Persepolis Comes To Life…

If you are as fanatical of a fan as I am, then I have good news for you…

She finally did it… Did what she had to do… Showing her memoirs on the big screen…

Marjane Satrapi‘s “Persepolis” is being made into a movie as we speak, to be released in 2007… The film will depict her (and her family’s) stories through witty animations, much in the same manner as her books do.”Persepolis” is directed jointly by Marjane* and Vincent Paronnaud. And who else would write the screenplay but the author herself – afterall, it’s HER life!

Can’t wait… Can’t wait at all… Stay tuned!
