Re: Director Ying Liang Threatened by Police, Is Safe in Hong Kong

Since his wife, Peng Shan, is also co-producer and co-writer of Ying Liang's movies, I'm afraid that she, too, could have some problems.

Has that oft-repeated "cultural naiveté" quote ever been fact-checked. I was at that panel in Shanghai and wrote down every word of the reasonably good Chinese-to-English interpreters. The article that first used that translation didn't reflect the content of the panel in general so I don't trust the specific translation. Unfortunately, I didn't make an audio recording of the panel myself.

Hello Brent,

No problem, when you write you always prefer to be read, and eventually criticized..

So let me know what you thought about the reviews, particularly if you've also saw the movies !

Re: Shelly on Film: Chinese Selections for the 2011 Vancouver Film Fest

Joe — Sat, 08 Oct 2011 17:04:16 -0000

Hi Shelly,
I'm really surprised by how much praise you gave to Apuda. Half of the people I saw the movie with were asleep. I didn't fall asleep, but it was an agonizing experience and demands too much willpower to decipher something that may simply has nothing to say after all.

Especially I would to hear you explain the following:
"Apuda’s language, too, is fascinating, as he talks largely to himself (and sometimes to his father, and very occasionally to rare visitors) with a distilled, articulate, quasi poetic voice whose every word one wants to hang on to."
Which lines are those? Care to support your words on a line by line basis? His calculation of how many tonnes of apple he needs to sell to make 800 yen, or that he's tired and needs a rest? Why should I hang on to those?

and

"With an extraordinarily patient eye, He renders Apuda’s daily routine with exquisite attention to minute details"

So this means from now on, every aspiring filmmaker can place a camera at 45 degree angle, shoot a subject doing one small thing for 10 minutes straight, and can be called as having "extraordinarily patient eye...exquisite attention." Am I right? Boy is it easy to be a Chinese doc filmmaker these days.

Just because you are promoting a film for a festival, doesn't mean it deserves such lavish praises. Makes it hard for me to take your other writings seriously from now on.

Cheers

Congratulations. What a cute couple. I have to wonder, though, is that string that appears to be hanging around Jia's shirt collar holding his film festival pass?
