In the second installment of the "Dynasty of Evil" series, the most brilliant documentary was made by documentary filmmakers to teach viewers about the historical facts. The third film in the series, "A House Divided" (2012), dealt with the issue of the Chinese versus the Japanese during the Japanese invasion of China. This time, it is the second time a Chinese family was targeted in a massacre. The documentary focuses on the life of the three children who were abducted by the Japanese during World War II. The documentary focuses on the treatment of these children as the family attempts to survive through their inability to speak Mandarin and Japanese. The documentary was a must see for anyone interested in China or WWII. The documentary was also a must see for anyone interested in understanding the Asian world.

If you haven't seen this film, please do. You'll learn so much more about the atrocities and the true story behind the lives of the Chinese victims. This is an absolute must-see for anyone interested in the history of China. If you can't find it anywhere, please get it and watch it. It's a great story that is still relevant today. Everyone should see this film.

I agree with most of the other comments and opinions about this documentary. This is one of the most important documentaries in history. It is true that the "great powers" of the world have always been the United States, Russia, Britain, France and the other major world powers of the 20th century. In the last century, the United States has become the major world power. However, it has also been the greatest promoter of the modern totalitarian regimes of the world, and has enabled them to carry out wars of aggression that have killed millions of innocent civilians. What this film does show us is that one of the greatest villains of the 20th century, Adolf Hitler, was a member of the Nazi Party in Germany during World War II, and a former high-ranking official of the German government. He is most famous for his anti-Semitic and anti-Semitic speeches, his policies of mass murder of Jews and others, and his "Final Solution" for the Jews of Europe. He is not only responsible for the Holocaust, but also for a great deal of the destruction in Europe of the middle and upper classes. This film is a must see for anyone who is interested in the history of the 20th century, or for those who want to learn more about the history of the United States. Everyone should see this film. If it is any consolation, Adolf Hitler is not dead.

The government uses her as a "model citizen" (compare to the guy who just left the country). I remember when she was in court on some intellectual crime, but now I remember that she was even at the airport to pick up her son who is a US citizen and he is now at the UN because of his passport. Anyway, it was a good documentary. But I wonder, how much influence her family and husband had on her decisions? I mean, she was at home, but she wanted to leave the country, and she said that she was going to be a model citizen (which I don't think she had any intention of doing). She was supposed to make this documentary for her husband, and I wonder if she is still going to be working there? I was hoping to hear something about the politics of the country. Maybe she has already done something about it?

I am extremely surprised by the critical response to this documentary. I am a Chinese American, but I have known about the Tiananmen massacre for about 10 years. I was shocked by the official government story, which was extremely contradictory. After seeing this documentary, I was convinced that the government was covering up the truth. This documentary also put forward the view that the Chinese government, specifically the president and the defense minister, was responsible for the massacre. This film did a great job of bringing this issue to the public. I would recommend this film to everyone. If you are a Chinese American, you should see this documentary, regardless of your views on this issue. The government is the largest company in China, and it has very little accountability.

This is a must-see documentary about the influence of the Chinese on the UK and its politicians during the Cold War. There is also a lot of good stuff on why the UK was drawn to China. It is a very informative documentary that covers a lot of ground and is a must-see for those interested in the history of the UK. The interviewees are interesting and make good points. A must-see for anyone interested in the history of the UK. 10/10

I had no idea about this movie, so it's hard to remember what exactly happened. And I still don't know if this is a documentary or a documentary about the Chinese people. But the movie shows a bunch of Chinese people who are lucky to have survived in a country where their parents have died and now lives in this country. They were taught a lot of things, even if they weren't learned in school. But they learned so much about themselves, their environment, their culture, and their place in the world. It's very interesting and it's a good way to learn about the Chinese people. I know a lot about Chinese people but I had no idea about the culture, the history, the customs and how it is different from what we know about them. They showed us a lot of things that we don't know about the Chinese. They show us that the Chinese people have different beliefs, and that they still have some cultural values. They also show us that the Chinese still have their traditions. I can't forget to mention the movie about the children. They are really sweet and have an adorable personality. They don't talk much but they express their feelings and they have a lot of maturity. I thought they would be like a bunch of old people who just talk a lot but they don't. And I can't forget about the dogs. They're cute and have a lot of emotions. It's not just the cute dogs but the other dogs too. They all seem to be happy and happy. The movie is definitely a must see, it's really worth it. I'm very disappointed that there isn't more information about this country and the people who are living in it. And I wish the movie could be released in English too. I'm very disappointed that the movie didn't show the story of the famine and how the people living in that area were treated. And they could have shown the history of China before the Communists came in and showed us the truth. It was really important to show the truth and that's why it wasn't released in English.

This movie is one of the best I've seen. It was one of the first documentaries that I had ever seen and it opened my eyes to some things that I would never have known about the Chinese. The movie is very well made and I recommend it highly. The actors are very good. You feel for their emotions as they suffer through some of the most difficult times in their lives. This is not a film for the squeamish. It is very important to see this film. You will not be disappointed.

I love this documentary. The question that it asks is extremely important, and should be asked by everyone. China needs to be re-educated. We should understand China in a completely different way. This is not an easy task to accomplish. The true story of this documentary is awesome. I love the way the film is filmed, the beautiful shots of China, the architecture, the music. It's amazing! It's also incredible that the filmmaker had the courage to make this film in a country like China, which is notoriously run by a dictatorship. I hope that more people will watch this film, because it's an incredible film. You have to see it!

Great documentary, I know this is coming from a person that loved the movie "The Act of Killing" (and to a lesser extent "Last Emperor") and this documentary does it a good service. It also shows the history of the Tibetans, their culture, and their fear of the Chinese. As for the movie, I must say that the focus of the documentary was on the plight of the Tibetans, but the movie itself is amazing. It does not play the Tibetans as villains, or as just oppressed. It portrays them as the misunderstood, tortured people that they are. I also loved the background music that plays during the movie, and the music from the Chinese soldiers that seem to be invading the country. I also loved the perspective that the Dalai Lama took when he made this documentary. He showed the whole of the Tibetans and the Chinese and the world in general as they were in the past. This documentary is extremely well done and should be watched by anyone who loves history and history documentaries.

This documentary is probably the most underrated documentary I've ever seen. It's a true story that should be required viewing for everyone. The film tells the story of a group of courageous, non-violent, politically active, activist workers who were employed by U.S. Steel in the early 1970's. The film starts out with a series of interviews with the workers, with a variety of personalities (some who were not activists, some who were activists, and some who were not activists). The documentary doesn't tell you everything, but it gives you a good idea of the point of view. After the first 15 minutes, the documentary shifts gears and tells the story of the confrontation between the local police and the protesters. The film is beautifully shot and edited. The interviews are well-timed and not over-emphasized. I think that the film is excellent, and I highly recommend it.

China is the most sophisticated democracy in the world and yet the human rights situation there is bleak. What happened to one of the world's most important humanitarian organizations? And what is the ultimate outcome of this film? We were part of the Chinese people when they went to Tiananmen Square to fight for their freedom. We felt as if we were part of the crowd and the first day we saw the images on television and heard the rumors of the massacre of innocent civilians. It was one of the darkest days in the history of mankind. I think of the scenes of young children running through the streets, knowing they would be shot in the process, and the tear-jerking faces of the mothers as they screamed for their sons. We are supposed to feel sympathy for the Communist Party, but what about the ordinary people? I think this movie shows a sad but honest look at a brutal and murderous country. I strongly recommend it. I hope China continues to move forward in such a way as to make it more peaceful and democratic.

At a time when the Chinese are in crisis and desperate for funding, this film shows how rich people, the military and business interests are able to pay off all the Chinese people, and force them to march in lock step behind the communists. The only group that shows any kind of resistance to this is the workers and peasants who actually still have a chance at a life that is better than that which they are forced to lead. The film has no words to describe how repugnant it is. The movie ends with one of the most powerful closing statements I've ever heard. The scene where the Communist leader throws out the line about "Liberation of Man" to the soldiers in the square is one of the most beautiful, moving, and powerful speeches I've ever heard. The sheer power of this speech, combined with the brutal beatings that follow are some of the most powerful scenes ever committed to film. It is a powerful statement on how the Chinese people are finally realizing that there is no reason for the Communist party to exist. The film shows us the true nature of the Communist party and how it should be abolished, and what should replace it.

The Great War has a long history. While the majority of the population of the world has not known the events of the First World War, one in a thousand people in the entire world have experienced it. The full impact of the first world war on its victims is still not known. As with many other great events in history, there is little known about the effects it had on ordinary people. This film is not just about the human cost of war. It is about the human costs of war itself. It is about the slow erosion of trust and decency in a world torn by fear and hatred. It is about the overall effects of the war on the generations of people who lived through it. The film is a tour de force. It has been dubbed and dubbed together from multiple sources. Many of the film's scenes are cut off. I had to rewind several times to get the scene I wanted. The fact that it is filmed on location in the streets of Berlin does not detract from its authenticity. The film is well worth the viewing. You will not be disappointed.

As a highly political documentary, this movie is very clever and in my opinion a very accurate and meaningful account of the Cultural Revolution. The subject is too serious to be presented in such a haphazard manner, and I believe that this movie has succeeded in doing so, by providing an accurate and informative view of the Chinese people in a way that does not try to make them look bad or say the Chinese are not as good as the Chinese from other countries. It shows the real "Bad Chinese" and not the evil Chinese Communists that make Chinese people look bad. I would say that this movie does an excellent job of depicting the changes the Cultural Revolution brought to the Chinese people. The subject of the film is the Cultural Revolution and the downfall of the Communist Party. This film has nothing to do with the personal life of Mao Zedong, or other Communist leaders. This is a documentary of the events that occurred in China in the early 1970s. I found this movie very informative and informative. The movie has a very realistic and natural feel to it. I highly recommend this film to anyone who is interested in Chinese history and culture.

Some of my all time favorites. The US government has lied and suppressed this documentary. They told the world about the U.S.S.R. it was their idea and they funded it. Why? What's so great about the USSR? It's a communist dictatorship that has absolutely no freedoms. You have to go through a "class" in the Soviet Union, and learn how to sing and dance like the Americans. It was taught for the purpose of propaganda. It is not a good thing that the Soviet Union is gone. Now they have a majority of people that support socialism. I do not recommend this documentary. It is a horrible story. I do not recommend anyone see this film. You are better off reading a book. The story of the Soviet Union is much more interesting. Watch any documentary about the Soviet Union, and you will learn more about the Soviet Union than this film. This film is not very entertaining, and is only good for people that like documentaries. I think this film is best viewed on a good sized TV screen. The film does not have very good sound, but it does not take much to fix that.

The film is based on a true story and chronicles the search for the remains of two Chinese women buried at the bottom of the Great Wall of China. This was the second attempt of a search for the remains of the two women, and the first attempt was in 1927. While the filmmaker is no historian, she clearly makes an effort to be as objective as possible. She clearly doesn't need any background information to know that the Chinese government, and the Chinese people, were the focus of the story. The documentary is not a love letter to China, and it is certainly not a propaganda piece, but it is a thoughtful and informative documentary that tells an important part of history. I think this film would be very important to any person interested in learning more about the Chinese experience. I think that this film would be a great introduction for students who want to learn about the history of the Chinese and Chinese-Americans.

One of the most moving documentaries I've ever seen, and it would be hard to say what it is about if I hadn't watched it. I was so moved by it that I wanted to tell my friends about it. I was really touched by the messages it's presented in such a way that it actually touches you and makes you think about life, family, and what makes us tick. The documentary touches on many subjects that may not have been on your radar: the film's title, the film's topic, the topics that have not been touched on in the film, the topics that have been touched on but have not been touched on, and the subject of the film. The movie has been rated as highly as this, and I can't say that I can understand why, but I can say that the movie is very realistic, and has an engaging pace, great soundtrack, and is very well-made. The documentary was actually filmed on location in China. The film is not a documentary about the Chinese people, but about the people who live there, and how they deal with the conflicts that come from the huge influx of people from all over the world. I think that the best thing about this film is that it is very realistic and, for the most part, does not portray the Chinese people as horrible. It does not go to a point of saying that they are not good people, but it goes to a point of saying that they have problems and that it is not their fault. It shows that there are problems that are not on the people's fault. I would recommend this film to everyone, and I would definitely see it again.

This is a truly inspirational film. From start to finish it feels like you are in a movie. And that is what makes it so great. And what a message to send to the world. With the impact of climate change, this film shows the need for everyone to take action and work together to save our planet. The cinematography is phenomenal, and the editing and music is amazing. The cast is great, the message is powerful, and the performances are all perfect. I am glad I watched this film, and am really grateful to be alive to see it. If you haven't seen this movie, then you really should. It is very inspiring and absolutely inspirational. It is also inspirational because it is one of the few documentaries I have ever seen that will make you laugh, cry, and keep you thinking. I give it a 10 out of 10.

I've been a bit hesitant about this documentary. I've seen many of the interviews and seen the images of the buildings, and I know how the world really is. But, I felt like I was missing something. I was hoping that they would use more of the buildings and the people to show the true picture of the world, but it seemed like they were more interested in the buildings than the people. Maybe it's because I'm not Chinese, but I really think that the people who make the films are doing a great job. The interviews were very interesting and it really was nice to see how they treated the people. It's always nice to see people from all over the world. But I think that the interviews were more about the buildings than the people. I really don't know why the film was so short. It seemed like it was just a few minutes long. I also really liked the way they were using the images and it was really nice to see the people's reactions. It was also nice to see the people's reaction to the pictures, and I think that it was really nice to see how the people were treating the buildings. I really liked the way the film was showing the people's reaction to the images. I think that the film is good, but I think that it was a little bit too short. It would have been nice to have a bit more information on the people and the buildings, but I think that the film is really good. It really is a great documentary that shows the world in a different way. I really recommend that you see it.

I watched this film on DVD at a local video store, and was completely taken with it. I was fascinated by the topic of the film, and I was even more intrigued when I found out that it was being filmed in China. This film is the story of the relationship between the British and the Chinese, and the people they met along the way. The acting is great, the directing is great, and the story is interesting. This is a film that I would recommend to everyone, and it is a film that I would recommend to any film lover. I think that this film is a great film, and I would recommend it to anyone.

I am at a loss to explain how I never heard of this documentary until now. This documentary is incredibly well-made and very well-presented. It is also very sensitive in its portrayal of both sides of the anti-communist war in China. It's well-written, well-filmed, well-edited, and really well-executed. The language used is often very difficult to understand and read, but not difficult to listen to. I give this film a 10 out of 10.

I was not expecting to see this film at all. I'm a huge fan of David's work and the subject matter was new to me. I was not disappointed at all. The film was beautifully shot and the cinematography was very well done. The music was great and very fitting for the film. The documentary did a very good job of showing the problems with China and the problems that have been created by the Chinese government. I would recommend this film to anyone who is interested in the topic of China. I would recommend this film to anyone who wants to learn more about China.

I found this film on Netflix and was intrigued by the title. I saw the poster, it looked like a documentary and I thought "why not?" The film itself is pretty boring. The editing is not good, and the acting is also not good. I could not really connect with the characters, they were all one dimensional. The Chinese culture was also not clear and I could not really connect with the film. It is not a good documentary and it is not a good film. I would not recommend this film.
