"The Wedding Banquet", "Pushing Hands", "Diet Men and Women".
This kind of movie hurts but doesn't bleed. Don't make people laugh, don't make people cry. and also. Don't forget.
"The Wedding Banquet", in terms of lens language, is still slightly rough. But the storyline is excellent. No wonder some commented that in this film, Ang Lee's skill as a screenwriter outperformed the director.
A "fake marriage" makes the plot full of tension. Spread in the way of a suspense film, it crosses the two narrative threads of "intergenerational value entanglement" and "triangle love entanglement". All the audience waited in a warm halo for the moment when the balloon blew up.
However. The balloon did not burst. It just slowly leaked. But it's still a full balloon.
Ang Lee breaks through the suspense film. He's not a West End Coco. He is Li An. He will give a Chinese answer. Chinese happy ending.
Chinese-style consummation—another wound without blood. The perfection on the outside, and the shortcomings in their own hearts.
Most of the people who grew up in Chinese culture would feel a lot of sighs when they watch Ang Lee.
