Hey, What do you expect from a country that excludes every other country from a "World Series"?
-
@Scottcreek942 you are SOOOO ignorant. The movie has nothing to do with "the novel", and should you have seen the movie, you would know it. ...there's more than just Ernest Hemingway out there, you know?
-
It means there's nothing new under the sun, it's from the Bible.

Watched it like 5 times
love it
but always confused what's it's all about

@spookytom I know you wrote that 2 years ago, but i feel compelled: it doesn't matter how long Chinese culture has been around, but rather how long the Bible has been around since it is the source for the title. Also, saying that American culture began in 1776 is extremely problematic. Are you implying that the label "American" is all that makes the culture of the colonies American? Whatever culture America has, since you imply it is different, is not tied directly to the date of its founding.

hands touching butts? definitely not faithful to the novel.

With all the respect to American culture but can we leave the 'everything is coppied from America' for a minute please. 'The Sun Also Rises' is an old Chinese saying. It's been around for a long long time and it reflects the Chinese values and an possitive attitudes towards life even when time is rough. So don't drag this completely oriental movie into the American culture.

It's completely symbolism. The plot is not supposed to make sense, and its purpose is to provide scattered memory of a generation. I personally found the film is very beautiful and haunting, but could not explain why.

The tile For American may mean Hemingway, but for Chinese means a philosophy metaphor" no matter what your plight was worst today, the sun also rise tomorrow". How an optimistic life attitude. I really appreciate it.

You are incredibly ethnocentric
You may not believe this, but the world does NOT revolve around American culture- which has only been around since 1776. Chinese culture has been around for THOUSANDS of years. Why should they care if there's an American book with a similar title?
There's NO copyright even in the US for titles, & there have been several American films with IDENTICAL names. Besides, this is a CHINESE film!
Artists can call their books, films or plays anything they want.

the sun also rises is a reference to the biblical passage from Ecclesiastes. It doesn't relate to the hemingway novel.
