Up the Yangtze








The full WEIRD SANTA seal of approval.


We saw "Up the Yangtze" this afternoon at one of my favorite theaters, the Tivoli, in the Loop in University City. Dan was ambivalent, but I absolutely loved the movie. I was deeply moved by the depiction of poverty in rural China set against the government might that will result in the Three Gorges Dam. It was one of those movies that sent me to the web to learn more as soon as I got home.
