🎥 Film culture around the world~
As predicted, the month of the Lunar New Year is a sad time for foreign movies in China. We only get 3, possibly 4. In the culture bureau's effort to support Chinese culture, we get a LOT of fun local films instead. Even a new Peppa Pig cartoon.
Nothing compared to last month's 12 foreign movies. We don't believe in balance here in this country.
There's an ounce of good news, though, Captain Marvel secured a same day release with the US! That means we'll get it in Mainland China on March 8. More about that next month.
Back to February: we get a Japanese romance flick and another anime, the new cyberpunk action film written and produced by none other than James Cameron (which is based on Japanese manga), and possibly a heavily Oscar-nominated Mexican drama.
Not this year, buddy.

so if you're planning a romantic candle-lit evening,
it's always smart to double-check ahead of time. TIC.

Yes, China decided to tack on another one at the end of January. No, it's not the original version.
In this highly censored sequel, 4th-wall breaking mercenary Wade Wilson aka Deadpool (Reynolds) must assemble a team and protect a young, beautiful mutant known as Firefist (Dennison) from Cable (Brolin), a no-nonsense, dangerous cyborg from the future, and must also learn the most important lesson of all: to be part of a family again.
漫威史上最贱的雇佣兵死侍再度归来!本与女友过着幸福生活的死侍(瑞安·雷诺兹 饰)上门寻仇,美好生活岌岌可危。然而悲惨的日子还没结束,死侍还和想要接纳他的X战警剪不断,理还乱。就在这位平日里插科打诨的英雄人生跌入谷底之时,一位强大的时空穿越者——电索(乔什·布洛林 饰)却盯上了死侍想要保护的少年。

She cannot remember who she is, or where she came from. But to Dr. Ido, the truth is all too clear. She is the one being who can break the cycle of death and destruction left behind from the past.
But to accomplish her true purpose, she must fight and kill. And that is where Alita's true significance comes to bear. She is an angel from heaven. She is an angel of death.
We might go see this one, just for Christoph Waltz and Mahershala Ali.

In a Lord of the Rings type world, all the people stop aging in their mid-teens and can live for hundreds of years. One resident, Maquia, feels lonely despite the peaceful and idyllic land she lives in.
But one day, another army invades their land, seeking the peoples' blood for their immortality. Maquia manages to escape the destruction and chaos of war, but with no home or people, she becomes a wanderer in a dark forest.
Lo and behold, she comes across an infant mortal boy who has lost his parents, and becomes his guardian. The story follows the relationship that evolves between the two as he grows up while Maquia does not.
The animation alone makes this one worth it.
在世界的尽头,住着一群被称为“离别一族”的古老民族:他们拥有着长寿之血和永生不老的面容。在一场外族入侵的战役中,离别一族惨遭灭族,15岁的玛奇亚虽然侥幸逃生,却彻底和朋友失去了联系。孤身一人的她在残骸中拾到了一个普通人家的遗孤,并决定收养它。然而随着时间的流逝,玛奇亚必须要学会如何做一个母亲,经历人间的生离死别,并在朝代的更迭中守护“离别一族”最后的信仰…

China Release Date: Friday, February 22, 2019
导演: 阿方索·卡隆
主演: 雅利扎·阿巴里西奥 / 玛丽娜·德·塔维拉 / 迭戈·科蒂娜·奥特里 / 卡洛斯·佩拉尔塔 / 马科·格拉夫

This is the film with all the buzz and the one that has won all the awards this season so far and has been nominated for 10 Oscars. It's simply a must-see.
The premise is simply about a year in the life of a middle-class family's maid in Mexico City in the early 1970s. But the key feature is the amazing director.
If it gets canceled, you can easily download it online.
故事发生在墨西哥城的一个中产阶级社区“罗马”,讲述年轻女佣克里奥(雅利扎·阿巴里西奥饰)在雇主索菲亚(玛丽娜·德·塔维拉饰)家中工作,该家中索菲亚的丈夫长期在外,由女佣克里奥照顾索菲的四个孩子。
突如其来的两个意外,同时砸中了女佣克里奥和雇主索菲亚,两人究竟该如何面对苦涩茫然的生活?四位孩子似乎是希望所在。 这是以导演阿方索·卡隆的儿时记忆铸成的影片,而卡隆其实就是片中某一位小孩。
