Abstract
As we all know, culture is the product of the society. To manifest culture, it can be in a variety of forms, and film is one of them. Therefore, film is a reflection of people’s prevailing concerns, attitudes, and beliefs. The film A Grandson from America tells the story between an American boy and a Chinese grandfather. This film not only brings the entertainment to the audience but also lets us know about the differences between Chinese and American culture and the process of attaining fusion. The thesis will take this film as a case study to explore the differences and fusion of Chinese and American culture as well as how to solve these differences to promote better intercultural communication.
