My husband is watching a movie called The Namesake and it is about a family from India living in America. The teenaged son is rocking out to "Once" !!! LOL.

    Kal Penn is a big PJ fan and asked the band if he could use the song in his movie.

    Here's a little interview saying the same thing from when it came out:

    My kids talk about "Kumar" often. Now I'll know to whom they are referring. He is a very good actor.

    I just posted about a movie called "Outsourced," in which a guy from Seattle has to travel to India to teach his future replacements how to speak better English. It's a great movie and "Long Road" is played at the end of the movie.
