90 Queer Movies to See Before You Die... (100 movies items)"The Wedding Banquet is what you get when you essentially take the plot to The Birdcage and film it using the characters from Tokyo Story. Except the humor in this one, whether intentional or not, is slightly uncomfortable, because the drama seems much more authentic to life. The Wedding Banquet was one of the more original films I've ever sat through, it's charming, compassionate, and at times, can be downright cheeky. It's such a shame it's one of Ang Lee's more earlier efforts, that so unfair"

A Complete Review of Ang Lee's work (15 movies items)" Cast : Sihung Lung What was it about? To satisfy his nagging parents, a gay landlord and a female tenant agree to a marriage of convenience, but his parents arrive to visit and things get out of hand. My two cents: I remember very well when it came out though. Indeed, my sister was really enthusiast about this movie and she was the on who actually made me discover Ang Lee. Basically, way before ‘Brokeback Mountain’, Ang Lee directed this gem about gay love. Back then, obviously, nobody"

However, I remember it very well when it came out, my sister was really enthusiast about the damned thing and told me I should definitely check it out. Indeed, way before ‘Brokeback Mountain’, Ang Lee directed this gem about gay love.

Watched in 2016 (247 movies items)"17.3. Ang Leen trilogian toisessa osassa homomiehen vanhemmat ilmoittavat tulevansa käymään ja ainoa ratkaisu on pistää pystyyn heteroshow. Meininki on tavallaan kuin kirjekaverijuonileffoista parhaimmillaan, mutta leffan umpisurkea huumori pilaa muuten kelvollisen tahattoman vammaisuuden. Lopussa opitaan, että homotkin voivat olla ihan ok kunhan kännipäissään kuksivat myös naisia, jotta yrmyfaija saa lapsenlapsen."
