One of Ang Lee's earliest works, this comedy/drama is an excellent mix of unconventional characters, delicate family dynamics, cross cultural exchanges and a decidedly mixed ending. Ang Lee knows how to extract humour from settings that are not over the top and write compassionate yet flawed characters that don't feel artificial.

The title of the review? An exchange between two characters that don't understand the contradictions in the other person, but still accept them for who they are. I thought it summed up the spirit of the movie perfectly for me.

9/10
