First Saudi feature 'not about Bin Laden'.

The director of Saudi Arabia's first feature film has denied that one of the central characters was modelled on Osama bin Laden.

The film, Keif al-hal? (How Are You?) concerns a wealthy Saudi businessman's attempts to marry off his daughter, Sahar. But while he wants her to wed a man of suitable wealth and social standing, her brother, Khaled, is only interested in ensuring that her future husband is a pious Muslim.

The film, funded and produced by Saudi prince Waleed bin Talal, was shot in Dubai, the relatively freewheeling commercial hub of the neighbouring United Arab Emirates, to get around Saudi Arabia's strict rules governing movies and filming. The kingdom has no cinemas, but Musallam said there are plans to open a cinema complex in 2007. Saudis get to watch films on DVD or on subscription TV channels.

Calígula, the controversial film by Bob Guccione (1979), censored in the UK since its release, has been certified as an "Adult Film" by British Film Council, leaving the original CUT, with all the sexual scenes. That film had big stars such as Helen Mirren, Peter O'Toole and John Gielgud.

Now, british people can see this important movie uncensored.
