[刮痧英文观后感]Gua Sha is a movie about the differences between American and Chinese culture.Xu datong is a video games designer in St.Louis.When his father visits from China,he performs Gua Sha (a Chinese traditional treatment) on his grandson,which leaves bright red marks on the skin and causes a lawsuit of child abuse.In the court,Datong loses his mind so that finally he loses custody of his son.I think this scene is shocking and thought-provoking to most of the Chinese audiences.But the most impressing scene to me is the ending.Datong wants to see his son in Christmas eve,he has to climb a pipe to the ninth floor which his son lives.I think the pipe is not only a pipe,but also a gap,a deep gap between American and 5000-year Chinese culture.He wants to climb over the gap and he will never succeed,perhaps no Chinese people really could succeed.It’s about assimilation into American culture,and not assimilation in an International city,like SF or NY or LA or Chicago,but St.Louis,MO (actually shot there).Really great acting,interesting story.Gua Sha is a treatment in traditional oriental medicine in which a wooden board repeatedly slides across the patient’s acupuncture acupressure massage points.It works in similar principles like that of acupuncture acupressure massage.This method would inevitably leave bruise on the skin,and the story begins here,when the visiting grandpa who does not speak any English used this traditional practice to treat the grandson when both son and daughter-in-law were at work.Sadly,in US,this is a story that repeats itself many times in the area where many oriental immigrants lives and all of these are due to simple misunderstanding between cultures.Gua Sha:Step-by-Step,by Arya Nielsen.If an acupuncturist is trained in Classical Chinese medicine,they will do this technique in their practice for pain,and for acute or chronic illness.--------《刮痧》这部电影讲述的是一个北京移民家庭正在美国生活时发生的故事：5岁的华裔孩子丹尼斯闹肚子发热,他的爷爷由于刚从北京到美国,不了解药品上的英文阐明,便用中国官方流传已久的刮痧疗法给丹尼斯治病,没想到这却成为了丹尼斯父亲许大同孩子的证据,闹到了法庭上走,刮痧英文观后感,观后感《刮痧英文观后感》.正在法庭上,一连串的辩论辩论更是相继而来,一个本来侥幸美好的家庭就这样转眼间变得四分五裂.对中国人来说只是一件小小事情的刮痧,为什么一到美国就酿成了一件要打官司的麻烦事了呢?刮痧正在中国经历了几百年以致是几千年的历史,为什么一到美国也酿成了儿童的违法行为了呢?这些标题都很自但是然地惹起人们对它的考虑.正在很多人瞧来,这些题手法出现是由于中西文化的差别,许大一致家的飞来横祸回根到底也是由于中西文化差别.但是,正在我瞧来,与其说许大一致家飞来横祸是由于中西文化差别所致,还不如说是由于法院没有对违法证据进行正确熟识与核实所致.由于中西文化差别对法院判案来说这自己就是一个客瞧存正在着的要素,它不可能会成为许大一致家飞来横祸的直接制造者.只要卖文化差别或者说文化盲区不被熟识时,才可能形成执法的不雄正,才可能给许大一致家带来横祸.

THE TREATMENT (GUA SHA)

by Rich Cline

A Chinese film shot completely on location in St. Louis, this is an off-beat hybrid that never quite works, even though it has a worthy and intriguing central premise. A young, successful Chinese immigrant couple (Tony Leung Ka Fai and Jiang Wenli) give their 5-year-old son (Dennis Zhu) a painless, ancient Chinese treatment called gua sha, which leaves marks on the boy's back. This alerts the authorities, who take the child away and charge the parents with abuse and neglect. Numerous court hearings ensue, followed by lots of overwrought melodrama, which will probably please Eastern audiences much more than Western ones. The acting is uneven (the Asian cast is superb; most of the Americans are, frankly, awful), as are the production values (very slick camera work sits at odds with a cheesy musical score). First-time director Zheng Xiaolong will probably find success back home with this cautionary tale of life in the Promised Land. But few Americans or Europeans will take its TV movie-of-the-week sensibilities very seriously.

Review by Rich Cline

Gua Sha had its world premiere at the St Louis International Film Festival

A compelling tale of culture clash in middle America, Gua Sha centres on a young Chinese couple (Leung and Jiang) who immigrate to St Louis with their bright young son (Zhu), who they're raising to be a proper American. Then a doctor treating the boy for a minor bump notices strange scarring on his back, social services step in to protect the child and a legal battle ensues, dragging the parents through the courts to prove them as abusive and neglectful, which of course they're not. The marks are from an ancient (and painless) Chinese medical treatment called gua sha.

OK, so it's not much more than a made-for-TV premise, and the filmmaking is pretty tame in many respects, tracing the obvious melodramatic storyline from the family's delirious happiness through the most bleak darkness imaginable. First-time director Zheng has an excellent technical crew behind him, but the performances are extremely uneven (the Asian cast is superb; most Yanks seem like they're from a local amateur theatre group). And finally, the cheesy musical score combines with overwrought plot points to alienate Western viewers, leaving us quite intrigued by the themes and story possibilities, but disappointed by the film itself.

Author: arya-5 (arya@guasha.com) from New York, NY

Gua Sha, known as kerik in Indonesia, Cao Gio in Vietnam (see Harvey Keitel's The Three Seasons) and khoud lam in Laos is a legitimate and effective therapy. In Asia it is usually done with a coin, Chinese soup spoon, slice of water buffalo horn, or even a slice of ginger. A simple cap with a rounded edge is quite good to use and available in most homes in the West. It was not commonly done with wood, but if smooth and the right edge it could be. There is a teaching text in English called Gua Sha. A Traditional Technique for Modern Practice, and a teaching video: Gua Sha: Step-by-Step, by Arya Nielsen.If an acupuncturist is trained in Classical Chinese medicine, they will do this technique in their practice for pain, and for acute or chronic illness.

Gua Sha - The Treatment (2001)

EmailWritten by pppatty on Jan-29-09 3:32am

From: pppatty.blogspot.com

Life is full of surprises. I religiously scour the German television schedules (which I receive by satellite) for oddities, particularly on the German/French arts channel Arte. I have found most of my silent collection there; for example, last week they showed a 2007 restoration of Intolerance (1916) and their selection of unusual cinema is matchless. The only problem with them (and all of the other German channels) is their propensity for overdubbing rather than relying on subtitles.

I noticed the above Taiwanese film in the afternoon schedules and didn't bother to check it out; I just noted that it was starring Tony Leung and I assumed it would be something pretty special. Well for a start it wasn't the Tony Leung of the recent Wong Kar Wai and Ang Lee films but the actor of the same name who starred in "The Lover" (1992), who is also a fine actor but not the one I was expecting. The next surprise is that this was a modern-day drama, set and filmed in St. Louis, Missouri and written primarily in English, which led to the very pleasant surprise that the movie was not dubbed but used German subtitles for the dialogue which switched between English and Mandarin (and I was able to cope with these for the brief non-English dialogue).

But enough about the background: the final surprise was how involving the story was. Leung plays a prize-winning computer game designer, who, together with his equally intelligent wife and US-born 6-year son, is trying to assimilate into the American life style and the American dream. He has brought over his non-English-speaking father from the mainland and hopes to obtain a green card for him. When the child falls at home and is taken to hospital for stitches, the doctors note the extreme bruising on his back and conclude that he has been abused; and the do-gooder social workers immediately remove the cosseted child from his home and very loving parents. All attempts to explain that the bruising is the result of an ancient Chinese health treatment known as Gua Sha -- and in fact administered by the grandfather -- do not impress the ignorant court and they deem the child permanently at risk. The Child Services lawyer takes pleasure in presenting the father as a violent man -- based on the kind of games he designs -- and provokes him into losing his temper in court which hardly helps his case. I don't want to go on to explain how this situation develops and how it resolves itself, even if the film does not appear to be on DVD at present, as the possible spoilers are many. I will just mention that the penultimate scenes involve Leung in a Santa Claus suit climbing up the drainpipe to the family's ninth floor apartment with a toy monkey in his arm -- real heart in your throat action. I could do with a lot more surprises like this one.

Review Summary

Hong Kong indie film icon Tony Leung stars in this Chinese production about cultural misunderstanding and intolerance. Datong (Leung) is a patrician of a St. Louis Chinese-American family and a designer of violent video games. When Datong's father (Zhu Xu) visits from China, he performs some traditional Chinese medicine on his young grandson. Though painless, the treatment leaves bright red marks on the skin, which are interpreted by the kid's teacher as welts. Soon the Child Welfare Agency is accusing the family of child abuse and transfers the kid to a foster home. This film was screened at the 2001 Cannes Film Festival. ~ Jonathan Crow, All Movie Guide

The scrapping of a good film,plot to true self-purity,let a person Joe coughlin,cuirenleixia.Film deduce the human world of affection,love,friendship and to social harmony is yearning,meanwhile,desire,because of the difference of culture and cause cross-cultural communication failures also show incisively and vividly.The story happened in saint Louis Mississippi River - United States central city of datong,actor xu united for eight years,your career greater success and your family happiness,as a game developers,new developed game in the annual sales unblocked,industry awards on congress,he excitedly told everybody:I love the United States,my American dream has come true.However,the next of something that happened made him awake,son Dennis fever in the stomach,first came to the United States grandpa due to look not to understand language on captions in English and use Chinese traditional Chinese medicine therapy "gua sha" to heal,and grandson this just became xu datong a small accident after evidence of child abuse,court another unexpected witnesses and testimony that he baikouquan oilfield.the difficult arguing,eventually lost the son's custody.In order to let the old father saw going home on one side,xu datong grandson violate the law the boy from welfare homes "steal" out -- In order to let the son returned to happy family and forced and his wife separated,In order to get back to his son's gift and insane and robber fights,For the Christmas Eve and the family reunions and risking were dashed along pipeline risk resolutely climbed in the ninth floor of house.Panning,let a person surging,cherishing,deeply thinking.

The scrapping of the performance of the Chinese people and American people's differences,not only in sino-american laws and moral standards,etc,and conceptions,even touch legal theory,theory of TCM and so on many issues.Due to the differences of spacetime,caused the sino-us eastern and western culture and concept - the different performance for the behavior,and then the conflict.Differences from on time for,mainly for countries the contradiction between the traditional and modern,From the space for countries in the region,history,politics,economy and other reasons caused the differences between Chinese and western,characterized by traditional ethnic background of the spirit,cultural background and philosophical background,etc.So,on the analysis of the film,we can't only stay in specific story aspect,but from big cultural background,from a historical tradition analysis.

We first come from the cultural origin of respects,first of all,Chinese and western in philosophy are different,the western advocate of rationalism of positivism,its medical - anatomy,is built on the philosophical thinking,so for "gua sha" the mouth of qi of learning is not understand,And the characteristics of Chinese philosophy is the "nature and humanity" is to explore the relationship between nature and humans.Confucian moral,teach how heavy humanities life; The evolution of the Taoist heavy universe,teach a person to adapt to nature.In the movie,we can see that court,when xu datong told them "gua sha" the principle,the presence of American performance,the judge could not understand his defense,supposing that he was in disorderly speak,even his attorney cannot in this respect understand him.Secondly,in the awareness in China is important group consciousness,pay attention to integral value,think people should do contribution for the family and society,While western stressed is individualism,the pursuit of individual freedom,free thinking and choice.In the film we can also see that xu datong in order not to let the old father worry,how and wife painfully conceal things truth; In order to let the old father saw coming back on one side,the grandson how difficult the Dennis from welfare homes "steal" come out.Chinese is the importance of family ethics,they values everyone in the family social position,emphasize home of ideas and feelings.Western culture has been respect due to personal idea,they've accepted the independent spirit "education,and family feelings is relatively weak.American parents quite respect child freedom of action,in big principle range,let children free development.Again,the Chinese people's mode of thinking is integrated,admit overall and things of widespread contact between man and nature,the pursuit of perfect and unified.Western thinking mode is analysis of type,this thinking culture group of form relatively formally,right,responsibility and identity of distribution orderly.So,for the Chinese people,American thinking seems apathy,do not speak human,Westerners believe that the Chinese thought obscure.

We again to see ideas cultural differences,it is deep cultural differences,for instance people values,ways of thinking,social mentality,aesthetic idea,etc.A man can in another culture life is very long time,grasp their language,understand their custom,but may not understand some of its values,xu datong is living an example.Because in the deep culture,xu datong represent remains China's traditional culture,which embodies the attitude of a woman,friends,view of view,etc.In view of things,americans like to face the fact that his own viewpoint,and master reliable information.Thus we can see americans deal with problems to a fact-based others.hold.But Chinese in the face of facts,human feelings seem more more important.In the movie,we can see court child welfare bureau of the individual evidence,please list out of one witness how persuasive,although the Chinese people feel some incredible,And xu datong described how love only his own son,but no strong evidence,In the film and a detail,is two boys,xu datong in nanning-guiyang-kunming orchid face dozen children slap,he later in nanning-guiyang-kunming balaam said:"I hit a child is to show respect for you,which is for your face." Here,the eastern and western involved in children's attitude problem.Chinese children as a private property,is my raw belongs to me.Although xu datong think dozen children is to the friends of respect,but in Queensland orchid opinion,hitting is illegal,no matter who is playing.Americans believe that parents,children are equal,parents seldom for children to decide what things,but rather let its rely on own strength to work hard.Friend in view,both eastern and western cultures also contains a different meaning.Edward Stewad&Milton Bennet such discusses American friends:"although americans keep many friendly unofficial ties,but they rarely have that kind of deep and sustain years.The relation between the ideal realm is American friendship,based on natural occurrence,attraction and warm personal feelings basis.People choose my friends,at the same time,they also friends or relations and social work obligations separate." In China,the situation differently.Friends cultured is time longer the better,commitment,the more good.The ideal realm is for my best Pal,go through hell in refuse to die.To Chinese friend's great expectations,if you have difficulty,ought to donate whatever they can.When Abram convicts xu datong nanning-guiyang-kunming when hitting the child,xu datong accused nanning-guiyang-kunming LAN "I carried you as his friend,but still you in court betray me!" And rakkon orchid feels very grievance and don't understand:"I was just telling the truth just." Honesty is America's most basic one of the virtues of,you let an American lie also be equivalent to let him give up the basic values.

Sino-us differences in performance of the film,but also expressed cultural assimilation,cultural fusion of a kind of yearning.Abram passed from Queensland Chinatown porcelain store,personal try "gua sha"; From xu datong get rid of shows,downstairs police,residents erupted wixh applause,from he climbed the ninth floor of the house,the house and the children of amram welfare leadership congratulated him holy happiness,welcome home,audiences seem to see the westerners preached the Chinese and western cultural barriers,began to approach of traditional Chinese culture,and eventually conquered all human feelings.The end of the story is perfect,but also must not ignore the cultural difference side,which requires us to strengthen exchanges and communication,hope in the near future,a "datong" world really will appear in front of us!

Impression On the Film Gua Sha Treatment

"Person in the United States,it is very difficult to blend into local culture." I read in the circle to be optimistic about the film "Gua Sha," after the greatest feeling.With the advance of the screen,the interpretation of the story,an American of Chinese society now ran the family encountered.

After years of hard work,Xu Datong,a Chinese immigrant to the US,has finally achieved success as an outstanding video game designer.With his promising career and loving family,he feels he has become a true American.Datong’s father comes over from China,and uses a traditional Chinese medical technique,called guasha,to treat Datong`s son,Dennis.Unexpectedly,an American doctor thinks the bruises on Dennis` back left by the guasha treatment are signs of child abuse,and the finger is pointed at Datong.The Treatment is a moving portrayal of the enormous gulfs between cultures and their possible repercussion between cultures and their possible repercussions.

The film “Gua Sha-the Treatment” reflects the difference of value and culture views between western society and orient society.China society has been receiving impact of Confucianism for thousands years.Confucianism is known as paying regard to human relationship and ethic.Piety,courtesy and loyalism are most important ethic.But in Western culture which is more emphasis on individualism,independence and equality.So conflicts in culture and value are unavoidable.These conflicts have shown in the story.

In Chinese culture,physical punishment is commonly used by Chinese family.They think this will help to growing up.But in western society it is absolutely forbidden.Any abusing children was viewed as illegal conduct.As to show respect to friends,Da Tong Xu punished his own son physically in front of friends.But this was misinterpreted as violence by his foreign friends.This is a misunderstanding in culture between East and West.

How to avoid the tragedy of the story?We must strengthen the East-West cultural exchange and learning,and only with respect to different cultures and inclusive will it be possible to avoid the culture and values of conflict.

A Traditional Technique for Modern Practice, and a teaching video: Gua Sha: Step-by-Step, by Arya Nielsen.If an acupuncturist is trained in Classical Chinese medicine, they will do this technique in their practice for pain, and for acute or chronic illness.

Gua Sha is a treatment in traditional oriental medicine in which a wooden board repeatedly slides across the patient's acupuncture/acupressure/massage points. It works in similar principles like that of acupuncture/acupressure/massage. This method would inevitably leave bruise on the skin, and the story begins here, when the visiting grandpa who does not speak any English used this traditional practice to treat the grandson when both son and daughter-in-law were at work.

Sadly, in US, this is a story that repeats itself many times in the area where many oriental immigrants lives and all of these are due to simple misunderstanding between cultures.
