To Taste a Hundred Herbs "raises the filmmakers' investigation of rural China to a metaphysical level. Here, the directors salute the traditional Chinese spirit as embodied by a traditional Chinese doctor... The movie starts with Dr. Shen singing 'O Come All Ye Faithful' in Chinese (clip available in QuickTime or MP3). As a practicing Catholic, he's part of a Long Bow minority. Yet as a medical practitioner he's a focal point of village life."

Michael Sragow, San Francisco Examiner
Sept. 14, 1986
