This movie is the best film ever. It has all the elements that a good movie must have: Excellent Dialogues, Music, Acting, Story/Plot. I can't remember the last time a movie has drawn tears out of me. with a tear in my eye, I admire this movie. A story of friendship, courage, kindliness and loyalty between a Street performing who famous to The King of Masks and her a little girl that they were not conventional in real. little girl liked to be his granddaughter and The King of Masks like a grandson. Every scene they were together was priceless. The camera work is flawless and grips you. The acting is inspired. Xu Zhu was Excellent as The King of Masks. Renying Zhou "Doggie" looks pretty and played her character very well. Zhigang Zhao as Liang Sao Lang was great. He played his helpful and kindhearted character extremely well. If you have't this movie, try it once, Do watch it.

I can't agree more. i loved the movie. I haven't had a good cry for a long time. I loved the relation between Doggie and her gradpa. I even liked the monkey. What a horrible life when people have to sell there children.

I really liked it. It's not the best chinese movie that I've seen but it's close.
That little girl is just wonderful.

I also loved the character of Living Bodhisattva. He was so serene and philosophical. He was like a quiet oasis of civility and sophistication in a sea of ugliness.

No two persons ever watch the same movie.

I saw this movie about ten years ago. I took this movie course in elementary school and once a week we watched a movie and then talk about it. I was forced to watch Highlander - I hate that movie so much, so boring, so stupid. I wanted to leave before the end, but my friend stopped me, thankfully, because I would have gotten to some trouble for it - I was sitting in the front row, and there was only about 20 pupils there.
This movie was the best one I saw in that course. It moved me and it made me think. We were talking about the movie after the course. I remember we were laughing about the whole "tea pot spout" thing.
It would be great to see this again.
