Language lessons are part of Hollywood's global approach
In 1998, American director Bryan Singer, introducing his movie "Apt Pupil" at the Toyko International Film Festival, decided to surprise the crowd by speaking in Japanese.
But he bungled the translation and, instead of saying "I look forward to seeing you after the film," he said he was looking forward to having sex.
He went back to Japan last week to promote "Superman Returns," but he practiced his Japanese - a lot, says the New York Times
