Persepolis

I watched this movie over the weekend, a French animated movie about the Islamic Revolution. I was quite impressed. The plot was interesting enough to keep my attention, but I loved the visual style. The simple character design worked well. Pretty much the entire movie is a flashback, and the transitions are very creative in parts. I particularly liked the scene in the sea and the style of the water.

  1. very cool style. huge fan of the b&w treatment. i love the flames from the burning city. the water is very cool too (as JZ mentioned). plus she's got an iron maiden poster.

  2. anything with 'eye of the tiger' is going to be bad ass. the animation looks pretty cool too
