Kite Runner Boy Star Not Safe

The family of a boy involved in a controversial film about Afghanistan say that the movie's distributors are evacuating them from the country. The family says that the makers of The Kit Runner believe the measure is necessary for their own safety. The New York Times newspaper says Paramount Vantage is arranging for three families to go and live abroad, and is delaying the film's release. It has run into controversy in Afghanistan, where most of it is set.
