Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress

[Onkel Neal]

I just saw a movie in the cinema here in Houston, "Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress". For a description, read here: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/08/11/AR2005081101855.html

Has this film been shown in China? What about the book?

It was very interesting. The advertisement said it was in Mandarin but my friend said it was not Mandarin, it was spoken in a village dialect. Thankfully it had English subtitles.
