Writer-director thumbelulu talks about the intersection of mourning and satire in thefarewell
and talked about her grandmother’s stage 4 lung cancer diagnosis, a death sentence her family decided to hide from the matriarch. This month, Wang’s screen adaptation of that story and that experience,, opens in theaters following its rapturous Sundance reception. It follows Billi as she returns to China to say goodbye to her grandmother Nai Nai , who happens to be the only person who has no idea she’s got very limited time left, thinking everyone is visiting for a wedding.
One example I was talking about earlier too is like, let’s say this was a very dramatic scene, and you were giving me some really terrible news, or I was giving you really terrible news, and you were crying and it was the end of the world, or at least that’s what it felt like. You wouldn’t necessarily know that right on the wall behind you are these ridiculous animals. [] You might be crying, and I’m watching you cry, and then my eye drops over there and I’m like, “This is so ridiculous.
It’s funny that you say that the experience is scary because, and this is going back to permission and expectations, some of the references I used for the film were actually thrillers and horror film, like. What are the conventions that are used in horror films and thrillers that I could steal? The reason I did that is because horror films do a really great job of creating fear in the room, right? Really putting the audience in the perspective of the protagonists.
