Hi all,
I have found movies scenes where a kite appears. You can see the scenes at
the URL
www.volerevolare-aquiloni.it (in Cinema section)
If you know other movies with kites please write me. the email address is in
home page ("scrivi al sito" button).
The web site is in italian.

Hi Nicola,
If I'm not mistaken the new version of "Flight of the Phoenix" (2004) shows
a child flying kite in the opening scene.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0377062/
Here is a link to an interesting story about the original "Flight of the
Phoenix" that was filmed in 1965.

I also think the movie "Born into Brothels" showed some Indian Fighters in
it.

I see so many movies that its hard to remember them all.

The BBC are now using a bunch of Red Foils flying around in circles on
BBC 1 between programs.....

Because it is the BBC they do not have adverts :)

Only for it's own programs, not actually to advertise products......

I'm sure it does. Without ads, it would be full of quiz shows

The BBC is funded by British people paying a tv licence..... Not by
advertising....

In science it often happens that scientists say, 'You know
that's a really good argument; my position is mistaken,'
and then they actually change their minds and you never
hear that old view from them again. They really do it.
It doesn't happen as often as it should, because scientists
are human and change is sometimes painful. But it happens
every day. I cannot recall the last time something like
that happened in politics or religion.
