    life movies

    "Saving Face" is my favorite movie at the moment. I think it has the life I want now. The movie is simple, quick to answer, and won't waste any time. Watch me watch it for the second time. I rarely watch a movie for the second time, but the protagonist Wil in it is really unforgettable, so I...

    give it up fu*k them

    Watching the full movie on and off on the subway and at home, the tone is lively, the plot is tight, and it captures the mood of the Chinese—especially the younger generation. How important is face? Is it more important than happiness? So I thought, even if I was exhausted, I should write a short...

    This is mother and daughter

    Maybe she's an absurd mother, but with all the hostility she sees at Vivian for the first time, it's certain that this is a real mother. Parents have an innate sensitivity to their children, and if you think you have a talent for acting that can fool your parents, you'd be wrong - as long as they...

    love. let go

    For moviegoers, "gay movie" is a sensitive genre label. Thinking about it carefully, in addition to curiosity and appreciation of good movies, the reason for preferring gay movies may be to appreciate the courage to hold hands bravely under the pressure of life? Compared with the feelings and...

    Shameless, just be free and easy

    When I first saw the beginning, I thought that the film was only about Chinese mothers dating their children on a blind date.   Seeing the end, I feel that the story of the whole film and the ending are really ideal, happy and absurd.   My mother was always worried about her gay daughter who didn't...

    Struggling, even once, please for yourself

    I just watched saving face again, and the most moving thing is "mom, I love you and I'm gay." Wil said it with tears in his eyes, and my heart lit up. Vivian's blatantly seducing Wil in the hospital is really tense now. All the acting skills dissolve into Wil's sluggish, embarrassed look, which...

    Trimming Chinatown with lace

    I'm not a love fundamentalist, so all love is good, regardless of age, race and of course gender.        From the perspective of the heroine Wil, three forms of love are reproduced in the film. The first is the love of grandpa, which is the most traditional Chinese style of love. Old husband and...

    If it's all laughter, what's the face of it?

    Sit on the sofa, stretch, smile, stand up, and jump. Take a breath, we can always find joy and resonance in this world occasionally. When I live, I always make myself suffocated. For so many, when I am hurt, when I am sad, I only think about myself. In fact, the so-called face, once again, is a way...

    Saving Face mask that grows on the face

    Alice Wu is not a very popular director in China. On the one hand, it is because of the theme of her film: love between the same sex. On the other hand, she was a BS and MS in computer science from Stanford University, started out as a software engineer, loved writing, and then started studying...

    The embarrassment of face, the edge of culture

    "Saving Face" is an ethical film about three generations of family conflicts. It uses humorous and relaxed plots to combine conflicts and comics delicately, showing the audience a market scene in the American Chinese circle. Here, the characteristics of Chinese culture are magnified and highlighted...
