they do show you the newspaper clips at the end. and i am definitely headign to vietnam for at least 1-2 weeks my next trip. i just think he captures all the nuances of SE Asia. even down to the surly expat.
and again, i can not stress enough how exquisite his vietnamese gf is in the movie.
another good topic, and good to debate, is how brandon frazier's character blatantly went after caine's gf. i think this happens alot in SE Asia because i think the genral idea among people is that a girl is available at all times. even if she's in a relationship, it is not always 100% unbreakable, and i think thats kind of a shame.
