Both are about relationships, family dynamics, and Asian American immigrant experiences. Acting is top notch for both, as is the crew and director. Highly recommend.

neutral · AI labelView post →#NowWatching THE WEDDING BANQUET (1993). Director: Ang Lee. Winston Chao, May Chin. Before ICE STORM, BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN, & LIFE OF PI, Lee gave us one of my faves. Billed as zany gay comedy, it really works as truthful character piece about familial expectations. #filmsky 📽
positive · AI labelView post →The Wedding Banquet (1993) might be the first gay movie I ever saw (at college in Michigan in the late 1990s). Two men in love kissing on screen was a revelation. Favorite movie of the week and one of my favorites this year: Northern Skies Over Empty Space. 🐂🌵 #LastFourWatched #LetterboxdFriday

Unusually, the film reads differently depending on whether you've seen the 1993 version. If you haven't, it stands alone well as a fun queer comedy. #TheWeddingBanquet 1/2
