Selah的观影感受
Selah really enjoyed the movie. 非常喜欢这部电影。
这部电影:
did a good job at (在……做得好)telling the story, showing Chinese cultural values
family movie(适合家人一起看):因为没有intense romance(强烈的爱情)
made Selah laugh and proud of Chinese stories and history(为中国故事和历史感到骄傲)
did a good job at making it look and feel “Chinese”(看上去和感受起来很“中国”)
传递 Chinese traditional values(中国精神):bravery(勇气) and family honor(家族的荣耀)
the costumes: big dresses (大长裙)and 夸张的makeup(妆容)
the actresses Liu Yifei & Gong Li:did an excellent job and did not try to be too American or Western(演出了“中国化”的感觉)
