Mao's Last Dancer

On the Morning Show today on Channel 7 I was moved to see the previews of an up-and-coming film entitled: Mao's Last Dancer. What an amazing and interesting autobiography, I can't wait to read the book!

"Li Cunxin is a remarkable man born of a remarkable story. He recounts his determination, perseverance, vision, courage and hard work, and in particular, the sacred family values and integrity that he learned in poverty-stricken China, which has driven him to become one of the best dancers in the world. He tells of how the sixth of seven sons born to peasants grew up worshipping Mao Zedong before defecting to the United States."
