UNIT 11 CULTURE

This week in class we watched the movie The Last Train Home. It is a great representation of the many cultural differences and similarities that exist between the US and China. For example, when the main character returns home to her parents, she has a massive fight with her father. This kind of situation is one that families all around the world can relate to. As for the differences between the cultures, the most obvious one was population size. Shots of bustling train stations throughout the film are shocking, as the usual crowds of America's transportation hubs pale in comparison to the ones in China.
