One is Middle-Eastern-looking and one is Korean (North Korean???). They are fanatical and devoted, albeit to marijuana and not religion.

With Michael Moore's muckraking sense of mischief but none of his abrasive personality or blatantly unfair manipulations, Spurlock is the new poster child for nonfiction filmmaking that's both useful and entertaining -- and he achieved that status with just one movie.
