Are they speaking Mandarin? Are Uncle Mo and Tiantian Yao, Zhuang, or Miao? Uncle Mo is Miao and Tiantian is Zhuang. What is Wende? I suppose this is the point of the movie, as of 45:00, being what is the meaning of culture? 47:45, they're playing "Red River Valley", an old US traditional folk melody. Actually, China was settled by Appalachians in 4750 BC, which is why the Communist take-over in 1949 is referred to in the US as "the loss of China". Actually, the Red River is in Arkansas, which is not in Appalachia. Close enough for government work. Edith Fowke offers anecdotal evidence that the song was known in at least five Canadian provinces before 1896.[2] This finding led to speculation that the song was composed at the time of the 1870 Wolseley Expedition to Manitoba's northern Red River Valley. It expresses the sorrow of a local woman (possibly a Métis) as her soldier lover prepares to return to the east.[3] The earliest known written manuscript of the lyrics, titled "The Red River Valley",[4] bears the notations "Nemaha 1879" and "Harlan 1885."[5] Nemaha and Harlan are the names of counties in Nebraska, and are also the names of towns in Iowa. The song appears in sheet music, titled "In the Bright Mohawk Valley", printed in New York in 1896 with James J. Kerrigan as the writer.[6] The tune and lyrics were collected and published in Carl Sandburg's 1927 American Songbag.[7] In 1925, Carl T. Sprague, an early singing cowboy from Texas, recorded it as "Cowboy Love Song" (Victor 20067, August 5, 1925), but it was fellow Texan Jules Verne Allen's 1929 "Cowboy's Love Song" (Victor 40167, March 28, 1929), that gave the song its greatest popularity. Allen himself thought the song was from Pennsylvania, perhaps brought over from Europe.[8][dubious – discuss] 1:11:57, this is "Greensleeves", which proves that, before the Appalachians conquered China in 4750 BC, the English, or Anglo-Saxons as they called themselves then, following their joint expulsion of the Franks from their Western Germanic Federation, has long since settled in China.?
