American Chinese Story

1. Spend time exploring Chinese culture and respect traditional Chinese values. 2. The narrative, theme and expression are all very American. Frankly speaking, it is this American expression that I am familiar with and willing to accept. 3. Because of the Chinese elements in it, it has become my current favorite animated film. 4. What touched the deepest emotion was the awe-inspiringness of Mulan's father receiving the summoning order; the best visual effect was the charge of the barbarians on the snow-capped mountains. 5. The image of the Chinese in the film is to cherish honor, be loyal to the country, and respect the gods and ancestors. It is rare to see such a positive image of Chinese in American films. Finally, I want to refute those who criticize Laomei for distorting Chinese culture. After all, they speak English and take pictures for themselves, so why can't they interpret them in their own way?

    I happened to relive the original soundtrack at the Lotus Terrace just now, from five stars to three stars. The first time I watched this film was about when I was in the early days of Xiaosheng, I was shocked. Now it seems that after more than ten years have passed, when both vision and knowledge have undergone subversion, when faced with the arrangement of stories, setting of scenes, ideas and lines, the problems of thinking are no longer what they used to be.

    Chi Fu: Silence! You would do well to teach your daughter to hold her tongue in a man's presence.

    Fa Zhou: Mulan, you dishonor me.

  • Fa Zhou: My, what beautiful blossoms we have this year. But look, this one's late. But I'll bet that when it blooms, it will be the most beautiful of all.
