It passed the censors partly because the actress is Italian. The plot was weird. But it didn’t stop it from becoming a hit. I wrote China’s War on Fun https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/27/business/china-war-on-fun-earrings-tattoos.html … because China’s retreat in freedom of expression is shocking to people like me.https://twitter.com/LiYuan6/status/1111557690059157504 …

When I was growing up in China in the 1980s, the Communist Party disliked pop music, flared pants, permed hair, love stories and even kissing.The first movie kiss in modern China didn’t take place until 1980. It’s an absurd, uncomfortable scene.starts 1:20 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1z_W59DpTNA …
