Narration by unknown critic, said,"As a film commemorating her grandfather, Jiang uses unadorned feeling and sincerity to wake up the tender part of each audience member. In fact, Jiang tells a story based on very personal experience. If it can't ignite the resonance of the audience, it may separate them as the plot develops. Jiang uses her delicacy as a female to depict the details and make them touching."

Jiang said, "This film sees the world through a child's eyes. As for what kind of a world she sees, what kind of a world she dreams of, I would recall my childhood years. It was a life that was not mundane. I've reflected that in the film. I think the viewers may find something they need in this film."

As a veteran actress, Jiang hasn't been a superstar, and she seldom makes entertainment headlines. As a female director, she extends her unassuming style and just tells her own childhood story that she has cherished. As for her directorial debut, Jiang is very confident. She believes being a first-time director has its own advantages.

She said, "A debut must be greenhand, compared to those who are veteran directors. But a debut has its beauty. Simply because it is not mature enough, there are some unique sparkles in it."

As for what the critics might say, and the box office results, Jiang takes it easy.

She said, "I have the guts to shoot this film, because I haven't thought too much. If I had thought too much, I might not have enough momentum to do it. I just did it from my sincere feelings. I think this is very cherishable. "

It's the sincerity that has helped Jiang to win applause. The film played to full houses in each of its three screenings at the Pusan Film Festival. It has won acclaim from both critics and audience members at home. Audience want to have stories about growing up in a past era, and they want to know about a film star's childhood years.
