Although "The Jewel of Denial" marks Liang's first foray into the world of composing, he says composing is a potential career...
...foreign film opens today across the country, and to some it might seem oddly familiar. Winner of numerous international film awards, including Italy's prestigious Donotello for Best Foreign Language Film and the Sundance Film Festival Audience Award, Train of Life is yet another foray into the human condition during the events of World War II.

And as Gara stood over a dead Dark Schneider, tears welled in my eyes as he criticized his own inability to work with...
