Although the movie is slow, but the scenes that the two accidental sisters were not strange. Really like the scene that her father really loved her indeed, and even cried when she said she misses him. We should all value others when they are around.

(1) For the first time I experienced that, all of the audienced didn't even stand up until the end of the film fully played. It seems that all of the audiences are hongkonger except me. (2) The audience sitting in front of me cried, they seems to be a family of three. (3) I wish all compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait and in four places a happy Mid-Autumn Festival.

Not too bad movie, China 🇨🇳 + Taiwan 🇹🇼 + hk A lot of famous supporting actors Storyline of united family after her dad passed away Good acting by hk actors 👍

The bright colours, the dragon dance, the funeral rites, the cooking scenes, the beautiful women, the melancholic, minimalistic scenes. It's generally very understated and subtle in terms of message and emotion, and I suppose that is also a reflection of its characters' inner lives and personalities. Things left unsaid, either from unwillingness or inability are a main theme of the movie. That's why the familial and romantic relationships suffer. It could also be a cultural thing, together with very loud displays of disapproval and even rejection as a twisted manifestation of love and care on the part of the older female generation. Of course towards the end there are some heart to heart scenes to heal wounds and build bridges and forgive and they may feel a bit out of character, but they are decent and somewhat natural compared to other movies that obviously force these things.

I loved the sisters and the fact that they are so different from each other in both personality and physique and that they have amazing and effortless chemistry and dad should have brought them together sooner. I was really judgy of him in the beginning but it turns out he wasn't just a horndog going from woman to woman. However, he did hurt them by not allowing them to be a real family together, especially since they felt so left out and estranged from their own mothers.

And really these actresses are phenomenal. And the movie deserves a lot more recognition. I guess it could be considered a feelgood movie, but also a very deep, heartwarming family drama. It takes a while to get to the feelgood part, but it does so gloriously.

This is more or less a standard story on how a woman come to term with his father, who has form families with two other women. This let me think of Little big women, depicting the the meeting of the original and second wife upon the funeral of the husband. The latter is more attractive me. It may be because o the Taiwan custom which is newer to me,or for some other reasons that is unexplainable. Or I simply like female director.

The present movie is slow and dull. It always show scenes that how the father love his restaurant workers, how he helps Sammy Cheng with the school dictation, how he follow the match of his Taiwan daughter. All are praising his dad. I just cannot figure out how Sammy could forgive his father with this little trivial things. His dad is really a Xxxx that cannot be forgiven.
