The movie was really beautifully done and I've wanted to read the book itself. Rest in peace.

I didn't realize there was a movie. Thanks for posting so I can check it out.

I will second, the graphic novel is excellent. Up there with Maus in terms of showing you a new perspective.

I think the movie came first, at least in the US.

The graphic novel in the US was 2003-2004, the film was 2007, unless I'm mistaken.

		Thanks for the correction. I saw the books in the book stores several months after the movie release. I suppose they were doing a rerun to toe in with the movie's popularity.

		One of the most surprising things about the movie was how precisely it captured the artistic intent of the book. A serious achievement by those animators.
