proved last summer that there could be a huge international audience for a romantic comedy with an all-Asian cast. Now, with one of that film’s supporting cast members in the lead, writer-director Lulu Wang proves there are rich and universal emotional truths along with knowing laughs to be had from another movie with a brilliantly cast story of a Chinese family caught up in a big lie. A hugeis modest in scope but indeed very rich in the human experience.
The cast is uniformly superb, with Awkwafina playing it straight and showing a side of her acting talent we haven’t seen. As Nai Nai, Chinese actress Shuzhen Zhou nails every scene and runs away with the movie — not an easy task with an ensemble like this. Largely known as a TV star in China, this role will give her recognition and likely awards consideration far beyond the borders of her homeland.but both Wang and the producers saw great potential as a film, and they were right.
Producers are Anita Gou, Daniele Tate Melia, Andrew Miano, Peter Saraf, Marc Turtletaub, Chris Weitz and Jane Zheng. A24 puts it in limited release Friday. Check out my video review at the link above which also includes scenes from the film.and keep your inbox happy.
