The King of Masks (1996)

Same actor Zhu Xu, the grandpa, on both movie.
Both movie are about grandpa and granddaughter relationship
Very pure, organic, village vibe. Very heartwarming, touching movie.

Mask, masks, mask to cover the real emotional face, the painful face. The real face behind see the world, see the love one,. The art of mask to please the others, to entertain others. Sweat behind the mask is the fresh and real.,

Not a similar movie, but If you like Zhu Xu (the father) acting, you should watch The King of Masks. His acting was just so real and touches people hearts

Father daughter love. Poverty. Victim of society crime, strong will, survivor, justice, faith, strong bond, pure little girl

Pure innocent young girl, poverty survivor, justice, injustice, crime, gang, love, heart touching, strong will, bad cops, will to live,

Fatherly love, pure innocent young daughter, bad society, poverty, struggler, helping hands, corruption, injustice,

Both Chinese movie are about an elder gentleman found a young child.
He single handed raised the young child. Lots of hardship.
The young child grew up full of passion, intelligent and grew to understand the life ahead of them
Really heartwarming must watch movies
