Comments on: Persepolis http://www.moviezeal.com/persepolis/ The official podcast of MovieZeal.com, where film is always best discussed under the gentle influence of fine wine (as fine as $10 will get you). Each week Evan, Heather, and Luke pick a theme, discuss a theatrical release based on that theme, pop the cork and drink a wine that fits said theme, and finally subject one another to The Gauntlet, where forcing others to watch painful films nets you fabulous prizes. There is not anything else on the internets like it (literally).

If that kind of great animation, slow pace, high concept, maleable world rules and none too resolute conclusion appeals to you, then you'll love the movie. I know I did.

The rest of it was fantastic, though. Hilarious, heartbreaking, real, excellently drawn, the whole nine yards. One of my favorites from last year for sure.

I have written down your suggestions and will put them on my ziplist. thanks for the recommendations always willing to expand my knowledge. A girl can't live on Jimmy Stewart films and B-movies alone. Although I have tried! I have seen Perfect blue and enjoyed it also.

I dig your Haiku site - got a good chuckle out of the one for "Forgetting Sarah Marshall"... 'funny bits' indeed. I have Paprika in the queue but haven't had a chance to dig in yet. Are you a fan of Satoshi Kon's other work? Perfect Blue, Millennium Actress, Tokyo Godfathers, and the Paranoia Agent series? I love all of his work (with the exception of Millennium Actress, which I found tedious), and am really looking forward to Paprika. Let me also take this moment to plug what I consider to be one of the greatest anime series ever, and one that most people are not familiar with: Monster. It follows a Japanese doctor in Germany accused of a crime he didn't commit, and blends perfect parts of The Fugitive with The Omen. It is a revelation, but at 72 episodes it is a bit of a daunting undertaking. If you can get a hold of it, I promise you will not be disappointed. Hey, welcome to the party Colleeny!

Most animated feature leave me cold, but I was delighted with both Persepolis and Paprika this year. In the case of Paprika, It would have made my top ten list for 2007, if not for the fact I didn't get to see it intil this year. I am the exact opposite in the generalized love of animated film.
