Chinese American Journeys: Joan Chen, Pioneering Actress | Committee of 100

[@yingyima8413]

I am really touched by this powerful speech. She is such a great story-teller.

[@jephybean]

She clearly gets it from her grandmother

[@toolman67]

Wonderful speech and I truly loved her film, Xiu Xiu - The Sent Down Girl. Why this film is not restored, remastered and not able to see a digital blu-ray release is beyond me.

[@explorerofunknownworlddept6232]

This is an absolute awful film as "Xiuxiu". I, as a key wetness during that period, rarely or even never saw or heard of any of the scene "noveled" by Yan Geling's high "imagination", and directed by Chen Chong (Joan) who created by her imaged horrible scene. This Chen's speech just reflected her quite suite into another reality as a perfect opportunist. Many Chinese foreign students are opportunists as an American Admission Officer, a well-known Chinese Expert's wife, firmed asserted, angrily. Chen, is not exceptional, but as a normal and formal dumbness of an easily brain-washed human (Manchurian Candidate), when into another reality, rather a great decent human with integrity. In Chinese, called "入乡随俗"， ironically. As long as denounce her or their own original country or motherland, as a political agenda, their "arts" will gain another hemisphere's strong welcome and loud applauds 👏。 啊啊😯 . Even westerners selves realized this too, as a weak point in west. The question is, dare Chen Chong or/& Yan Geling attack west by saying their hypocrites, or tell west public you mistake many numbers and events and incidents in my original country, though many absurdities did/ do happen, just like in west?

A wonderful thread in our american tapestry! An intelligent, articulate, thoughtful woman. Easy on the eyes as well ! Thanks for choosing the USA ! Our country is better for your choice.!

What??? Are you a comedian? A blind and deaf nation, who didn't see and didn't hear the plights of the 99% crying but only protecting the 1% on the expenses account of everyone else. Looking your homeless permeated every single cities in the US, look the wars that American loved bombed the world to Stone Age. Now Ukraine, next push by the US in pipeline is Taiwan. Man, wake up see the truth and tell the reality.

[@drannoc100]

Great organization? I think you are greater than the rest that you had the courage to tell that story. Please consider making more movies about the Cultural Revolution from other Chinese authors. The world needs to see more tragedies made by the CCP.

[@kimran6133]

This is such a beautiful life story though sad and triumphant ♥️

1001 tales help us to keep the human part of the written and unwritten history.

[@yanfey]

That authority voice she made sounds like Daniel day Lewis in the there will be blood

[@drannoc100]

Sorry for your grandpa. Many suicides in China then were actually murder. Hope you will help the rest of the Committee 100 understand the question what would happen to them without America, not the other way around… And lives of Chinese matter also, then decide how CCP can be treated.

[@joellis5915]

Are you still walking dreaming? When everyone else in the world already woke up to see the atrocities that US committed against "Humanities" globally.

幼儿时就有外婆培养，那么英语是陈的“母语”。So, nothing great.,nothing great at all! Chen, Listen, can you stop charming some people by attacking your motherland China??？？？？上海外语学院不是很难考入啊，特别对于上海人来说。Some of your English pronunciation is sick.

Joan, came across this! Absolutely eloquent and you are as beautiful as you were years ago in college.

[@explorerofunknownworlddept6232]

@@seagreen6442 she's absolutely an opportunist, rather a person sticks to his/ her sound and firm principles. Yan Geling later on too. American insiders consider many Chinese students in overseas are absolute opportunists. When I heard on that, I didn't argue, rather silently agreed. Easily to be brain washed are common features on Chinese, no matter where you go, by "入乡随俗” to gain opportunities. Yes, for survive, maybe. But for public propaganda, will be another story.
