Film in 2017; 10/10

#43; Persepolis & #44; Batman: Return of The Caped Crusaders 

I scored both of these movies a 10/10

IMDB's description of Persepolis;

In 1970s Iran, Marjane 'Marji' Statrapi watches events through her young eyes and her idealistic family of a long dream being fulfilled of the hated Shah's defeat in the Iranian Revolution of 1979. However as Marji grows up, she witnesses first hand how the new Iran, now ruled by Islamic fundamentalists, has become a repressive tyranny on its own. With Marji dangerously refusing to remain silent at this injustice, her parents send her abroad to Vienna to study for a better life.

I can't tell you much about it because it benefits highly from watching it. I can admire how it's mostly monochrome, hand drawn - how often do you see an autobiographical movie told in this way?

Also, how often do you see an autobiography not about some uber-famous white person reach America and make this much of a splash?

On the flipside, Return of the Caped Crusaders is no biography, but a throwback to the original Batman show of the 1960s, which I have never seen, but the silliness is so permeated in pop culture that the jokes land.
