1.? HAUNTING Shall we tell her? Will you tell her? ... in this situation most families in China would choose not to tell.. Maybe we should tell her ... After reading it, I was thinking: Will you tell her? (I feel that the "tell her" in this film is mainly about grandma, but it also contains other protagonists' "do you want to say XX". We often report good news and not bad news. 2. This film is very heart-warming, but sadness and joy are one and the same. Contradictions are always inseparable. There are a lot of cues and comedy memes that are familiar to me, very warm, and sad, and in the end they become that kind of bittersweet. 3. When this film was released, it was on the North American Slaughter Chart, but I don’t see a high rating on Youku now, but I really, really, really recommend it! This warm film is as "impressive" as the cool sci-fi and action blockbuster. (I have put it in the same position as Interstellar, maybe the resonance of my own has crazy extra points)? actual lie", telling Chinese stories in Hollywood. The director also relies on her lines to express what she wants to tell the audience, and you will also find that some Chinese audiences often talk about it (the resonance is a bit loud). Finally, I would like to say my own opinion. Considering what my aunt explained, I think that my grandmother knew about it first, and my grandmother may have been confused to face this sudden change. After all, grandma said: "...you must think about it...don't go to the horns...one's spiritual support is very important..." , Billie's neck I seem to break her straight! (I'm going to find out if this is what the role needs or what the actors are like. The wife is too uncomfortable and sometimes plays) Finally: I hope the wind will not stop, and our story will continue. It's a movie worth watching at different stages. *Continue to flip through the good films~

    Until the end, I didn't remember where I saw the exact same story. Only after reading the Wiki did I know that it was Lulu Wang's own story, which was broadcast on This American Life in 2016. She wrote and read it herself. Glad that the director has made so much progress after three years. The soundtrack and visual language are very good, and the director of Yicha has a double major in literature and music. Takeaway is that people should tell stories that they feel are worth telling, not stories that would be popular with mainstream Hollywood values. Come on, director.

    This can't really be regarded as discrediting China, right? ! If anything is untrue...no relatives criticized Billy for being hunched.

The Farewell quotes

  • Billi: [frustrated] Are you going to tell Nai Nai?

    Haiyan: I can't, Billi. I won't go against my family.

    Uncle Haibin: Billi, there are things you misunderstand. You guys moved to the West long ago. You think one's life belongs to oneself. But that's the difference between the East and the West. In the East, a person's life is part of a whole. Family. Society.

    Uncle Haibin: You want to tell Nai Nai the truth, because you're afraid to take the responsibility for her. Because it's too big of a burden. If you tell her, then you don't have to feel guilty. We're not telling Nai Nai because it's our duty to carry this emotional burden for her.

  • Jian: You're broke again? Are you always going to live like this?

    Billi: Poor but sexy? I hope so!
