Echoes of the Rainbow


Plot
Eight-year-old Jin-Er (who goes by the nickname Big Ears) lives with his parents and his sixteen-year-old brother Jin-Yi in a shoe shop on Wing Lee Street in late 1960s Hong Kong. Jin-Er looks up to his brother, who is a champion runner at the local high school, earns top grades, is a talented musician, and is very popular; Jin-Er's parents and teachers often scold him for not being as good as his big brother. Jin-Yi has a girlfriend, Fang Fei, who comes from a wealthy family, and whose family moves away to the United States to escape the "lawless" situation in Hong Kong. Jin-Yi gradually becomes aware of the inequalities in Hong Kong society of that time, both through interactions with a cocky British policeman who extorts money from his father in exchange for letting them keep their shop (and who insists that Jin-Yi will never "make it big" because his English isn't good enough) and through his first time seeing the inside of Fang Fei's family's mansion. Most of this is told through Jin-Er, the film's narrator.
.
Not long before Fang Fei leaves, Jin-Yi's grades start declining and he takes third place in a race he had hoped to win. One day he collapses suddenly after a typhoon nearly destroys the family's house, and his father takes him to the hospital, where he is diagnosed with leukemia. His parents search for a doctor who can cure him but find none, and his condition worsens until he has to remain in the hospital, where the nurses treat him poorly and extort money from his parents in exchange for basic care. Jin-Er, who spends much of his free time stealing trinkets around town, tries to offer them all to his brother in attempt to cheer him up, but Jin-Yi doesn't accept any of them. Fang Fei returns from the United States and visits him in the hospital, where they share their first kiss, but Jin-Yi dies shortly thereafter. Years later Jin-Er, narrating retrospectively, remarks that "time is the greatest thief". In the film's final scene, Jin-Er and his mother are shown visiting Jin-Yi's grave, and Jin-Er, now a teenager, recounts a lesson Jin-Yi had taught him about double rainbows.

Russell Grant's Daily Horoscopes: Wednesday 14th September 2011

.
Low from $14.99 to Get Your Fashion Lucky Horoscope Clothes, Saves A Lot. Just Be Quick!
.
Aries (Mar21/Apr20) Your intention was always to return responsibilities you took over from a colleague or relative to their rightful owner. Whether you took these on to do them a favour or because they couldn't cope at the time, you never intended it to be a permanent arrangement. Some people seem to be thinking differently. It's not going to be easy to get someone to take back commitments they never liked in the first place. Even so, you should persevere as it isn't fair on you for them to take advantage like this.
 .
Taurus (Apr21/May21) Creativity is rampant throughout your world; you aren't the only one who is coming up with some great suggestions. Inventive ideas are being shared, some being put to practical use at a rapidly increasing rate. If you happen to be operating in a market driven by choice you need to react rapidly or lose out to competitors. With new incentives cropping up every day, don't spend too long thinking about how, why or when to put your own ideas into practice. Just do it!
 .
Gemini (May22/June21) Ignorance is not bliss; it can be lonely, sad and a waste of your valuable time. Why, for instance, put so much effort into a relationship when your instinct tells you a partner is being disloyal? Why believe that if you don't face up to certain facts, everything will be fine and nothing will change? Bury your head in the sand and the hurt, disappointment and sense of betrayal will be doubled when you do eventually accept what's going on. If you pretend ignorance, you'll never be truly happy.
 .
Cancer (June22/July23) Stay focused as distractions of any sort will upset the flow of your work. Even if it means you have to find a quiet corner and get your head down for the whole day, this may be the only way you can perform a task that requires a high degree of concentration. The calmer you are, the easier you will find it to handle the challenge. There will be plenty of advice and offers of help coming your way but in the end you should do what's best for you. This could mean performing a task without anyone else's interference.
 .
Leo (July24/Aug23) Don't be too quick to decline an offer or proposition without negotiating further. Someone is prepared to improve an offer or make changes to a proposal if a compromise will suit you both. Unexpected events could, in a roundabout way, boost your financial position. This is not a typical day for you. If you have problems, don't hold back from asking around and learning from other people's experiences. This could save you time and cash. You don't always like to swerve but opening your mind to new options could take you on an interesting journey.
 .
Virgo (Aug24/Sept23) You don't have to go so far as to reinvent yourself but you could benefit through changing your perception of a situation. Start listening as well as talking because you aren't the only one with a point of view and some ideas others have are worth considering. Changes needed are two sides of the same coin: the change in the way you see yourself and amending your opinion of others. You might think only your views matter but once you acknowledge those of others, you will also start moving towards a compromise.
 .
Libra (Sept24/Oct23) Being self centred and harsh does not make a senior colleague or official happy, even if they might look it! Someone is acting as if the whole world revolves around them but this is the only way they know how to behave to achieve the results they are hoping for. Not every boss has good leadership qualities and not every official is happy in their role. Showing a less hostile and more understanding response to their demands could help the day go more smoothly.
 .
Scorpio (Oct24/Nov22) Doing things you love to do with the people you love to be with is the cornerstone of happiness. A chance invitation to attend a function or community exercise will introduce you to people who share many of your interests and favourite pastimes. Besides adding an extra zest to the day, you will feel as if someone you meet is the person you've been searching for all your life. Finding a soul mate will make you feel as if you have found your true purpose in life.
 .
Sagittarius (Nov23/Dec21) You may have had better days but you've had worse ones too! Having to prove you are capable of a task others are expecting you to fail at is putting you under some strain. It will take a lot of effort not to fall down every time you make it to the next level but you will keep going. Brace yourself for the frustrations ahead that bring progress down to a crawl. Once you've had more practice at a difficult task, you will start feeling more capable and less tense and nervous.
 .
Capricorn (Dec22/Jan20) It's pretty selfish of a friend or relative to expect you to live your life according to their rules. If you're seeking another person's approval and they're harder to please than you thought they'd be, you're going to be exceedingly unhappy. You're coming to the conclusion they don't understand you at all and they have no idea what makes you tick. You want to please others but you want to be yourself. The solution is: to accept there are some opinions you won't ever share and to be more militant about being you!
 .
Aquarius (Jan21/Feb19) Everything you touch or try to do will seem to be jinxed today. Gremlins are in the works and frustrations are plentiful. If you can find some peace, listen to music or do something creative. This might help you return to whatever you're failing at miserably, in a better frame of mind! Press on as best as you can. Eventually someone or something will help you overcome the stumbling blocks stopping you from getting on as well as you would like.
 .
Pisces (Feb20/Mar20) Even if you're trying to keep things simple, someone else is trying to make life complicated for you. You might be satisfied with your recent accomplishments but a friend or colleague thinks you can do even better. You don't have to take on new challenges just to improve your competitive edge and gain another person's respect. However, you just aren't as ambitious and they won't understand how you can be content in leading a simple and less competitive lifestyle.

Beijing's Tattoo Convention - a design, which ranges from around $78 to $235 (US)

The often painful art of tattooing is drawing an increasing number of young Chinese. Even the cost of a design, which ranges from around $78 to $235 U.S. dollars didn't diminish the number of enthusiasts at Beijing's Tattoo Convention. And not only does sporting a tattoo enhance one's cool factor -- fans are creating their own unique patterns or finding a design that best matches their personality. 
.
SOUNDBITE: Zhou Min, 26-year-old tattoo fan, saying (Mandarin): "This pattern is very colourful. It symbolizes the great power of the female leaders in African tribes. That's why I chose it. It's very special. I like it very much." In China, tattooing emerged more than two thousand years ago when words were pierced into prisoner's faces as a form of punishment, and so linked to depravity. And during the Cultural Revolution, Mao Zedong banned tattoos calling them a manifestation of impurity and antisocial activities. But tattoo artist Yang Qingwen disagrees and says the skin etching is an art form. 
.
SOUNDBITE: Yang Qingwen, 25-year-old tattoo artist, saying (Mandarin): "The old generations can't accept tattoos. Generally, it's easier for young people to accept and embrace them. It's hard to convince the older generations that the tattoo is an art form." 60 artists were kept busy creating intricate and colourful skin designs. And for this art form, it really is a case of no pain, no gain. Tara Cleary, Reuters.
