Review of Mao’s Last Dancer (2009) by Thomas W — 02 Jun 2011
While the film does suffer from the "expositional flashback" syndrome, Beresford's attention to detail and history is so fantastic that it has created a powerful story that overshadows most cliches.
Li's relationship with his parents, while at odds with his country's government, is especially touching.
