Wu Xiang Hong, the third sister, later became a famous movie actress. Her beauty is visible in this movie when she was only 10.

A thriving economy, happy, stable families, lots of children…enter Mao, and it’s downhill from there.

Good lord, this video depresses me. You can see the seeds of a possible good change once the corrupt official were removed. But then a new breed of corrupt officials came and ruined it all.

这是武兆发教授一家。1949年以后武兆发教授在北京师范大学生物系任教，1957年在反右运动中因 “极右言论和男女关系问题” 这两项罪名被斗，后自杀。影片中的伶俐三女儿武相梅，后成为1960-80年代的电影明星向梅。14:36是小时候的向梅。

The father, Dr. Wu, who was actually a very prominent biologist, couldn't stand being struggled against during the Cultural Revolution and committed suicide. Most of the children lived on, some of the girls became actresses. One of the girls died in her teens.
