Yeah, Persepolis isn't really a feel-good movie but it wasn't a total downer. I love movies that make me genuinely feel and understand, not necessarily just react to a stimulus. Although I just saw In Bruges with George, one of those movies that alternately makes you laugh and cringe, very bloody, and I enjoyed it very much. I mostly hate manipulative tear-jerkers.
