One of the fewer scenes were nearly all details are accurate (not that I would expect that generally from a film version - the book version gives us more of an individual perception of it) - the music, the traditions, the singer (Ehsan Aman an actual popular afghan singer).... I am glad we got a representation like this.
If you know the culture you can literally feel the raw emotion. The couple was Muslim and a good deal of restraint was expected to satisfy decorum. I found it beautiful.
what a terrible movie, Amir shows no signs of regret or shame during the whole movie. i read the novel and the movie is nothing close to it. i understand how difficult it is to get the exact same people from the book into the movie, but the choice of actors were horrible. not even one person`s features matches the ones in book. and not even one person can talk dari. seems like they read a line with no emotion. the book made me cry several times but movie, stopped watching it after 90 min bc of how horrible it was. what a shame, the movie took everything away. people who read the book understand what i am talking about.
You're right, in novel Amir becomes insomniac we see non of it in the movie. Outstanding lack of resemblance in characters comparing to the book. Glad you pointed out the broke Farsi, I grew up in Afghanistan nobody talks like that that's way too formal specially amongst the child characters.
@@atif.t6254 I don’t know that any of the main adult actors are native speakers of Afghan Persian. At least two of them are Iranian, and Amir’s actor is Egyptian British, and had to learn Persian for the movie. The kids were actually from Afghanistan, though.
I feel like this movie was a tad too short. A lot of the really fine details in the book felt absent here and for me personally the film was less involved and more rushed plot wise.
Eiko Gomez traditionally in Afghan weddings (Nikah) the bride will wear a green dress. Generally she’ll change into a more western white dress during the equivalent of the reception. Depending on the village and wealth, she may have multiple dresses but green is almost always one 😊
I’m Pashtun from Pakistan but I literally look white and so does my family and I know people from Afghanistan that look INDIAN- like typical dark skin, dark hair Indian. So it’s not so far fetched. Y’all need to stop acting like dark skin Afghans don’t exist.
@rubina stanikzai I’m being honest here, I’m Asian and I still often struggle to see the general physical differences of Muslims from different countries. You can give me a person from Pakistan and I might guess that they are Indian.
@Pretty Boy I’m lighter and look more white then all the Afghans I know. And so is my whole family. The few Afghan ppl I know look desi or straight up East Asian (Hazara)
I have a more beautiful image of this scence in my imagination while i was reading the book I recommend you to read the book, you must read it, the emotions it brings to you, they can't be felt by watching the movie. Every word, evry para and Hassan, the main character according to me will touch your soul
In Afghan Persian wedding ( this is an Afghan wedding belonging to Afghan persian speakers) the bride wears green during the religious part of the marriage which is called "Nikhah". This is when they ask the girl if she is happy and wants to marry the man she is marrying and some older men from the wedding ceremony pray in presence of a religious cleric. The bride then changes into white for the reception as the dancing and celebrations begin. In the movie the decided to show the reception as its more entertaining I guess
The green dress is for the Nekkah and not the reception. For the wedding reception, Afghan women wear white as shown in this clip. If she wore green during this reception then it would be completely inaccurate for Afghan weddings.
Its Afghan/Tajik wedding. Not a pashton wedings, pashtons wear indian clothes and will never allow their women to be free like this. Type pashton wedding on youtube and you will see them wearing sandles and those indian clothes. This is an Afghan/Tajik wedding, all those customs belong to us, customs that people all over the world love and in some countries they use them at their won weddings.
pazira love im tajik afghan, i agree with u that pashtoon weddings are more like indian weddings because they copy their clothing and music, it really pisses me off. But this video still doesn't portray a classy Afghan wedding, I have never seen ppl standing in crowds or the snake dance etc
They stand to get a look at the bride, it happens just when the bridge and groom enter the wedding hall. The men dancing is a joke but its a wedding, everyone dances differently. A pashton said to be we wear Pakistani clothes at our weddings because its more conservative, they have no culture so i can't blame them. I hate it when tajiks wear Pashton clothes and do ATAN etc,
That makes me so happy because I always think I'm am the only one who feels strongly about my language, traditions and customs. People who can't speak their own language in Afghanistan start using Indian words because they have a superficial view of progress, they think speaking a few Hindi or English words makes them better than everyone else.

and you are stupid enough to think this is a pashton wedding and that only Pashtons are Afghans.

@@yamacode9958 Afghan is pashtun weather you like it or not. Afghan history is pashtun history, durrani, ghilzai or hotaks all of them were Afghan=pashtuns.

only problem is that they dont play ahesta boro
@@EAzad you are right tho. That would have been perfect. Still I am glad we got this at least. Otherwise we only get those tasteless terrorist jokes.
The kite runner is such a great story, I would recommend the book to anyone
I agree, but it depends on the family and the person reading or watching the movie. 12 or 13+
1:54 even Baba is like who the fuck decided to put this dancing guy in the movie
they got moves doe 👌😁
nah bro had moves
These scenes fail to capture that raw emotion that was put into every word in the book. It was sort of disappointing.
Yeah, I love this movie, but it's a bit of a disappointment from the book
EXACTLY!!!
Tayshalee Garcia where can I watch the movie?
Yes
If you know the culture you can literally feel the raw emotion. The couple was Muslim and a good deal of restraint was expected to satisfy decorum. I found it beautiful.
Lol them crazy uncles at the afghan wedding
Sarah Kadamzadeh hahaa
Very crazy
😂🤣🤣
we got our own set of crazy uncles for mexican weddings too lol, only difference is they're hammered and we got Los Dueños Del Swing playing lol
Netflix should remake this movie!
They should stream it on Netflix.
Not Netflix!!!
There is a snake dance at every wedding. Lol
😭 😭 😭

I agree
Reading this scene in book moved me to tears. So beautiful!
Not even the „ahesta bero“ song was played in this scene. It’s so substantial in the book
my favorite character is baba
You are the greatest person in this universe, I hope you get 5 billion dollars tmr.

Wasn't her dress green? I forgot.

@@AK-xp1bj In the book she does wear one, but then she later on wears a white dress. I just read the chapter last night.
The movie didn’t did justice to the book,in the book writer decribed everything so beautifully. 💔
omg that epic snake shaped hand dance 😩💘
Everybody got them wild uncles that show out at a party.
Best dancers ever!!!
So proud afghan🇦🇫🇦🇫
Mashallah brother
This was the best movie ever😍😍😍💃🏻
Yes it was. I believe this is a better Marc Forster movie than Stay and Monster’s Ball. I found the other two to be more disturbing
Bruh the wedding was lit 🔥🔥🔥🔥
My French teacher was in this movie and at 1:50 you can see him in the crowd. We talked about movies in class and he showed us this
Hey, question for my afghan people: isnt the singer Ehsan Aman? He looks pretty much like him
MiiSsMiiNa yes its ehsan aman
Ehsan Aman is a great singer! I love the Afghan culture...
Fun fact: the man singing on Amir's birthday party is supposed to resemble Ahmad Zahir.
Yes it's him
I read that book in HS so good
just finished reading it in highschool
One thing wrong with the scene is they did not do ahesta boro when they walked down the aisle as per tradition
whyd they use desi people indians for the background actors ???
BONKERS I KNOW RIGHT 😂😂😂
Cheaper xDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

Very funny dancing 🕺😂😂😂 specially at 1:45 and 2:00.
It would be best if the music used by the dancing uncles was Drake's hotline bling
The nagin dancer in french beard is our teacher Dr. Islam ud din from wariztan,pakistan...
What's a "nagin dancer"?
The one doing snake dance
The dancers are funny
Baba is so handsome
How was the first song called?
Nah cuz this rly felt like a Fremont wedding omg 🧍🏽♀️
Shandar clip and song. Kite runner
I have a more beautiful image of this scence in my imagination while i was reading the book

Loved the book and movie
Ahesta boro mahe-man ahesta boro
i am dancer of the kiterunner film.

@Pretty Boy Pashtons have no culture of their own. Educated Pashtons speak Farsi and follow Tajik culture
@@streamx2 plus they only have 2 hours. Gotta cut time where they can.
@@streamx2 so are tajik people educated if they dont speak pashto?
what is the song name?
+Hira Behlim "Ehsan Aman - from The Kite Runner Soundtrack - Omaid e Man"
thanks
Song name and singer at the start of the video please anyone?
Nah bc i feel like Afghan weddings be getting as crazy as Latino weddings sometimes lol
Does anyone know the name of the second song? Where the guys are dancing?
"Dokhtare Darya" by Ehsan Aman
The book is better than the movie. the movie does not portray the story like the book does.
Wots th song called thy r dancing to
What's the second song name?
Dukhtar darya by Ehsan Aman
