See inside the film about the the adversity Marie Curie faced as an immigrant and a woman.
“Everybody who tells this story is subject to his or her response,” says Marjane Satrapi. “There is only one matter that is objective, and that is science.”
Satrapi is best-known for her memoir comic book “Persepolis,” which depicts her experience growing up in Iran during the Islamic Revolution. She moved into directing with the animated version of “Persepolis,” which premiered at the Cannes Film Festival, where it tied for the Jury Prize More recently, she directed the absurdist black comedy horror film “The Voice,” starring Ryan Reynolds.When her agent called about the script for “Radioactive,” Satrapi wasn’t sold on the idea.
Curie faced many hurdles as a scientist at the end of the 19th century: she was female in a male-dominated field, and she was a foreigner during a time of French nationalism. Satrapi wanted to steer clear of portraying her as superhero, however.
Hardest to depict on-screen were the particulars of the scientific process, which is often tedious . It’s also to an extent, invisible. “It’s the least sexy thing that you can show,” Satrapi says. Within the movie industry, funding is one of the biggest hurdles for getting any production off the ground. And although directing tends to be a male-dominated field, Satrapi hasn’t found her gender to be a hindrance.
