JOY LUCK CLUB

watched some of Joy Luck Club with the girls last night..
that is, when I wasn't busy trying to appear online on Yahoo ;)
we'd watched it before, but it was still good..
very much a movie about Chinese culture and the past..
we remembered scenes from the book and seeing it before..

like that scene where the disgraced daughter comes back to the family home when her mother is dying, and then makes a soup out of the most tender part of her arm to serve to her mother in a vain effort to prevent her from dying (only the most dutiful daughter would do this, as the sacrifice and the pain is nothing)

I could list a whole bunch of scenes here..
but I recommend you read the book or view the movie..
suffice to say it was a very interesting flick!
