Persepolis Product Placement

[tealin]

To the tune of 'Christmas is Coming':

Satrapi's new movie
Is out on DVD –
Please to watch Persepolis
On your TV.
If you will not buy this movie,
Then renting it will do;
If you will not even rent it then
Shame on you.

Seriously, though, watch it. Even if you don't think you'll like it, give it a try. I thought it was going to be preachy and political or irritatingly sentimental but it's not – it's funny, heartbreaking, fascinating, human, and just generally fantastic. WATCH IT.

Here's a trailer.

Watch iiiiit...

As soon as I saw the previews I wanted to see it, just because the animation looked cool, as in different from anything else I've seen lately. The story sounded interesting too. Everyone else said, "well that looks bizarre," so I'll probably be seeing it alone. XD
