Strong Chinese Complex

Not feeling the compassion for the suffering women, more like a legend about the racial other. The mothers of the mothers died or were absent, and the mothers brought the old society/Oriental sufferings to open their hearts and let their daughters (also mothers) learn from the experience of others. It is assumed that the other must be covered with blood, tears and scars, and the suppressed, come to the United States with hope. Although saying this will fundamentally challenge the foundation of the story (question whether it must have come to the United States because of suffering), I still feel that the scars of the movie are too clumsy to expose. Perhaps it is because of the sharp contrast that the drama can be produced, but there will be a better way to deal with it. In addition, the repetition of the structure is clumsy and not sophisticated enough. The four stories seem to be polyphonic and seem boring.

The novel is good. I'm also very impressed with the TV version - the suffering and hardship of women who are shaky but still passed on under another culture shock. The entire film version has a translation accent, some lines are blunt and comical, plus the accents of individual actors, obviously reading Chinese stories, but there is a strong "alienation". I think the story could be a bit more refined, and the use of voiceovers is still too much. When looking at Yu Feihong, she was not as bright as she was when she was 40 years old.
