February 16 movie: Persepolis. Wow. What a terrific movie. At times harrowing, at times funny, always gripping. The art style really let the story shine through. I'd like to read the comic it was based on, though I heard it was a fast read. I wonder if she's written further comics that continue the story after the movie.

Actually, the movie is based on two of her books, Persepolis and Persepolis 2. She also has a book called Embroideries which is a more intimate look at the lives of women in her family (and the stories they tell each other).
