Abstract

Culture is the accumulation of all nationalities in the long history, and each culture has its own characteristics. Because of the great differences between different cultures, misunderstandings often occur in the process of intercultural communication, which may cause unnecessary troubles. Therefore, it is self-evident that intercultural communication is important. From the perspective of cross-cultural communication, this paper will take the cultural differences in the film A Grandson from America as a starting point, and use Hofstede’s Value Dimension Theory to carefully analyze the cultural differences and fusion between China and America reflected in the film, aiming to explore the countermeasures to the cultural conflict between China and America, and eventually to promote the cultural development and prosperity of Chinese and Western cultures in the current international environment.
