Looking for some relaxation? Longing for some Western culture? Well the Internet can solve your problem; go to www.tudou.com its a site in the Chinese language a bit like iPlayer.
Once you are in the site scroll to the bottom of the home page and there is a search field, type in the name of the film you want to watch and press return, or the button on the right hand side of the search field. The site then searches for the film you want and comes up with a set of links with thumbnails.
This is the tricky part; for one film you will see there are several parts - the parts are roughly 20 sections of a film - if you hover the cursor over the title of the thumbnail, just below, the description in Chinese language and, usually, the English language, will appear and you can find 'Part 1/6', say. Click on the part you want and another window opens after a few seconds with the film running.
You can go to full-screen mode, pause, and re-play.
If you are really clever with the Chinese language then once you have done your search look at the margin and you can, I am told, choose an uninterrupted version of the film - but my Chinese is not up to that just yet!
