Criterion Saving Face (2004) - August 26, 2025


Quote:
A queer romantic comedy set in vibrant, multicultural New York City, Alice Wu’s irresistible feature debut breathed fresh life into the genre by combining snappy dialogue and a swooning love story with a poignant narrative about a mother and daughter coming to terms with each other. Just as Wil (Michelle Krusiec), a harried young surgical resident, begins a promising romance with the flirtatious dancer Vivian (Lynn Chen), her life is turned upside down when her more traditional Chinese mother (Joan Chen)—unwed and unexpectedly pregnant—moves in with her, forcing both women to confront the generational and cultural barriers that have long troubled their relationship. Both embracing and cleverly subverting rom-com conventions, Wu delivers a bighearted ode to the Chinese American diaspora, and the liberating joy of living one’s truth.

Very much looking forward to this, it's been shamefully OOP on disc for like 20 years!

Excellent. I doubt they could ever pry The Half Of It from Netflix, but I'd love that as well.

The cover artists were never good at selling this movie...

At least this one has a nice jade green theme going... It makes me think of Chinese dragon

Apparently, I made a DVD backup copy of the movie.
