    It's a little bit powerful, and the acting is very good. Every time it is a woman who saves the family, and then this man is still not satisfied, making the family that was not rich again and again, and he is still speechless outside. If it weren't for his wife and son, he would really...

    The earth is rooted in the earth, and the land nurtures the lives of the people, and the people also work hard to defend this land. People will win every day, and in the face of the ruthless disasters of nature, they must do their best to resist. The director mainly focuses on the poverty of the Chinese people, depicting the truth, and the wife's stoic character is also very vivid. The description of the man's lavishness after he gained power is also quite reasonable, and his depravity and...

    It is a spectacle in itself that foreigners play fake Chinese. And it is very close to reality, without the malicious ugliness of Fu Manchu. The actor's acting skills can be many times better than some rancid little fresh meat...

    The small classroom of Yijiao, with all English subtitles, interprets the heavy history of China in the eyes of foreigners - the truth and darkness of peasant society. Surprisingly, its poster is in color, and the movie is black and white from start to finish. The details are the highlight of this film, many of which are not even noticed by the...

    I have seen a few movies with oriental elements from a western perspective. "The Earth" can be compared with Griffith's "Tears of After Flowers". The two movies are very similar in purpose and effect, and do not force the Western world view into the East.
