Directed by Gore Verbinski. With Johnny Depp, Isla Fisher, Timothy Olyphant, Abigail Breslin. Rango is an ordinary chameleon who accidentally winds up in the town of. Today the thing is that the laws are much more anti women. However, at the same time, it seems that repeating over and over to women youre worth half of men, youre worth half of men has meant all these women actually go and study much more. So that today two thirds7. Iran are girls. And so theyre playing a role in all of these domains. In the end, this means that when these girls and women marry, they will be more educated than their own father, their own husband, their own brotherand then they cannot give them shit They can no longer tell them Youre worth half of men, you know So if women have the possibility of working for a living, they could actually manage to get a divorce. First you have to have economic independence of women, and then we can talk about the freedom of women. If women are educated, they will be economically independent and they will just accept less shit. That is the first step toward democracy. The enemy of democracy isnt one person. The enemy of democracy is patriarchal culture. As with the family, where the father of the family decides and has the last word, so a dictator is the father of the nation. If we have more educated women, then we have more educated societies. This is without any feminist prejudiceits fact. I have to tell you that when I was a child, my mum used to tell me all the time Oh, you should never count on your face count on your intelligence. I dont care if you get married or not. I want you to study and to be economically independent. Now, as a child I thought she was actually telling me You are extremely ugly, you are never going to make it. You shouldnt even try to be cute. EW Thats how you interpreted it MS Yes, absolutely. I talked to her about it when I was 2. I was very stupid to think like that. EW But I guess now, understanding the context and time in which she was telling you that, it seems extraordinary that she was giving you this message. What do you think made your mother so empowered Where did this empowered line of women from which you descended come from MS This has a lot to do with geographyyou know, I come from the north of Iran. Its an area where we plant rice, where the women work beside each other, bent over all day. So there is no division between genders. My mother grew up in this place and she was very loved by her father and family. But you look around and you see a society that does not say that men and women are equal. That says it cant use women for causes other than making children or sex. Women are actually using half of their capacity or less half of their talents or less half of their brains or less half of their work or less. So this society works at half speed or less. But she was a woman of the 1. I was brought up with the idea that you are a human being. They never told me you are a girl or you are a boy. They told me anything that a human being can do, that is humanly possible, you can do. And my parents were clear that the first thing you have to do is study and, if you study, you can do whatever you want. But if you dont study, were going to give you shitSo the calculation was very easy because if I wanted to have peace and do whatever I wanted, I had to be good at school. And that is what I did. EW I had that when I grew up as wellmy mum was pretty laid back about a lot of things, but I had to do well in school. MS Also, I think that we blame lots of things on men and how nasty they are, but there is also the role of women. In a patriarchal culture, who are the ones that raise the childrenIts the women. Its they who say You know, oh my girl, you have to be pretty. My son, you have all the rights, et cetera. I have seen extremely patriarchal women and feminist men, so I dont think its a question of gender. Its a question of intelligence. And look at the female magazines, all the female magazines I never read them because they are really horrible and very superficial. How am I going to lose 1. What if I dont want to lose 1. Because you know the little crease that I haveI really love it. And what if I dont want to have perfect skin, because Im 4. I am aging But is that really the fault of menI dont think so. That is our responsibility, and when we blame it on men, we always put ourselves in the situation of the victim. And we are not victims. We are human beings. We have our brain. Nobody can stop us from being gorgeous, intelligent, thoughtful. Okay, we cannot run in the same category in the Olympic Games because we dont have the same muscles. But I see specific festivalslike a female literaryfestival and I ask, Why on earth does my nipple make me write differently Or is it my female condition I read a lot of books written by men talking about women who I cannot identify with. We need to be a little bit smarter. EW That is really disturbing. Whats coming through, and what I really identify with, is that you really believe in human beings autonomy and their own innate power and ability to govern their circumstances. And I think thats awesome. MS The only person who stops you from being free is ourselves. Nobody can take your freedom. I mean, I have lived in a dictatorship. I know what I am talking about. EW I was going to sayit is so difficult for those who havent experienced it to comment on or imagine what it is like to live in those conditions, but you have the right to say something like that because you really know youve lived it. MS I have lived in a dictatorship. There was a ban on everythingWas I less free in my mind No, I wasnt. Did I become a stupid person No, I didnt. Because no matter how much they looked at me, they could not get into my mind. That belongs to me. And that is under my control if I decide it is. And I can only decide that if I train it. If you dont use it, it shrinks, and if you use it, it grows. So it is up to us. We should not have the limit imposed on us. We should ask ourselves the real questions we face. And I think that women can be and are very, very hard on one another. You know, I turned 3. I was asked, Do you have a childNo. And then again Do you have a childNo. Why dont you have a childWell, because I dont want to be anybodys mother. But as a woman I have to justify myself all the time. And if I want to say, I want to dedicate my life to my work, I am called an ambitious bitch They never do that to a man. Never. And who asks me most of these questions Women. We are very, very hard on ourselves, on one another, and, you know, its time to consider each other simply as human beings. Its just a good beginning, I think. EW Yeah, its a good start. I completely agree. So Uncle Anoosh tells your younger self in the book Its important that you know. Our family memory must not be lost. Even though its not easy for you, even if you dont understand it all. How much did this idea inform the writing of Persepolis MS Oh, very much so. Forgiveness is a good thing because you cannot go on living your life being angry, because then you become like the people you hate. And that is exactly what is happening in the world that we live in. Our response to violence is violence. The Colbert Report Series Comedy Central Official Site.
