Re: Persepolis coming to BD
The film was dubbed in English for an EXTREMELY brief limited re-release back in March. I saw it in its original theatrical run here in French and again in English (the dub was also directed by the same people who did the French.) It is a really good dub, featuring Gena Rowlands as the grandmother, Sean Penn, and the lead role & her mother both played again by their original actors. I think both versions are valid and good representions, and I expect that the Blu will contain both. (I don't have a source for that though, it's just a guess.)
But I *loved* the film and will definately be purchasing it on Blu. For such a darkly-toned story, it is surprisingly hillarious and yet gets the dark stuff just right too.
