Comparison between Orient and Occident "Shall we dance" movie.

It was pretty obvious that the version of the movie Shall we Dance with Richard Gere and Jennifer Lopez is a re-make of a movie created for asiatic viewers. Due the fact that we could see just a little bit of both versions ( I have no intention to see the entire movie), I just have to say that in the asiatic version, it is clear that the race of the people involve is not a problem for them, I based on the fact that all the characters in the movie are asiatic. In the case of the North American version the race is a topic that is always in their mind; that why the main character is the image of the regular north american and to put a little bit of spice, the coprotagonist is a Latin American female, also you can see many of the groups that live in the north; afroamericans, italians. A mixture of races probably with the clear idea of catching the attention of those groups and with them their money. It is difficult to develop a good response with just a little chunk of information, but this is one of the main aspects that I saw in the movie.
