Kite Runner (movie)

Speak of globalization, not only is most of our clothes (China is the #1 manufacturer of bras) being produced in China...our movies are being produced there too. Kite Runner was shot in my favorite province of China: Xinjiang. Can you believe that!? Not only is Kite Runner my favorite book, but the movie was shot in my favorite part of the world! This makes me doubly high in expectation!

"We had four languages on set. It's difficult because you have the Uyghurs that live in that area and the Uyghurs speak Uyghur, the Chinese speak Mandarin, and then you have English, and then you have the cast that speaks Dari. You're constantly around translators from all languages because the Chinese can't speak Uyghur, the Uyghur can't speak Chinese. Some of them couldn't speak any English, so I always had a translator."


That's globalization for ya. For the rest of the article:
