Peter Ho-sun Chan is a Hong Kong film director, his recently released comedy American Dream in China is well-known. But maybe less people know his early movies, such as Almost A Love Story.
Qiao has very strong adaptive capacity, just like a grass seed, she can survive no matter where the wind blows her into. She is a strong minded woman, she told Xiaojun, their relationship is not the reason they came and struggle a life in Hong Kong. They both came from inland China to build their wealth here and earn a better life. Although they love each other, they still maintain in friendship. However, this chance encountered experience dims all achievement Qiao gained. The expected sweet feeling and sense of satisfaction didn't come when Qin got the wealth she always wanted. Maybe our happiness is not from the result which we are pursuing all the way but from the unexpected experience or people we met during the way.
Date back to the period when they were selling tapes of Teresa Teng's songs, Xiaojun told Qiao, " I know you usually took advantage of me, but I am afraid you won't come to find me if I have no advantage to be taken. Because you are the only friend I have in Hong Kong." One is eager for success, another is down to earth. Maybe just like the saying goes that, Great wisdom appearing slow-witted.
By the arrangement of fate, they came across again in 1996. When they smiled at each other, it seems saying, " Meeting you are quiet an accidental event in my life, but the sweetest."
A debut of American Dharma in North America was released in Toronto Film Festival when I firstly saw it. It's a great chance to to hear what the director's opinion about Bannon, the role of this documentary, who was the executive operator of an American media and famous for being Trump's advisor during his campaign. Although the movie describes Bannon objectively, the director seems has nothing in common with Bannon's stand points and feels some kind of unacceptable about some thoughts such as Bannon compare his departure from Trumps' team to Lucifer in Paradise Lost. Actually, this documentary is an epitome of 2016 Trump's presidential election period. What makes me feel curious is the reason why Bannon compares himself to honey badger.
