  1. Nice restatement of the basic premise of the movie. I like it very much; I hope they get some nice buzz based on this ad.

  2. Dammit, I’m getting really excited about a movie based on a prose story I didn’t think could be turned into a movie, let alone a successful one.

  3. Brings to mind the conversation I had with a Pakistani gentleman several years ago as we were unloading a ship in Saudi Arabia. We shared not a single word of language in common. But it turns out that we were both married. He had two children….sons….and I had four (3/1 m/f). There wasn’t a bunch more, but we managed to offload the boat and invited him (and the rest of our help) to dinner.

    And then they stole our tools.

    A pretty good night all in all.
