1. Ang Lee is a first-class director. All the conflicts and exchanges between people are so natural and comfortable for him to deal with. 2. Ang Lee tells stories a lot. This film shows the audience the communication between father and son, the communication between gay lovers, the communication between East and West. What to do when there is a conflict, and how to deal with it so as not to hurt the feelings of others. 3. Shows the intersection of many eastern and western cultures. The story of an eastern family in the western city of New York for a traditional marriage event. Lots of funny humor is also shown. In order not to make the parents sad, the homosexual found a girl to get married in a fake marriage. The parents went to Chongyang to arrange the wedding for their son. This story itself is very interesting. A person, to give a satisfactory account to all who love him, this is life! 4. Ang Lee told the seemingly simple story so naturally, to make the audience comfortable, and there was no drama, and he added so many social phenomena and caused people to think. The father played by Lang Xiong raised his hand and seemed to surrender at the end.

    Ang Lee's only line expresses the secret, the indescribable disgust and sadness of that extremely real and lively wedding banquet, which is rarely seen in such a profound and true reflection of this kind of Chinese culture. When Dad Gao finally spoke English, he realized that everything was a disguised maintenance of love. However, it was clear that everything was still mutual love and tolerance in the end.
