Persepolis The Comic and Movie

After finishing the comic I noticed huge differences between the two.  The movie moves at a rapid pace.  You really need to follow it or else you'll be lost.  The comic you can take time to stop and reflect.  I did this a lot and would go into deep thought about my own life.  I realized how fortunate I was a child and lucky to never go through the hardships as those did in the comic.  When I was watching the movie, I didn't really have that opportunity.  I had to pay close attention so I would be sure not to miss anything.  The movie keeps straight to the point.  It doesn't ever go into much detail.  I know we haven't finished the movie yet, but I think the comic was much better.  Since it gives the reader more time to reflect, it becomes more emotional and allows the reader to be more attached.
