Crosscurrent (2016)
Interesting movie
30 June 2023
Not really the kinda thing that appeals to the Non-Chinese culture. I agree with another reviewer on this point.

Cultural exchanges are fine and Chinese culture is rich, but somethings just don't make the cut. Take birds's tongues pies for example or stewed cat, well, some aspects of Chinese literature has a similar cringey-chill response.

But here is an interesting aside. The longest river in China is the Yellow River! You wouldn't believe my surprise when the brother of my Chinese ex-gf, told me that the source of that right is a place that sounds like this in the English pronunciation: Ipee Stan Ding. I was laughing about it for days. Then he told me he made it up because I likes to mess with peoples' heads.

Still pretty funny, tho'.
