    Spielberg's feminist novel is biased towards the black perspective but retains the rhythm of his storytelling. I have always been disgusted with sympathy movies that are twitchy and contrived, but this one is so plain that I am moved. Xia Ge's tall and independent female personality inspires Xili step by step. In addition to external forces, Xili's eternal pursuit of her sister is more important in this process. The downside is that there are too few first-line explanations to my sister, and the plot jumps a bit out of standard at the end.
