喜福会 The Joy luck club 剧情和影评(英文)

Plot(情节回顾)在电影开头有一段剧情,就是钢琴回忆那一段,我们在这里简要提一下:在小时候微莉总是下棋冠军而June却在钢琴竞赛中失利。

June以为从此他就不用弹琴了,谁知道。

然后她被迫去弹琴,June提到她希望是那个死去的双胞胎。

这样就好了但是母亲说:It’s too late to change母亲甲(林多阿姨LinDo)1、她五岁那年,在母亲、媒婆和大户人家的共同协商下,订给了这大户人家作媳妇。

她仍跟母亲住在一起,但从此母亲用着「你是别人家的人」来对待她.诸如提醒她:「别吃那么快,人家会不要你!」......处处不忘提醒着,她已不再是母亲家的人。

母亲说,不是不再爱她,只是不敢对已经不属于自己的人有任何奢望。

她越是长成亭亭玉立,母女俩越是经常泪眼婆娑、对看无语。

2、终于,到了她得要离去的日子。

送往婆家的前一天,母亲跟她说:「你耳朵比我大,将来一定比我有福气。

以后不管发生什么事,绝对不要忘了你自己是谁。

」次日清晨,婆家派人来接她。

父母全家行李都打包好了,只等把她送走,便立刻启程南下找生路去。

母亲说:「你已经够幸运的了。

」的意思是:的确,这种穷人家的女儿,多少是根本养不大、或者早就卖掉不知死活了呢!她好歹是跟着母亲,又正正当当被送进婆家的——虽然根本不知道自己到底是嫁给了谁!3、结婚那天,她披着红头纱等丈夫进来。

等待自己的命运的那一刻,她决定一辈子记住母亲跟她说的话:「永远不要忘记自己是谁!」她嫁给了比自己小很多的小男生,结婚当夜就拿蜥蜴吓她,他又正值讨厌女生的年龄,因此不准她睡床上。

但她后来因此糟了殃。

她在婆家的身份地位,是用肚皮里生不生的出儿子来决定的。

她无法让小男生对她有任何欲念,她当然不可能受孕,她因此被婆婆三天两头的打骂。

4、最后,她用了精明的伎俩,让自己脱身。

她无意间听到女仆跟拉车夫的对谈,知道这可怜的女仆从拉车夫受了孕,车夫却抵赖不认。

她便利用婆婆迷信祖宗的弱点,告诉婆婆整桩婚姻都是错的,是媒婆贪钱的结果,祖宗中意的媳妇是那女仆,而且还让她受了传宗接代的种。

It focuses on four Chinese American immigrant families in San Francisco, California who start a club known as "the Joy Luck Club," playing the Chinese game of mahjong for money while feasting on a variety of foods. The book is structured somewhat like a mahjong game, with four parts divided into four sections to create sixteen chapters. The three mothers and four daughters (one mother, Suyuan Woo, dies before the novel opens) share stories about their lives in the form of vignettes. Each part is preceded by a parable relating to the game.In 1993, the novel was adapted into a feature film directed by Wayne Wang and starring Ming-Na, Lauren Tom, Tamlyn Tomita, France Nguyen, Rosalind Chao, Kieu Chinh, Tsai Chin, Lisa Lu, and Vivian Wu. The screenplay was written by the author Amy Tan along with Ronald Bass. The novel was also adapted into a play, by Susan Kim, which premiered at Pan Asian Repertory Theatre in New York. CharactersMothersSuyuan WooDuring the Second World War, Suyuan lives in China while her husband at the time served as an officer in Chungking (Chongqing). She starts the original Joy Luck Club with her three friends to cope with the war. There is little to eat, but they pretend it is a feast, and talk about their hopes for the future. On the day of the Japanese invasion, Suyuan leaves her house with nothing but a bag of clothes, a bag of food, and her twin baby daughters.During the long journey, Suyuan contracts such severe dysentery that she feels certain she will die. Fearing that a dead mother would doom her babies' chances of rescue, she reluctantly and emotionally leaves her daughters under a barren tree, together with all her belongings, along with a note asking anyone who might find the babies to care for them and contact the father. Suyuan then departs, expecting to die. However, she is rescued by a truck and finds out her husband has died. She later remarries, comes to America, forms a new Joy Luck Club with three other Chinese female immigrants she met at church, and gives birth to another daughter. But her abandonment of the twin girls haunts her for the rest of her life. After many years, Suyuan learns that the twins were adopted, but dies of a brain aneurysm before she can meet them. It is her American-born daughter Jing-mei who fulfills her long-cherished wish of reuniting with her elder twin half-sisters.As Suyuan dies before the novel begins, her history is told by Jing-mei, based on her knowledge of her mother's stories, anecdotes from her father, and what the other members of the Joy Luck Club tell her.An-Mei HsuAn-Mei is raised by her grandparents and other relatives during her early years in Ningbo after her widowed mother shocks the family by becoming a concubine to a middle-aged wealthy man after her first husband's death. This becomes a source of conflict for the young An-Mei, as her aunts and uncles deeply resent her mother for such a dishonorable act. They try to convince An-Mei that it is not fitting for her to live with her disgraced mother, who is now forbidden to enter the family home. An-Mei's mother, however, still wishes to be part of her daughter's life. After An-Mei's grandmother dies, An-mei moves out to live with her mother in the home of her mother's new husband, Wu-Tsing. An-Mei learns that her mother was coerced into being Wu-Tsing's concubine through the manipulations of his Second Wife, the favorite. This woman arranged for An-Mei's mother, still in mourning for her original husband, to be raped by Wu-Tsing. The stigma left An-Mei's mother with no choice but to marry Wu-Tsing and become his new but lowly Fourth Wife. She later lost her babyson to Second Wife, who claimed the boy as her own child to ensure her place in the household. Second Wife also tried to win over An-mei upon her arrival in Wu-Tsing's mansion, giving her a necklace made of "pearls" that her mother later revealed were actually glass beads by crushing one with her teacup. An-Mei's mother re-knots the necklace to hide the missing bead, but now An-Mei knows the truth about Second Wife's seeming generosity.Wu-Tsing is a highly superstitious man, and Second Wife takes advantage of this weakness by making false suicide attempts and threatening to haunt him as a ghost if he does not let her have her way. According to Chinese tradition, a person's soul comes back after three days to settle scores with the living. Wu-Tsing, therefore, is known to be afraid to face the ghost of an angry or scorned wife. After Second Wife fakes a suicide attempt to prevent An-Mei and her mother from getting their own small house, An-Mei's mother successfully commits suicide herself, eating tangyuan laced with lethal amounts of opium. She times her death so that her soul is due to return on the first day of the new year, a day when all debts must be settled lest the debtor suffer great misfortune. With this in mind, Wu-Tsing promises to treat his Fourth Wife's children, including An-Mei, as if they were his very own flesh and blood by an honored First Wife. When Second Wife attempts to disrupt this, An-Mei crushes the fake pearl necklace Second Wife gave her beneath her feet to show her awareness of all Second Wife's deception and to symbolize her new power over Second Wife, who now fears her and realizes the bad karma she has brought upon herself.An-Mei later immigrates to America, marries, and gives birth to seven children (four sons, three daughters). The youngest, a son named Bing, drowns at age four.Lindo JongLindo is a strong-willed woman, a trait that her daughter Waverly attributes to her having been born in the year of the Horse. When Lindo was only twelve, she was forced to move in with a neighbor's young son, Huang Tyan-yu, through the machinations of the village matchmaker. After some training for household duties through her in-laws, she and Tyan-yu married when she turned sixteen. She soon realized that her husband was just a little boy at heart and had no sexual interest in her. Lindo began to care for her husband as a brother, but her cruel mother-in-law expected Lindo to produce a grandson. She restricted most of Lindo's daily activities, eventually ordering her to remain on bed rest until she could conceive and deliver a child.Determined to escape this unfortunate situation, Lindo carefully observed the other people in the household and eventually formed a clever plan to escape her marriage without dishonoring herself or her family. She managed to trick her young husband's family into believing that he was actually fated to marry another girl who was already pregnant with his "spiritual child", and that her marriage to Huang Tyan Yu would only bring bad luck to the family. In reality, the girl in question was a mere servant in the household and indeed pregnant, but abandoned by her lover.Freed from her first marriage, Lindo decided to emigrate to America. She married a Chinese-American man named Tin Jong and has three children: sons Winston and Vincent, and daughter Waverly.Lindo experiences regret over losing some of her Chinese identity by living so long in America (she is treated like a tourist on a visit to China); however, she expresses concern that Waverly's American upbringing has formed a barrier between them.Ying-Ying "Betty" St. ClairFrom a young age, Ying-Ying is told by her wealthy and conservative family that Chinese girls should be meek and gentle. This is especially difficult for her, she feels, because she is a Tiger character. She begins to develop a passive personality and repress her feelings as she grows up in Wuxi. Ying-Ying marries a charismatic man named Lin Xiao, not out of love, but because she believed it was her fate. Her husband is revealed to be abusive and openly has extramarital relationships with other women.When Ying-Ying discovers she is pregnant, she gets an abortion and makes the decision to live with her relatives in a smaller city in China.After ten years, she moves to Shanghai and works in a clothing store, where she meets an American man named Clifford St. Clair. He falls in love with her, but Ying-Ying cannot express any strong emotion after her first marriage. He courts her for four years before she agrees to marry him after learning that Lin Xiao had died, which she takes as the proper sign to move on. She allows Clifford to control most aspects of her life, mistranslating her words and actions, and even changing her name to "Betty". Ying-Ying gives birth to her daughter, Lena, after moving to San Francisco with St. Clair. When Lena is around ten years old, Ying-Ying becomes pregnant a third time, but the baby boy is anencephalic and soon dies.Ying-Ying is horrified when she realizes that Lena, a Tiger like herself, has inherited or emulated her passive behaviors and trapped herself in a loveless marriage with a controlling husband. She finally resolves to call upon the more assertive qualities of her Tiger nature, to appeal to those qualities in Lena. She will tell Lena her story in the hope that she will be able to break free from the same passivity that ruined most of her young life back in China.DaughtersJing-Mei "June" WooJing-Mei has never fully understood her mother and seems directionless in life. During June's childhood, her mother used to tell her that she could be anything she wants; however, she particularly wanted her daughter to be gifted, a child star who amazes the world, like Ginny Tiu (seen briefly on television) or June's rival Waverly. At the beginning of the novel, June is chosen to replace her mother's seat in the Joy Luck Club after her mother's death. At the end of the novel, June is still trying to deal with her mother's death, and she visits China to see the twin half-sisters (Wang Chwun Yu and Wang Chwung Hwa) whom her mother had been forced to abandon when the Japanese attacked China.One critic[who] has suggested[1] that the reason for the communication gap between Jing-Mei and her mother, and between the other daughters and their mothers—a major theme of the novel—occurs because the mothers come from a high context culture and the Americanized daughters from a low context culture. The mothers believe that the daughters will intuitively understand their cryptic utterances, but the daughters don't understand them at all.Rose Hsu JordanRose is somewhat passive and is a bit of a perfectionist. She had an unsettling childhood experience when her youngest brother, Bing, drowned while she was supposed to be watching him, and his body was never recovered. Rose marries a doctor, Ted Jordan, who loves her but also wants to spite his snooty, racist mother. After a malpractice suit, Ted has a mid-life crisis and decides to leave Rose. Rose confides in her mother and An-mei tells her the story of her own childhood. When Ted comes for the divorce papers, Rose finds her voice and tells him that he can't just throw her out of his life, comparing herself to his garden, once so beloved, now unkempt and full of weeds. An-Mei tells her that Ted has been cheating on her, which Rose thinks is absurd, but she later discovers this to be true. She wants to hire a good lawyer and fight for possession of the house, which she eventually wins.Waverly JongWaverly is an independent-minded and intelligent woman, but is annoyed by her mother's constant criticism. Well into her adult life, she finds herself restrained by her subconscious fear of letting her mother down. During their childhood, June and Waverly become childhood rivals; their mothers constantly compared their daughter's development and accomplishments. Waverly was once agifted chess champion, but quit after feeling that her mother was using her daughter's talent to show off, taking credit for Waverly's wins. She has a daughter, Shoshana, from her first marriage with Marvin, and is currently engaged to her boyfriend Rich Shields.Lena St. ClairThroughout Lena's childhood, she gradually becomes her mother's voice and interprets her mother's Chinese words for others. Like her father Clifford, she translates Ying-ying's words to sound more pleasant than what Ying-ying actually says. Ying-ying has taught Lena to beware of consequences, to the extent that Lena visualizes disaster in the taking of any risk. Lena's husband, Harold, is also her boss. He takes the credit for Lena's business and design ideas. He demands financial "equality" in their marriage. Lena is an associate while Harold is a partner, so he has a larger salary than she does. However, he insists that all household expenses be divided equally between them. Harold believes that by making everything equal, they can make their love equal as well. Lena feels frustrated and powerless.Table of contentsFeathers from a Thousand Li Away"The Joy Luck Club," Jing-mei "June" Woo"Scar," An-Mei Hsu"The Red Candle," Lindo Jong"The Moon Lady," Ying-Ying St ClairThe Twenty-Six Malignant Gates"Rules of the Game," Waverly Jong"The Voice from the Wall," Lena St. Clair"Half and Half," Rose Hsu Jordan"Two Kinds," Jing-mei "June" WooAmerican Translation"Rice Husband," Lena St. Clair"Four Directions," Waverly Jong"Without Wood," Rose Hsu Jordan"Best Quality," Jing-mei "June" WooQueen Mother of the Western Skies"Magpies," An-mei Hsu"Waiting Between the Trees," Ying-Ying St. Clair"Double Face," Lindo Jong"A Pair of Tickets," Jing-mei "June" WooCriticismThough Amy Tan's book has been widely praised by critics, it has also been alleged by Chinese-American author Frank Chin that it perpetuates racist stereotypes.[2][3][4] Chinese-American director Wayne Wang was impressed with the story and created a film version of the novel.[5] References^ CUNY Brooklyn article^ Come All Ye Asian American Writers of the Real and the Fake^ The Joy Luck Club^ Review: The Joy Luck Club^ "Asian images in film spotlight - The Joy Luck Club".

Obviously, the conflicts are caused by mothers’ and daughters’ generation gaps and growing backgrounds. The mothers grew up in China where there are many traditions and rules to follow. However, the daughters grew up in San Francisco and live in an American way. In another way, it is also conflicts between the two cultures. In China, parents are the symbol of power. In America, however, everyone is equal and parents encourage sense of independence

喜福会影评

As far as I’m concerned,there are various themes in the movie,the theme about the relationship between mothers and daughters,the theme about cultural identity ,the theme about feminism an d so on,which make The Joy Luck Club more outstanding and significant .But now,I want to talk about the theme of silence.In the field of literary criticism,the study to the theme of silence in literary works becomes an increasing focus of feminist attention.And the movi e is also full of the theme of silence.Firstly,the silence of mothers before daughters.Mothers are b orn in China and grow up in China,deeply influenced by the Chinese traditional culture;while dau ghters are born in America and grow up in America,receiving tne native American education and culture.They advocate freedom and individualism and speak the native English.So without doubt. what mothers think and say are repelled by daughters.Finally,there are misunderstanding,conflict and many more things appearing between mothers and daughters,which leads to silence. Secondly,the silence of female in a patriarchal society.In such an unfair society,the men are at an absolute central position.What’s more,women are men’s private property,attached to men,domin ated by men,at the lowest position of society and family.Under the command of the old culture a nd thinking,mothers all become silent. Meanwhile,the movie also analyzes the theme of silence f rom the point of view of culture.Western culture is more open and independent,advocating indivi dualism.But traditional Chinese culture is introvert and conservative.When the two totally differe nt kinds of culture collide with each other,there will be a large number of quarrel,misunderstandi ng among people.In Joy Luck Club,there are conflicts between Chinese mothers and their daught ers’husbands,even between the daughters and their husbands.For American mainstream culture, Chinese culture has been put at an absolute silent position.Although there are various forms of silence in the movie,the mothers and daughters also try to br eak the silence.Mothers can finally approve their daughters’marriages and the daughters can fina lly gain their relative happy life.So personally speaking, The Joy Luck Club is a masterpiece which brings us sentiment and spiritual wealth.<<喜福会>>是一部关于女人的电影,是一部关于女人对幸福的追求的电影,是一部关于女人灵魂的自由的电影。

解析《喜福会》中母女关系的冲突折射出的中美文化差异

解析《喜福会》中母女关系的冲突折射出的中美文化差异

解析《喜福会》中母女关系的冲突折射出的中美文化差异《喜福会》是一部由英国裔美国导演AngLee执导的电影,讲述了一个华裔移民家庭的故事。

影片以母女之间的关系为切入点,探讨了家庭内部发生的矛盾,也展示了中美文化之间的差异。

本文将分析影片中母女关系的冲突,以及这些冲突反映出来的中美文化差异。

首先,我们从影片中看到了中美文化中母女关系的差异。

在中国文化中,母亲是家庭的核心,重视传统。

因此,影片中母亲对女儿的期望是,孩子的行为必须符合传统的家庭价值观,并绝不能取悖,否则家庭的威信就会受损。

相比之下,美国文化注重个人自由,以及尊重个人的选择。

因此,影片中母亲只是想让女儿自己尊重传统,而不是强加给她,而且美国母亲通常会尊重孩子的决定。

此外,影片还对母女关系中一种可能的模式进行了反思,即孩子表达出自己的想法和意见,而母亲会尊重孩子的想法,并帮助孩子去实现这些想法,双方也不会拒绝或无视对方的想法。

这种模式充分考虑到了母女双方的想法,而且也能够很好地使双方之间的关系更加和谐。

最后,通过对影片中母女关系的冲突进行分析,可以得出两个文化之间在母亲与女儿关系上存在的差异,即中国文化一般更强调母亲的权威,而美国文化则强调尊重个人自由,同时也让母女双方都参与到决定和沟通中来。

在中美文化中,这种可能的模式有助于改善母女关系,并在双方之间建立起和谐的关系。

综上所述,《喜福会》通过母女关系的冲突,表明了中美文化之
间的差异,即中国文化更强调传统,而美国文化则更加强调尊重个人自由,这也为改善母女关系提供了一种新的可能模式。

The Joy Luck Club 《喜福会》英文观后感

The Joy Luck Club 《喜福会》英文观后感

My Appreciation of the Joy Luck ClubThe first time I saw the title of the film, the Joy Luck Club, I thought that it would be a film filed with joy, luck and happiness. However, out of my expectation, in the film, I saw many unpleasant things—conflicts, hardship, disappointment, sorrow, hurt, torture etc. Of course there were some moving parts, and fortunately, it was a happy ending. Anyway, I enjoyed it very much. It made me have a penetrating thinking.The Joy Luck Club tells about the conflicts between Chinese immigrant mothers and their American-raised daughters and their struggling to understand each other.The film shows us these topics: the misunderstanding of love between the mothers and the daughters, the clash between the generations and cultures, and the struggle for the women to fight for equity. Now I am going to show you my understanding of them, emphasizing on the first topic.In many cases, we and those we love are easy to hurt each other because of the misunderstanding of love, the conflicts in generations and culture background, or unconsciousness.Take Jingmei and her mother Suyuan as an example. When Suyuan demands the little Jingmei to play piano, Jingmei shouts to her mother, “You can’t make me!” Even Jingmei cried that she wish she isn’t Suyuan’s daughter and Suyuan isn’t her mother, and that she wishes she were the dead like the babies Suyuan abandoned in China. The sad expression on Suyuan’s face indicates that she is hurt deeply by her daughter’s innocent words.This reminds me of my similar experience. Once I hurt my mother as Jingmei did. I did n’t mean to hurt her, but those wounding words just slip out of my mouth unconsciously. Often, we hate that why our parents don’t know my feelings, why they like to make us be something and totally unaware that what their children are. While the parents don’t know why all their sacrifices to the children can’t be paid off, even incite hatred. Actually, this is the generation gap that causes the misunderstanding. We don’t know the hardship our parents underwent before. They can’t understand what we are thinking. So misunderstandings appear.Maybe as a child, Jingmei cannot comprehend what her remarks mean to Suyuan, and just want to show her grudge. But another main reason is the different backgrounds of Suyuan and Jingmei bare. Chinese parents always like to put all their hopes on the next generation for they are the generation full with hardship and pain. All they do just want the children to be better, but they ignore that whether their children can accept or not, not along a child born in America, influenced by the American’s individual freedom and knowing little about Chinese culture. The generation gap and culture conflict cause the misunderstanding of the mother and the daughter.The other example is Waverly and her mother Lindo. Waverly tries her best to please Lindo in everything. Whether her mother approves or not becomes the master of all her choice. Even Waverly marries a Chinese man because Lindo likes Chinese, while she doesn’t love. Waverly doesn’t understand why Lindo disapprove or criticize whatever she has done. On the other side, Lindo thinks that her daughter is ashamed of her, which is her continual internal injury after Waverly’s winning that chess contest, when Waverly shouted to Lindo if Lindo wanted to show off, won the chest by herself. Every time, Lindo’s disagreement with or indifference to Waverly directly results from the thought that Waverly feels it shameful to be her daughter. Both of them deeply love each other, but in the meantime, they hostile and hurt one another. This is the way them get along with each other. Fortunately, they clear up their misunderstandings and discover themselves by communicating.I am deeply moved by this scene:Waverly Jong says to Lindo, sobbing,, “You don't know, you don't know the power you have over me. One word from you, one look, and I'm four years old again, crying myself to sleep, because nothing I do can ever, ever please you.”And after a short period of silence, Lindo smiles to Waverly with tears in her eyes, “Now, you make me happy.” Then they laugh heartily, teary-eyed with happiness.Seeing the old Lindo bursts out laughing, like a child, and Waverly laughs joyfully, I sincerely feel delighted for them. Love needs communicating, understanding, and tolerance, which is what I learn from them.Along with above mentioned, the struggle for the women to fight for equity is also brought to the surface. For instance, Ying-ying encourages her daughter Lena to escape an unhappy marriage, not repeating the same mistakes she made in her first marriage. And An-mei tells her daughter Rose to learn to shout at the unfair fate, and express her own will because Rose has lost herself in her marriage. These two cases reveal that the women begin to release themselves from the restrains of being oppressed by the men and the old-fashioned thoughts as well as some Chinese traditional characters. Eventually, the women find their true value and win their own happiness.View from the whole film, the title, the Joy Luck Club may just be the old generation’s hope of better life for the next generation. On the whole, this is a movie made specifically for women. It is worth our appreciation.。

喜福会英文观后感ReviewsonTheJoyLuckClub——电影《喜福会》英文影评、观后感Reviews on The Joy Luck Club——"This feather may look worthless... but it comes from afar and carries with it... all my good intentions."At the very beginning of the movie, it tells a story about an old woman who bought a swan for a foolish sum and brought it to America. This story was mentioned three times in total in this movie, which is connected to June and her mother. This story also reflected "the best quality hope " that June's mother gave to her.SUMMARY OF THE MOVIEMother No.1: SuyuanDaughter No.1: JuneDuring wartime, Suyuan was forced to migrate to Chongqing, carrying her loved twin babies. Take her miserable fate into consideration, Suyuan abandoned both of her babies and keep on escaping. Surprisingly she was survived, and her heart was broken. Her babies were also rescued by someone else.June hasn't started a family yet. After knowing her two uterine sisters were still alive, she decided to go to China to meet them.Mother No.2: LinduoDaughter No.2: WaverlyWhen Linduo was 4, she was engaged with a younger fat boy in a rich family. She couldn't bear the insults so she designed a lie to escape from the house. After that, she got a ticket to Shanghai. Waverly is genius in plying chess and she thought whatever she did, she couldn't get her mother's pleasure. Yet, her marriage to a foreigner is an exception, and misunderstanding between them was also dissolved.Mother No.3: YingyingDaughter No.3: LenaWhen Yingying was 16, she fall in love with a very handsome man and became pregnant before they got married. Their marriage was a failure, and she had no choice but kill her baby in order to "take away the only thing that she shears with her polygamous husband.Lena also had an unsuccessful marriage, she and her husband count every bill in completely detail, they take "fifty-fifty" policy. After being enlightened by her mother, she knew what to do.Mother No.4: AnmeiDaughter No.4: RoseAnmei's mother was raped by a man of wealth and was forced to be the man's fourth wife. Although her family members didn't trust her explains and evicted her from the house, she still loves her old ill mother and cut her own flesh to cure her dying mother.Rose got married with a boss owing a big wine chateau, however, all things she had done to her husband didn't pay off ---her husband's dishonesty drove their marriage to breakdown even had had a lovely daughter.Suyuan, Linduo, Yingying and Anmei, those four Chinese woman's story is the highlight of the movie. They were all insulted and maltreated by Chinese old feudalism in the old society. In order to lead a happy life, they moved to America to build up a new family. Thankfully, their daughters' life are not too bad as theirs and they speak fluent American English.The movie presents the four daughters' personal life, and then lead us to the four ladies' gloomy experience skillfully. Playing mahjong, reading the letter and gathering at the banquet are also the dispensable parts.There are a few points that impressed me:Firstly—the story behind the swan feather. The feather is an embodiment of the hope that Suyan delivered to June, and the hope also represented June' two twin sister. Secondly—fluent American English spoken by those several old Chinese woman and their yellow skin daughters. Fluent American English represented that the four ladies has live in America for many years and they have been accustomed to the American lifestyle. Thirdly—layouts in the four ladies' house and the garments they four wear. There are many antique stuffs with Chinese style scattering in the house. The clothes were also typical in Chinese style.At the end of the movie, June met her two twin sisters, she told them that their mother had already dead, and they burst into tears, simultaneously, so do I.The four ladies migrated from China to America, and brought their cultural background to there anddelivered it to their daughters. It was their mothers' tough experience that taught the girls to learn to be strong and excellent in their own life.(All the contents are written by myself, not derive from the Internet)四川农业大学英语系周记民2016.6.26。

Film Review on The Joy Luck ClubAfter watching the film The Joy Luck Club, I can see as long as we wish, our girls destiny can never be a tragedy. Many people may ask why I would say so, that is because the time which a woman’s destiny and honor is decid ed by his husband has passed.The mother and the daughter in the film came across different love stories, their characters might be genetic, and their destiny had coincidental similarities. The mothers trying to escape from the Feudal China and the daughters growing up in America since birth, different stories have the same theme,that is:to make efforts to gain love and dignity.Due to my natural optimism, I believe the consequences of making efforts is to get love and dignity. It’s like one of the moth ers told her daughter, ”unless he givesyou the love and the dignity you want, you should leave him! Not until your leftwill you find that you should be cherished,” The upset daughter was beaten byheavy life burden, her mean husband fussing over money satirized,” you want a change? Then you should consider carefully the prize you need to pay.” After a few years, on a party, the daughter face is noticeably more radiant, as if a totallydifferent person, and her new husband by her is handsome, considerate and also sweet.Being in a relationship needs love and respect with each other, and neither ofthem can be dismissed. There is no need to put up with just because you are a woman. Love is not the reason of being mean, love should be given to someone who deserves.The film is not encouraging the girls to give up a relationship on small dissatisfaction. You can not abandon your family for your thirst for wealth. If you did so, you would deserve some pain,For contemporary girls, we don’t have sad life b ecause we all have beyond standard education opportunity, so we have condition to be economically independent. What’s more, we all have the ability to think and choose. The right to chase happiness is inalienable and self-evident.The modern and the tradition both exists in the society now, somewomen walk farther and farther in the way of career, some other women are strongly eagerly for family life. There is no judgment for which wayis better, as long as it suits for yourself. Business gives people thefeeling of success and achievement while family gives us warmth and, people who get both is tired but happy.Meanwhile, the film indicates a reduction of the bound between the cultural identifications, it appeals to us that we need to eliminate the cultural oppositions and achieve the peace and combination of various civilization of different nations and races all over the world.。

The Joy Luck ClubMost films these days are easy to describe because they fit into types such as love stories or thrilliers. But The Joy Luck Club is different. It is a story about love and conflicts between four daughters and their mothers.The joy club club is a film based on the best selling novel by Amy Tan of the same name.It shows us the lives of four Chinese women who were new immigrants to Sanfrancisco during the 1950s. The four women acquaint themselves with each other by playing mahjong. They became closed friends because they had similar experiences and they called themselves the Joy Luck Club. As a mother, each of them has a lot of problems with their daughter.The film describes the relationship between the Joy Luck Club mothers and their daughters,and their cultural conflicts.It represents the process from misunderstandings, conflicts to understandings and harmony between mothers and their daughters.In this movie, the tender and complicated love betweenmothers and daughters certainly impressed and moved me a lot. Mother does not go to argue strongly on just grounds, argue with the daughter endlessly in the relation that the mother and daughter confront with each other, but adopt China's traditional forbearing and conciliatory method retreating in order to advance.It is one of the best movies I have ever seen in my life. It combines the stories of mothers and daughters to tell one sincere story of friendship. It is one of the finest pieces of acting collaberations among an ensemble cast. It also combines foreign film with American film in a way giving it a new style. I like the set up of the movie or the sequence rather, better than the book. It seemed to make more sense. Many of the performances were powerful. Even those who only spoke the Chinese language in the film should have gotten awards for performances that made me laugh and cry.Frankly speaking ,the film is worth watching. I believe , you will think a lot and feel a lot after watching it.。

“joy”or “join”---- culture shock between the east and the westThe joy luck of club is the title of this novel. It is also held by Suyuan, Jingmei’s mother, to gather 4 families immigrated to America in 1949. What is the purpose of holding such a party each week? The answer is to be joyful as the name of party------ the joy luck club. 4 old ladies always play maijiang and tell funny stories in the party. Everyone here tries his or her best to pretend to be happy. However, deeply inside their hearts, all of them have their own sorrows.What makes them unhappy? Those pains are caused not only by their lives in old China but also by the misunderstanding of their own America-born daughters. So I think the name of the book is ironic.How come daughters do not understand their mothers? It is caused by culture shock between the east and the west.“3 obedience and 4 virtues”vs. Individual freedomIn Chinese tradition, wives must follow her own parents, husbands and parents-in-low. They are not allowed to have their own idea and have no right to choose their own life. If they do not obey the rules, they will be considered to be a bad woman. This point is shown in the first part of the book------- 4 mothers’sad lives in old China. Although they have escaped from China, they also have Chinese traditional characters.However, in America, children have equal rights with their parents. They can choose their own life in the way of they like. It is not difficult to understand why American-born daughters cannot like the way of their mothers educate them.Take Waverly for example. Lindo asks her daughter to play chess and take part in a contest. After winning the game, Lindo boasts her daughter’s prize to others. Waverly can not understand this way and even hate this. She wrangles with her mother. In her view, it is her own honor. And it is none business of her mother. She asks her mother that if she wants to show off, wins the game by herself.Mothers would like a daughter to obey their wills while daughters would like to be free and independent.Criticism Vs. EncouragementChinese parents express their love to children through criticism. On the contrary, the American people show affection through encouragement.For example, Suyuan always compares her daughter Jingmei with Waverly. She always puts out Jingmei’s bad points. These things make jingmei unhappy. She believes that her mother wants to control her and likes Waverly more than her. In order to show resistance to her mother, she decides not to play the piano that her mother tries her best to let her learn.Suyuan wants her daughter to became a swan, which represents her hope. She left fromChina for seeking a better way to live and finding a new lifestyle for women. She intent to let her daughter have been respected by others instead of being a Chinese traditional woman. However she fails. The failure is indicated at the beginning of the book. When su yuan arrived in America the immigration officials pulls her swan away from her, leaving the women fluttering her arms and with only one swan feather for a memory.It is a tragedy to Jingmei as she really has a talent for playing the piano. She does not realize it until her mother died. The treason for this tragedy is misunderstanding between 2 generations in different cultures.Chinese vs. EnglishThe linguistic barrier exists between each mother and their children. The children alsys complains their mothers’bad English mixed with Chinese words. They think their mothers are stupid while mothers think children know nothing. It shows that there is lack of communication between 2 generations.All of these show culture shock between the east and the west.At the end of the book, this situation is changed. Jingmei can understand her mother’s love; Lindo accepts Waverly’s husband who is a foreigner that she dislikes; Lena approves her value to her American husband after her mother’s advice…daughters starts to understand their mothers and the west can understand the east.Now I realize another meaning of the joy luck club. “Joy”stands for “join”It is a link between the 2 generations. In the party daughters and mothers have meals and communicate together. It is also the link between the east and the west. Mothers show Chinese dishes here and play Chinese traditional game---- maijiang. And all different colors friends gather here. It signs conciliatory of these 2 cultures.用一桌“三缺一”的麻将,牵出数个女子人生的悲欢离合,小说《喜福会》起首就不凡。
