Mao's Last Dancer- A quest to rediscover Heritage

The film is based on a true story, I don't think it would have ended so well in reality, given the political situation in China in the late 60's. People, different in age, background, race can meet because of a common interest in art, and can fall in love so deeply that nothing would be able to stop them, in fact, that love would grow even stronger with adversity.

  2. Agreed! Art has brought so much great things to my life- love, friends, joy and so much more. It would be impossible for me to live without doing some type of art, whether it's painting or singing,cooking or blogging:) Hope you are having a good tale of the summer! Weather here is getting a little unpredictable, sometimes cool but humid and sometimes just plain HOT :)
