una precoz y abierta niña de nueve años, vemos las esperanzas de un pueblo rotas al tomar los fundamentalistas el poder, imponiendo el velo a las mujeres y encarcelando a miles de personas. Inteligente y sin miedo, engaña a los ...

IN COMPETITION: "PERSEPOLIS" BY MARJANE SATRAPI AND VINCENT PARONNAUD
2007-05-23 00:00:00 This is a year of many firsts for Persepolis co-directors Marjane Satrapi and Vincent Paronnaud. Their first feature-length film has won them their first In-Competition selection at the Cannes Festival. The team has come to the Croisette with an animated film which, as a first feature, is also in the running for a Golden Camera award. Adapted from the Satrapi's original graphic novel, based on her own life, the action in this animated feature begins in Tehran in 1978, on the eve of the Islamic Revolution. We look on as Marjane, the eight-year-old heroine, dreams first of becoming a prophet and saving the world, and then, once the Islamic Republic is established, of overthrowing it. During the Iran-Iraq war, Marjane's parents send her to Austria to keep her out of harm's way. That's where Marjane lives through her second revolution: adolescence, freedom, and lovesickness, but also exile, loneliness, and being different. On how the film project got started, Marjane Satrapi comm...
A Book Review of ?Persepolis? by Marjane Satrapi
2007-03-08 04:28:01 I can count the number of comic books I have read on one hand, maybe two hands if I focus. And I certainly haven’t read any comic books in the last twelve years. Though, to be honest, that’s only because the more serious comic books, those sans Donald Duck or Captain Planet, are ...
Marjane Satrapi
2007-02-23 16:10:00 Marjane Satrapi se ha convertido en una dibujante de culto para mi. Después de haber leÃdo un montón de reseñas que bendecÃan (no exagero) su cómic más famoso, Persépolis, me animé a leerlo, aunque en un principio no las tenÃa todas conmigo porque es muy difÃcil hacer que un cómic autobiográfico enganche. Pero definitivamente esta mujer iranà tiene el don de contar historias como nadie, porque habÃendome leÃdo solo un par de capÃtulos ya no podÃa parar hasta pillarme el siguiente tomo (menos mal que los habÃa en Penzol, porque estos tomos los publica Norma y hubiese sido mi ruÃna con tanto mono que tenÃa encima). La historia se desarolla en 4 tomos, que abarcan desde su niñez hasta los 21-22, contando como era su vida en Irán en las distintas épocas que vivió y su estancia en Austria.¿Y porqué la considero una dibujante de culto? Pues porque lo es, y sobre todo porque después de haberme leÃdo Persépolis no dejaron de sorprenderme sus otras dos grandes...
