We rarely get any closeups of the stars, which is a crime considering how stunningly beautiful the leading lady Leslie Caron is. My only gripe with this film is that it didn't seem to get personal enough. Now that I've seen the original, I appreciate both films.

The narrating the audio book has been directed by Shokufandeh. Listening to these books could lessen stress and anxiety in this situation,” she added. Or sometimes, we are stuck in heavy traffic and our time is going to waste. “Sometimes we do not have the opportunity to read a book or we are unable to concentrate. “I think the idea of the publication of audio books is amazing,” said Shokufandeh, who previously voiced the character of Judy in “My Daddy Long Legs”, a 1990 Japanese anime television series based on “Daddy-Long-Legs”, for the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting.
