     When I first heard that Zhang Yimou, China's leading director most well-known for Hero in the West,
a question immediately came into my mind: Would A Simple Noodle Story be directed by the good Zhang
Yimou or the bad Zhang Yimou? The answer:neither.
     Starting with his first time as a cinema-photographer on Yellow Earth right after graduating from film
school in the early 80s, everything Zhang shot was inspiring. In the late 80s and early 90s, he directed
several movies already considered classics, including the banned (禁止) To Live.
     A Simple Noodle Story is set in the late Ming Dynasty (1368~1644), follows several amusing characters
working in a restaurant in the faraway, but naturally beautiful, western province of Gansu. Zhang brought
together a group of popular comedic (喜劇的) actors led by Xiao Shenyang, who shot to fame earlier last
year because of his very funny styles. Xiao Shenyang's character, Li Si, is having an affair with his boss's
wife, who is simply called "Boss' Wife" throughout the movie.
     A Simple Noodle Story, which started national screening Friday, is already bringing in money, scoring
a total box office income of 67.1 million yuan? ($9.83 million) by Sunday morning and is expecting its first
weekend to reach 100 million yuan ($14.65 million).
     In spite of the box office success, the film has received mixed reviews. Most local media admitted Zhang's
success in entertaining the public, but writer Han Han wrote in his blog that A Simple Noodle Story is more
like a long-drawn-out TV comedy and that Zhang has made no improvement in directing since his first film.
     In his defense, Zhang said that he was just trying to have fun with the film. "I'm not a master of artistic
films. I am just trying to make a fun movie."

     One year ago today, seven patients shared their stories of illness and recovery on the New York Time Well
(a blog), according to a report published in April,2009.
     They were the first Patient Voices, a regular series that offers a first person (第一人稱的) description of
the challenges patients face as they deal with different kinds of health problems. Since the first Patient Voices
appeared, New York Times producer Karen Barrow has continued to give a voice to a lot of patient stories.
     We heard from Jacqueline Castine of Bloomfield Hills, Mich,who had bipolar disorder (躁郁癥), and whose
son also suffered from mental (精神的) illness."I could not save him," she said."I could not fix (懲罰 ) him.
He leaves a beautiful daughter and a very sad mother."
     And there is runner Alyssa Johnson,43,who was training for the Boston Marathon in 2003 when she began
showing the first signs of Parkinson's disease." Sometimes when I'm running I'll come to a long downhill, and
my legs work the way they used to work and my arm swings (擺動) the way it used to. It's like running before Parkinson's, and that's the best feeling.
     And then there's the voice of Robin Grinsted, 50, of Swansea, S. C.,who has H. I. V. She is refused by her
church and feels lonely."They're not accepting," she said." But I know there will be people putting their arms
around me some day."
