From the perspective of Hollywood, it interprets Chinese culture in a special era. For Western films, this film also presents many bright spots to the audience. It shows Chinese women's hard-working, kind, tenacious and beautiful characters well.

Louise Reiner's interpretation is also quite good. The subtle Chinese women's images are in place. The scenery, costumes, shapes, and customs of the picture are all very appropriate, bringing traditional Chinese jasmine flowers, flower drum operas, and folk songs into the picture. In the film, it seems that the director also has a deep love for China.
