the only good thing about persepolis be the shadow create in the german expressionism style of animation and a hint of history . this movie bore me . it be about a woman dissatisfy with her culture who try everything else and then go back to her root . here she find great discontentment once again and finally leave for final to let everyone else in her country figure out the situation and what they will do now that she be not there to support them . it come to no conclusion and leave u with a feeling that this woman have no loyalty . mind you and she be torn between culture and doesn not have enough of a background it seem to figure what be important and real . she be listen to ever so many voice and will most likely end up a world citizen of some kind than one with any tie to her native culture of iran . the only thing i receive from this movie be angst .
