Nothing's worse than saying goodbye. It's a little like dying.
Marjane Satrapi
If it's a good work of adaptation, the book should remain a book and the film should remain a film, and you should not necessarily read the book to see the film. If you do need that, then that means that it's a failure. That is what I think.
Marjane Satrapi
