Ballet dancer. Mao-ist China. A trip to the US of A. Detention. Defection. Anything else I say would be huge spoilers, but omg ommg omg omgomg this movie is awesome and amazing and I am just fuckit incoherent with squee and ♥ for this film.

Here is the main character:







...guys, I used to have a list of Pico's Top Three Best-Looking Actors (because I can't pick just one). Guys? That list just grew to four.

Fangirl squeeing aside, it really is a fantastic movie, triumphant and poignant and Earn The Fuck Out Of Your Happy Endingly. It's Mao-ist China, and everything that implies. People around us in the theater were laughing and crying aloud, and everyone applauded at one scene. Applauded. A movie screen.
