Watching the wedding feast

"I didn't get married to explain what you got married." "I thought Chinese people were all submissive, silent and math geniuses. You are seeing the result of five thousand years of sexual repression." "Gao Weitong came over. ... Gao Weitong, I'm sorry, this isn't a happy event in Chen's house. It's upstairs in the phoenix hall in Chen's house." "Dude, you really know what room number to choose. It's not good to pick 1069, Ronaldinho, aren't you drunk? Drunk me. Even if you drink to death, you can’t let go of making trouble for your bridal chamber. Yes, the reason for getting married is to give her a green card and also to deal with you." After watching a lot of feelings, this is probably the characteristic of an excellent movie. When it comes to the wedding banquet, it is natural to be inseparable from the topic of homosexuality. I consider myself a straight man who supports LGBT?️‍?, but there is still a hint of disgust for gays (the classic Yue Buqun hypocrite). I don't know if it was Director Ang Lee's story that was too good, or because he had too strong a face and dog attribute, and there was no feeling of disgust at the wedding banquet at all (similar to my brother Leslie Cheung's Farewell My Concubine). There is no need to think about my body three times, but I should really reflect on it. The girls who used to complain about chasing and chasing changes before, felt okay after watching the wedding banquet. After all, who doesn't like to see handsome men and beautiful women?

It excerpted a few classic lines from the wedding banquet, which were too witty and deserved the label of "comedy". The whole film is quite smooth for more than 100 minutes, and you won't want to miss a minute and a second. Going back to the excerpted lines, I will not explain their uniqueness one by one, but take "This is not a happy event in Chen's house" as an example. This detailed description directly shows the relationship between Dad Gao and Lao Chen. In order to let the teacher have a face, Lao Chen can be said to be heartbroken. There are too many plots like this in the whole film, so I won't repeat them one by one.

What I also want to talk about is the problem of bridal chambers, which is undoubtedly a bad habit. Many people like to talk about things with knives handed over. The old saying goes, "Family ugliness can't be made public", but is it really better not to show it? Ang Lee tells the bad habits of Chinese culture through movies, which I personally think is not necessarily a bad thing. On the contrary, it may act as a wake-up call for our new generation of Chinese sons and daughters, help us take the essence and get rid of the dross, absorb the negative ones positively, such as making a bridal chamber, which can go into the torrent of history.

In the end, the happy ending won my heart, thank you Ang Lee.

    The story is rounded up, Jin Sumei's lines are too blunt, and the two lines that want to knock the child out are not well written.

    Li Ang's soy sauce line was too overbearing, and the window paper that everyone hadn't pierced was just like this. . . Maybe it’s because the screenwriter is a foreigner, and the lines are a bit spiritual, but everything is perfect. I like Gui Yalei’s performance, Zhao Wenxuan is really a big fan of hahaha. Dad is the ultimate boss, don’t underestimate Dad! Knowing a foreign language is king~~~ A touching movie
