    It's funny and charming and sentimental in ways. At least that's how I remember it.

    I've just googled it , I thought it was a run of the mill love story film , an pleasantly surprised to find it's not !

    It might go on the To Watch list ...

    Am off to bed and Morgan Freemans dulcet tones here , have fun folks :)

    That's the whole point. It's a blistering critique of modern life. Who, at some point, hasn't felt like their head is going to topple over? It's basically asking us " Is this the life you want?" In this sense, we could view this as Persepoly's anti-capitalist masterpiece.

    Also Mzungu by using a heroine from a much loved film I was hoping to challenge our perceptions of beauty by creating such a disproportionate head.

    It was staring right at me the whole time, and I never got it. The sheer complexity of it all. There's just so many layers to your work!!!

    :D

    They might look deformed, but are they? Nothing is in this painting without reason. If your eyes have been drawn towards the toes, then there is a reason for that. You are meant to look there. I believe you are not looking hard enough, though.
