The Runners are capping off their Marjane Satrapi miniseries with a combination discussion of her final comics work and sophomore film, Chicken With Plums! This is consistent! It makes sense! When Nasser Ali's prized tar/violin is broken and he is unable to find its equal, he resolves to die and spends the next 8 days reflecting on his family, loves, and art as he waits for death. Topics of discussion include Satrapi's transition from comics to film, the comparative strengths and weaknesses of the two mediums, and the story of the first time David saw Steve McQueen's Hunger. Plus, the Runners give their definitive Satrapi rankings and announce the next miniseries!
Covering Chicken With Plums (2004) by Marjane Satrapi (W/A) and Anjali Singh (T) and Chicken With Plums (2011) by Marjane Satrapi (D/W), Vincent Paronnaud (D/W) and many more.
