The Wedding Banquet 囍宴 (10)




Finally I have sen it :D:D a movie I wanted to see since I was still in college. It is just amazing!! Very impressive~~~ haha.... I think, Brokeback Mountian is much easier to handle for Ann Lee um... The Wedding Banquet involved much deeper expression from different point of views. Chinese who wanna stay in the State, Chinese who grow in the west, conservative Chinese parents, father, mother, homosexual, straight, traditional Chinese family, eastern and western culture. The sensibilities are highly complicated. But the director just handle it so well. Although the whole story is happened at the State, but there are tones of Taiwanese identities in the movie. I think I would feel very warm if I had watched in London. :D haha... I will send one copy to Maivs... hope that she will love it :D

The only thing in the movie I am not sure is about "Simon". Maybe that is not the focus of the director or what, I kinda feel that the charactor is quite weak. Somehow I think a normal white young guy wouldn't be so passive in such a situation. yup... and... Wei-wei doesn't act like Mainland Chinese :P... haha... and maybe this is a different generation.. The guy who act as the handsome guy (Wai-ton) is not that handsome lo~~ lol
