In recent weeks, an independent film in China became very popular. The film is called “Dear You.” It cost only 10 million yuan, which is about 1.5 million US dollars. It was filmed in Teochew, a dialect from southern China. Most of the cast are ordinary people, not famous actors.
“Dear You” made more than 600 million yuan, over 88 million US dollars, since Labour Day weekend. People rated it 9.1 out of 10 on Douban, a popular website in China for film reviews. This score is very high and puts it with famous films like “Titanic.”
I went to see the film at the cinema on the weekend. It was very busy and full of people. The film started with fun scenes, but soon became very emotional. I saw a big man near me crying.
The film tells a touching story. It is about a grandmother named Ye Shurou. Her grandson goes to Thailand to find his missing grandfather, Zheng Musheng. The grandson learns important truths about his family in the end.
