Can’t believe this huge S*** that’s an insult to women was written by the same screenwriter who wrote one of my favorite lakorn, Plerng Bin Bai Ngiew. But I was right on one thing : this was obviously written by a MAN
Jeez, isn’t Donnie Yen a bit old for this part ? I mean, the character is about 30, and he’s almost 60 And he’s twice the age of the female lead I mean, to cast himself in the movie he directs despite not looking like the part, what a narcissist…
now that my girl is confirmed, I need a summary of this book. Anyone? pretty please 🥺
From what I understood when I auto-translated the summary : In 1901, an Italian guy named Paolo Di Marco comes to China in hope to find his missing younger brother under the excuse of a cultural investigation. He’s accompanied by a Chinese interpret named Xie Pingyao, and made friends with the porter Shao Changlai, a boat expert surnamed Xia, and two boxers, the Sun brothers. Their journey follows the grand canal, from Hangzhou, to the northern direction. At the end of the journey, the italian guy dies and the current Chinese government (Qing dynasty) decides to suspend the water transportation . A hundred years later, Xie Pingyao’s descendant and the others’ reunite to discuss the cultural value of the Canal and together, they reunite the pieces of their ancestors’ story.
