    • Trivia
      The film is based on the graphic novel ''Radioactive: Marie & Pierre Curie: A Tale of Love and Fallout'' by Lauren Redniss. This is director Marjane Satrapi's first film based on a graphic novel that she didn't write. Two of her films, "Persepolis" and "Chicken with Plums," are based on graphic novels written solely by Satrapi.

    • Quotes

      [last lines]

      Pierre Curie: You changed the world.

      Marie Curie: In the right way?

      Pierre Curie: I'd rather be someone that hopes the world full of light than fears for the darkness out there, wouldn't you?

      Marie Curie: But I...

      Pierre Curie: You threw a stone in the water. The ripples, you can't control. There are things to be scared of, but there's so much to celebrate.

      Marie Curie: I hope you're right. I hope you're right.

    References to Hiroshima and Chernobyl spoiled it for me
    Although the movie title is 'Radioactive' I though it was the story about Marie Curie and I'm disappointed that so much included was not related to the research / achievements of Pierre and Marie Curie e.g. the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima and the Chernobyl disaster - neither of which are related to Polonium or Radium (which were discoveries of Marie Curie) The only thing they have in common is that they are 'Radioactive'.
