This is director Marjane Satrapi's first film based on a graphic novel that she didn't write. Two of her films, "Persepolis" and "Chicken with Plums," are based on graphic novels written solely by Satrapi.

    • Quotes

      [last lines]

      Pierre Curie: You changed the world.

      Marie Curie: In the right way?

      Pierre Curie: I'd rather be someone that hopes the world full of light than fears for the darkness out there, wouldn't you?

      Marie Curie: But I...

      Pierre Curie: You threw a stone in the water. The ripples, you can't control. There are things to be scared of, but there's so much to celebrate.

      Marie Curie: I hope you're right. I hope you're right.

    A Distinct Lack of PPE...

    ... but it still wouldn't shield you from some pretty poor editing and a story condensed into 100 minutes about a great woman who deserves so much more but seems to get the blame for Hiroshima, Chernobyl as well as errant husbands.
