从5/19/2023 到5/18/2024， 365 天，一场在历史上前所未有的全国性的“讲述我们的故事” 的运动在美国展开，共有超过 5 万名华裔美国人参与，在北美 40 个州举办了 500 多场《光明(Sight)》电影免费放映会（免费观看链接：sight.drmingwang.com），最终促成了美国历史上第一部以华裔第一代移民故事为题材并在美国主流院线上映的电影——《光明》得以圆满发行。该片于 2024 年 5 月 24 日由 Angel Studios 发行，在全美 2,118 家影院上映，并取得 720万美元票房，成为华裔电影在美国主流媒介堪称破冰之旅的重大突破。这场全国性的“讲述我们的故事”的运动不仅改变了一部电影的命运，更开启了华人主动书写我们在北美的历史，塑造身份，赢得尊重的新时代。但是，这一切只仅是刚刚开始。我们希望这个历史性的运动能够激励更多华裔美国人站出来，发出自己的声音，讲述我们的故事，让美国社会真正了解我们对这块土地做的卓越的贡献。在这篇文章里， 我想和华裔美国人同胞们分享一下我通过“Sight”学到的华人在美国怎样如何在美国主流媒介发声的一点体会。

华人之光 一美囯顶级眼科专家 好莱坞获奖大片《Sight 》 《光明》 原型（美国哈佛MIT 特级优等生一王明旭教授的传奇经历

美国的哈佛大学是国际著名的大学，能够进入哈佛大学就读是许多学子的梦想。而进入哈佛大学医学院的竞争则更为激烈。在国际华裔眼科医师中有一位颇具传奇色彩的人物。他在当年的全美国医学院入学考试中以总分最高分的成绩被哈佛大学医学院录取，并在毕业时获得优等生奖，不仅如此，他的毕业论文发表在世界最著名的学术杂志之一《Nature》上。他不仅取得了美国激光物理博士学位,并且在美国最好的眼科住院医生训练医院Wills眼科医院完成了residency以及在全美名列第一的眼科医院完成了角膜专科训练(cornea and refractive surgery fellowship). 这些成绩似乎已经足够精彩，但这些仅仅是王明旭医师成绩的一部分。他是世界上为数不多的同时具有激光物理博士学位的眼科医师之一，他率先在国际上开展了数种屈光手术，他建立了帮助盲人复明的基金会。令人难以相信的是他竟然还是全美国际交谊舞明星赛的名次得主，是所在的田纳西州华人商会 的发起人和主席，并是一位很好的钢琴和二胡演奏者。这一切成绩似乎超出了常人的能力，甚至某种程度上超出了常人的想象力。当问起他何以将如此多的工作和技能融于一身时，王明旭医师说“我喜欢把所做的事情做好，在困难和疲惫时热情会促使我尽力发挥自己的潜力，我也喜欢通过不断的努力来提高自己，这种不断超越自我的过程给我带来乐趣。”在与他的交流中可以感觉到，如他所言，他的成绩来源于勤奋、努力、不懈的热情和追求完美。

Dr. Ming Wang is a Harvard and MIT graduate and one of the few laser eye surgeons in the world who holds a doctorate degree in laser physics. The film "Sight," the first generation Chinese-American immigrant film in American mainstream media, is based on Dr. Wang's autobiography "From Darkness to Sight." 

As a teenager, he fought poverty and hardship in China and came to America with only $50 in his pocket and knew very few English words. But he saw nothing but opportunity and earned two doctorate degrees, one in laser physics and one in medicine. He graduated with the highest honors from Harvard Medical School and MIT Magna Cum Laude. 

What we learned through making the film “Sight” that may be beneficial to Chinese Americans who also want to share their stories

How a national “Telling Our Stories” movement, unprecedented in U.S. history, was created in 2023-2024 involving 50,000 Chinese Americans, 500 free Sight film shows (FREE link: sight.drmingwang.com) and across 40 states in North America, resulting in the FIRST first-generation Chinese American immigrant story film that gained wide North America release (in 2,118 theaters, with U.S. domestic box office of $7.2 million), and what have we learned in this historical movement about how we can inspire more Chinese Americans to stand up, speak out and tell our stories in the future?

A decade ago, it was difficult to find quality faith-based entertainment. Today, though, such options are seemingly endless. 

Christian titles are available on platforms like Netflix and Prime Video, alongside dedicated faith-based streaming services. Meanwhile, Christian titles arrive almost every month in theaters.

And despite what you may have heard, the best films in this genre can stand up to the best of mainstream entertainment. Everything in the faith genre has leveled up -- the storytelling, the production quality, the performances. Today’s faith-based movies are light years ahead of yesteryear’s. 

Compiling a best-of list is always difficult. For starters, you have to ask: What is a Christian film? For this compilation, we’re using a straightforward definition: a movie with strong Christian themes. It also needs to be generally family-friendly. To keep it simple, this list only includes movies released in theaters. 

Here are the 12 best Christian movies of 2024, in alphabetical order.

The producer for the biopic about the ubiquitous Nashville eye surgeon had hoped for $10 million in ticket sales over Memorial Day weekend

Brad SChmitt, Nashville Tennessean, May 29, 2024.

Movie poster for Sight, a 2024 topic about Nashville eye surgeon Ming Wang, set for May 24 release.

A Hollywood adaptation of Nashville eye surgeon Ming Wang's story grossed $3.5 million in its opening weekend, according to several movie industry trade organizations.

The movie "Sight" — released by independent inspirational-movie house Angel Studios — fell short of producer David Fischer's hopes for $10 million in ticket sales for its first three days out.
