Romantic drama
20 July 2023
Great acting by the lead actor and actress, this is a romantic drama that lets Erica Li (director, writer). I have watched this for probably the dozenth time on Disney+. I believe this movie is underrated and I was glad that Disney+ suggested it to me together with another Charlene Choi movie (77 Heartbreaks, also written by Erica Li).

I can't help but feel that Erica is trying to say something about how men misunderstands women (and I have to agree - as a man, I do think that way) and how some women are willing to sacrifice for love, in an old fashioned way. As a man, I already see the error in using the word "sacrifice" because that is exactly what Erica is trying to convey - it is not a sacrifice from the woman's point of view.

And that is what makes the romance worth it.

Heartfelt

Warning: Spoilers
I wasn't especially touched by the story of Eva and her husband. Why I gave this movie such a high rating was because of all the side stories:

Eva and Heartfelt Eva and her mom Eva and Shutter

I have not cried so much in a while after Shutter related the story (trying not to spoil the movie but I watched that part many times). I think not since the movie One Day with Anne Hathaway.

Also, did not even realize the part played by Gillian Chung until I read the credits. I guess I was more of a Charlene Choi person.

Overall, I would highly recommend this one as a "to watch" because of the theme provided by Heartfelt Shutter and that one heartbreak.

Found this gem by accident
26 June 2022
Like fate and Wednesday A*****, I found this by accident while looking for the new trailer on Netflix and it was amazing. I'm sorry the A***** Foundation decided to have this removed. Melissa Hunter, you're great and I hope you do more great stuff.

Watching this on some other person's YouTube that republished your work.
