First of all, I haven't read the original, but checked the description of the original: "By describing the generation gap and the conflict between the four pairs of mother and daughter, the author reflects the collision and compatibility of the encounter between the Chinese mother culture and the heterogeneous culture, as well as the two The difficult search for self-cultural identity in the collision of cultures." Then it seems that the film is bound to express another theme. Summarize the stories of 9 women in 4 main lines: The mother a, the child bride, has a three-point wit and is very strong, and the girl a stops at the half-assed level in piano and Go under the obscenity. The second married foreign husband reluctantly got the permission of his mother, mainly because he recognized and confirmed the dominant and leading position of the Queen Mother of the West in the barber shop, which made Longyan happy. Mother B, Yu Feihong fell in love with Brother Pogua and drowned his son, daughter B, married a stingy husband who was made by a boss. This mother-daughter storyline is outrageous, and the thunder rolls out of reality. The grandmother Wu Junmei killed herself in exchange for the survival status of the mother, and the daughter walked on thin ice to please the cheating wealthy husband, and finally ushered in the return of the prodigal son in the rain. tmd Ha ha ha, money can make a ghost run the mill. The mother d left the two baby girls under the escape tree. Afterwards, her personality was extremely twisted and twisted. During the dinner, she turned her elbow out and betrayed her daughter. When she turned around, she said, "I know your kindness best." lump sugar. The hidden goose feathers do not know what kind of family philosophy and spiritual wealth they want to inherit, and they have a magical brain circuit. Until the end of the film, I can understand that what the director wants to express is that although there are conflicts all the time and the fetters are inextricably linked, the mother and daughter will eventually be connected and the blood will be connected. The daughter, as the continuation of the mother's life, will eventually achieve the great harmony of life. . However, as a man, all I saw was a terminally ill female consciousness.

In 2017, what is the relationship between men and women in reality? The pursuit of giving flowers and gifts, going bankrupt and marrying a wife, working hard, being a cow and a horse, kneeling on the washboard, handing in the salary card...

The transformation that formed the pattern of female superiors and male inferiors began 37 years ago before the national policy of family planning, and before social industrialization developed to the point of overcapacity. If you have seen the pulsation of the earth by bbc, you can basically agree that the inheritance of blood is the ultimate meaning of nature. From the ancient matriarchal society to the 1980s, the womb determined the rise and fall of a race. Until the last few decades, many countries have experienced inverse population growth, and the rules of survival for tens of thousands of years have undergone new changes.

Therefore, people of our age, seeing this kind of American writer's writing, put women only as a symbol of fertility, and they are in a very passive position. All personal emotional venting comes from the pressure brought by their rich and powerful partners. The confusion about the marriage relationship and the impersonal image made me feel great discomfort.

All in all, in this film about family, I did not see delicate and moving feelings, nor did I see the structure and reconstruction of modern family relationships, only the same as the hanging of red lanterns, praising the old order. , to submit to the greatness of silent resistance.

So I guess that the original writer, as a Chinese American, may have prejudice and malice towards China. Child brides and bloodletting to save mothers are all symbolic, and the repressed marriage relationship is also symbolic in imagination.

She just subconsciously felt that you oriental women need to be liberated too much.
