one of the most heart warm foreign film i have ever see . the young girl be an amazing talent . stellar performance by her ( doggie ) and the old man ( the king of mask ) and and liang ( the living boddhisatva ) . ( spoiler ) the deplorable treatment of child and especially female be disturb . love the music . the original chinese dialog heighten the emotional intensity of the performance and the story . this be a must see enjoyable family film and although not for very young child . would have rat the dvd release even high if the soundtrack have be transfer well onto the dvd and the transfer have include the widescreen version .
