After reading it, I feel that Director Ang Lee wants to explore different concepts of love and family? The part about love: The eldest sister is a self-suppressing love personality, and it is serious enough to "get" Li Kai, who is secretly in love with her, by fabricating lies. Perhaps the sustenance of this kind of fantasy is also quite pleasant, but it also caused her troubles. The loud questioning of the love letter is also a step for the eldest sister to get out of the virtual and real. Although the second sister has friends and is fashionable and avant-garde, she is actually the most traditional and sensitive of the three daughters. She is disgusted by the "friend" invitation that Raymond continues to marry, and she is disgusted by Li Kai, who she likes, because of the lie of the elder sister. After tangled and repeated, she still expected a simple feeling, but the Western-style education she received caused part of her behavior and heart to be separated. The third sister has relatively few scenes, probably dare to love and hate? It doesn't count, I don't have much insight, but Sanmei's colleagues may represent some hypocritical people in love, both men and women. The part about family: Throughout the film, the concept of family really exists in the concept of father and second sister, and formally exists in the concept of eldest sister and third sister.
The second sister initially proposed to leave the house, but because her father felt relieved about the failure to buy a house, she rejected the job in Amsterdam. The father is also anxious about his relationship because of family reasons, so that he temporarily loses his sense of taste. On the contrary, the eldest sister and the third sister do not have too many worries about leaving home, and the reason for their troubles has nothing to do with the family.
But did Director Ang Lee convey the regret that the family will eventually be separated? I don't think it is, it's more like a relief that the family will eventually get together and leave, so it's better to look away. The love between the eldest sister and the third sister was reckless, but in the end, they each had their own new lives, and the concept of family did not bring much burden to them. Instead, it was the father and the second sister. Love, taste disorder, because the family missed the person and job opportunity (fortunately, it was lost and found), the overweight family concept may sometimes not be a harbor, but a shackle. I saw a sentence in the comments that I think is particularly good: the unattended courtyard is overgrown with weeds, seemingly barren, but in fact it is lush. In the past, I saw someone quoting Ang Lee's diet, men and women, to express the desolation of their children leaving home, which is to deceive people who haven't seen the original film. The separation of a family is like an overgrown courtyard, seemingly barren in form, but in fact each child (even the father) has his own new, possibly more sustainable long-term sustenance.
Ps: I agree with Lamb, Director Ang Lee is really humorous, the transition of applause is really funny (A few funny screenshots are attached)
