2 . Let’s Enjoy a Movie!
| Chang’an |
This movie shows a fantastic journey through time and culture but goes beyond mere historical drama. It’s a celebration of enduring friendship and the unbreakable human spirit amid political turmoil (政治动荡). Language: Chinese Type: Cartoon Running time: 2 Hours and 50 Minutes Price: Weekdays—¥39 (free for kids under 6) Weekends—¥48 (free for kids under 6) |
I think the movie is so wonderful. I greatly admired the friendship between Li Bai and Gao Shi. Li Bai liked freedom and traveled around the country and Gao Shi aimed to be an official. Though they were really different, they’d been friends since they were young. I would like to introduce this movie to more friends and classmates.
—Han Jiajia
The movie is so well made. I went to see it with my 13-year-old daughter and 5-year-old son last Saturday. I loved the touching story and my daughter thought the little Du Fu was so cute.
