Watched this movie on home CD. Would loved to have seen it on the big screen.
This was a beautiful movie, but since most was spoken Chinese and for some odd reason the copy we watched from home had no sub-titles during the majority of the spoken word, which was Chinese, we had to guess at what was going on.
The movie is clear enough to figure things out and some English is spoken, but I would loved to have known what was being said during the Chinese spoken portions.
Overall, a lovely story of how close friendships are important. It also showed how people will find a way to connect, even when forbidden to do so.
I was also interesting to see how Chinese culture represses women.
