Week 8 movie Persepolis

The week 8 movie recommendation was Persepolis, but because i hadent read it yet and planned to read it for week 9 i wanted to wait until after i read the book to watch the movie.
I love how the art style of the comic translated to animation, it just looks really really good. the voices arent the same as i imagined them to be but it doesnt affect it that much.
In the animation i think it helped me understand the history a little better, having things pronounced properly and said to me verbally helps me learn.
The book definitely gives more information but thats true with most book to movie adaptation. but it in ways gives more information because you can hear the feelings and inflections in their voices and see the subtle face changes.
I cannot express how well i think this art style translates to animation.
I think the transitions where they tried to fit a lot of what was happening in the comic into one part transition also worked but i cannot tell if it worked because i read the book and knew what was happening anyways.
the pacing feels a little fast and rushed but i understand fitting a whole book into a small amount of time, but it still kind of bothers me like we dont get as much time to see and get ti know the characters.
I think the animation was more emotional for me then the book because of the added movements, sounds, and inflections. music always adds feelings to situations.
overall i thought it was a good interpretation of the book and while i haven't read the second book thats also part of the movie it probably did an equally as good job though i cant speak for the pacing but overall good.
