Losing him does not matter. It is you who will be found and cherished. PS: For two days, I watched the same actor play the same kind of boy/man. (I watched it once at home when I was a child, my grandma said it was a good...

The idea is great, showing the hardships of women's awakening in different cultural backgrounds. But the shortcomings are also obvious. There are too many materials, and everyone's story is too dramatic, but the film capacity is limited, which eventually leads to the plot being too rushed, the lines are blunt, and there is a lack of more details to fill the role. About Chinese-American films, I prefer "Face". PS I watched this film to admire Yu Feihong's beauty, but I drooled at Tommy Tan...

For the characterization of the four stories, the supporting characters of each story and the objective factors of the protagonist are ignored. Although the four stories are well told, they are slightly superficial. But this is still a good film. The director is Chinese after all, and he expresses the delicate and sincere emotions in Chinese culture very well. In addition, when using the four mother-daughter stories in the whole film to extend to the thinking level of Chinese and Western...

I think there is a gap, maybe Americans or Chinese Americans can really understand this piece. The person who recommended me to watch before said that this film can be compared with Lee Ang's "Pushing Hands" and "Diet Men and Women". How could it be possible? The difference is too far. Ang Lee is...

At first it felt okay. As a result, the more I looked at the back, I realized that this was a formulaic and symbolic film, bearing the stigma of a film that was made in that era of cultural differences between China and the West. Both the language and the costumes were shot to cater to the Americans. The traditional Chinese values and resentment conveyed in it make people feel uncomfortable. Because I watched Shield, I looked back on Wen Mingna's previous movies, and I also saw Zhou Caiqin....

Mother never expects how much reward her daughter’s life will bring. Mother just hopes that her daughter will be happy and that her life will be different from her. She is always anxious to sum up all her injuries into experience. Let the daughter keep in mind, but the daughter seemed uncooperative or disgusted with this kind of "manipulation" at the time.. Oh, because the daughter is always like a mother, even if she grew up in a different cultural background of the...

Compared with the Snow Secret Fan, this film nearly 20 years ago is even more commendable. With a huge structure, the stories of the four pairs of mother and daughter can be said to be a portrayal of the status of women in the relationship between relatives in the old society, but they are also different. Maybe the relationship between my mother and daughter is easier to move me! It’s just that the finishing touch is a bit weak, and I’ve been looking forward to the best ending. . . (Brother...

Multi-threaded narrative and multiple structures are the strengths of Westerners. Wang Ying is obviously not good at this. The unfolding of each story uses the same technique, which is too monotonous. Too many stories will weaken the details and hinder each other, even with the same theme; the shots are still great, Wang Ying especially likes to use close-up shots and close-ups, which puts high demands on...

Joy Luck Club: What is the true liberation of women?
I recently watched "The Joy Luck Club" again, and the film begins with a floating swan feather and ends with the long-lost three sisters' affectionate embrace on the pier. It symbolizes a state of wandering from a foreign land, ultimately reaching a happy reunion with loved ones. At the end, I...

The Chinese translation of the title is really funny and
makes people think it's a comedy.
I read part of it in a college class, and when I saw the reprint on Weibo, I started looking for him to read it again.
Slow shots, slow stories, but the mother-daughter friendship leaps onto the screen. I...

Ying Ying: All around this house I see the signs. My daughter looks but she does not see. This is a house that will break into pieces. It's not too late. All my pains, my regrets, I will gather them together. My daughter will hear me calling, even though I've said no words. She will climb the stairs to find me. She will be scared because at first her eyes will see nothing. She will feel in her heart this place where she hides her fears. She will know I am waiting like a tiger in the trees, now ready to leap out and cut her spirit loose.
