Gao Weitong, who settled in the United States, is a homosexual. He lives with his lover, an American man named Simon, in Manhattan, New York. But Gao Weitong's parents in Taiwan did not know that their son was gay, and they kept urging Guowei to get married soon, so as to inherit the incense of the Gao family. It happened that Gao Weitong, an illegal female immigrant from the mainland, was living in Gao Weitong's apartment, so Simon came up with the idea of ​​marrying Weitong and Gu Weiwei. This not only appeased Wei Tong's parents far away in Taiwan, but also enabled Gu Weiwei to get the green card he coveted, and also maintained the cohabitation relationship between Simon and Wei Tong. This seemingly foolproof strategy has led to more complicated incidents. Wei Tong's parents came to New York with joy when they heard the good news, and arranged a happy event for their son. So all kinds of emotional disputes and interpersonal conflicts unfolded behind a bustling Chinese-style wedding banquet.

    It's also quite rare to get a Lei film on the 250 list... This film was made in 1993. Could it be that the score of the same film at that time was automatically +2? Is it more ruthless than the automatic +1 from the current review? Regardless of the plot, lines, and acting skills, I was embarrassed for at least 90 minutes in 108 minutes. However, some things have been passed down smoothly to this day: gays are handsome and rich, and have a successful career; the relationship between gays must be firm and romantic; women are either nympho broilers or even rent. I can't pay the loser who can only get a green card through fake marriage, but if the handsome male lead is OK, the female can devote his life at any time... In the last few minutes, everyone showed the oldest and most traditional virtue of human beings [everything for children], so the world And harmonious and full of love. The plight of elders, the plight of same-sex couples, the plight of loser fake married women, an unexpected child makes everyone's wishes come true, they are happy, they have reached the pinnacle of life and ushered in the great harmony of life.
