Even though the mother's love in the play is pitiful, it is still unhealthy. The writers have neither explained nor expressed the right attitude to this morbid love, let alone come up with a solution.
The mother treats her son as her own creation and develops a pathological attachment. The screenwriter just made an analogy to what he has seen and heard, cultural background, Chinese family values, and inheritance ideas are not considered at all.
The attitude of the screenwriter is extremely divided. If there is no plot of swallowing buns, it is full of praise. If it ends with swallowing buns, it is full of irony. At least the attitude is clear, but what does it mean to return to harmony in the end? Empathy and sympathy for deformed maternal love after intense exaggeration and mockery? Mother's love is so profound that it is deformed. This is the reason why Chinese families are close together. Such families are very harmonious. We should like it? At the same time, the way of expression is also uncomfortable. Black humor is added to a story about maternal love, so there is a nondescript combination that is almost joking and then tearful and sweet.
In short, the screenwriter's understanding of the Chinese-style mother-child relationship is extremely shallow, and the criticism of unhealthy maternal love is insufficient. The position and expression are contradictory and awkward. They both ridicule in an extreme way and express their understanding and sympathy with warmth.
Not to mention squinting discrimination. In addition, this is an inappropriate presentation of a controversial node in Chinese culture. A mosquito does not dislike showing the less glamorous parts of the anatomy culture, and dislikes expressing self-righteous sympathy before understanding the phenomenon.
