{"product_id":"a-great-wall-dvd","title":"A Great Wall [DVD]","description":"Amazon.com\n\nYou expect a culture clash when a Chinese-American Silicon Valley computer hotshot quits his job and takes his thoroughly American family home to Beijing to see his sister. In the hands of director-star Peter Wang, it's more like a series of love taps as each family receives a gentle lesson in how the other half lives. The sights and sounds of Beijing's sleepy suburbs and bustling modern urban center was an eye-opening glimpse behind the Great Wall for 1986 audiences watching the \"first American comedy shot in China,\" and the easy pace, the genial portrait of family life, and the subtle, almost fleeting references to the cultural revolution, give it a flavor steeped in both cultures. Perhaps Wang's evenhanded humor and innocence was only possible before the Tiananmen Square massacre, but it remains an enjoyable journey. --Sean Axmaker\n\nProduct Description\n\nThe first American feature filmed in modern China, A Great Wall is a graceful, infectious and \"perceptive comedy of clashing cultures and the pitfalls of assimilation\" (The Washington Post). Actor\/director Peter Wang \"serves up a platter of insights into the universality of human nature\" (The Wall Street Journal) in this heartwarming gem. After quitting his job as a successful computer executive, Leo Fang decides to pack up his American family and return to his roots in China. But when the thoroughly modern Fangs move in with their more traditional Beijing relatives, the joyous family reunion quickly disintegrates as each side tries to make sense of the other. Can the very different sides of Leo's family come together and break down the Great Wall thatdivides them?\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B00006I04I\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B00006I04I.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Hu, Xiaoguang|Haley, Jan|Iwai, Sharon|Li, Qinqin|Shen, Guanglan|Tan, Han|Wong, Kelvin|Xiu, Jian|Zhijuan, Ran|Yee, Kelvin Han\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Dvd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
