I am living and teaching in Taiwan and I saw this movie. It was beautiful, I’m used to Chinese daddies shyly asking me if their little girls are good in my English class, so this movie definitely made me get real on my assessment of the people here as I’ve slipped into the standard generalizations and stereotypes over the past couple of years when the language/culture barrier just gets too daunting. Also, I believe Taiwanese society is generally more conservative than American society, so being able to watch it in a pretty well-crowded theater at the local cinema when it’s gotten an NC-17 rating back home makes me think about the difference between being conservative and being an ignorant puritan.

It’s already showing up here (Toronto) … and played at the Film Fest … which reminds me, I should go see it before it exits the theatres.

Jesse, if SF shows it you have to let me know. I want to see this film. I hope it has subtitles.
