May 6, 2014

So I was watching Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom last night.  When they first get to the "Indian" village and are talking to the head man, Jones keeps saying istuti, which is Sinhala for thank you.  I thought this is strange as they are supposed to be in northern India where thank you is shukria.  Later on there are scenes of women plucking tea which certainly does not go on in the part of India where they were supposed to be in.  Turns out that part of the film was shot in Sri Lanka.  Of course, the continuity people should have thought of the details, but I guess most people wouldn't know or don't care. 

Anyway, it is always fun to try to spot places you know in films.
