The interactions and contacts of different cultures become more and more frequent, bringing conflicts and integration. Films are mirrors of cultures. They are one of the most important media for cross-cultural communication. Nowadays, more and more English films appear in the Chinese market. The film Big Hero 6 is an influential one. In Big Hero 6, both American and Chinese cultures are demonstrated. In the present study, Big Hero 6 is selected for the analysis of Chinese and American cultural conflicts and integration.
