Gosh.

And this is my view on the first 45 minutes of the per-open performance : kitsch, is this all Zhang YiMou”and Zhang Jigangcan do ? Or somebody from the top override their idea?

But wait, Zhang YuMou also direct the “>show after Athens hand over the flag to Beijing.

After watching that,  again, kitsch!

Lee Ang open an alternate point of view to the western world about Chinese culture in movie;  Cloud Gate Dance Theater show the world the Chinese Theater performance are not bound to western view on art; while Zhang YiMou show you the Kitch factor of Chinese culture.

Oh wait, those chicks…. yeah, it sells …   kinda universal language isn’t ;)  I never know Kitsch are part of cultural export.
