The original title of this film is "The Farewell" translated, is it farewell? I think the original name is better. . Should the name be changed according to the plot?
This film is said to be very good at the box office and reputation in North America, but its ranking in my dynasty is very general. . And there is some controversy about the actress who won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress because of this film.
I think she acted very well, but this story is too childish in the eyes of Chinese people. .
I really like this story. . The collision of Chinese and American cultures is hard to say, and it is impossible to say who is right and who is wrong.
I happen to have a friend next to me doing the same thing, and I wrote about my ex-insurance broker who had CA on her father without telling her the truth. . She hid it very hard. , Unlike in the story, the whole family knows it, and it is hidden from the old lady.
It was her, her husband, and her brother who knew about it, hiding it from her parents and all her relatives.
I can't hide it anymore, and I can't give her any good advice.
So, looking at this story, I can understand, but that doesn't mean I'm not confused.
This story is not a story about the collision of Chinese and American cultures like Director Ang Lee's. The director is said to be making his own story, and this is also the most Chinese story ever made. Basically it's a documentary. Except for a few American scenes, most of them are Chinese scenes, which were all shot in Changchun. . Unlike some foreigners' perspectives, this director does not have a deliberate intention of my country's culture, it is very realistic.
So, I love this story. . And I am very happy that the real grandma in the play is still alive and healthy at the end of the movie, which makes people very happy.
This is a story with a light style, no ups and downs, but it can make you feel very moved.
