Yelena’s witty humour was the best part of the movie. 😂👌🏻

Here’s an art piece I painted last month. Haven’t really had the time to sit and allow myself to enter into my creative space. It’s just been a lot of logic and data overload in my work.

Lost and lost
I feel I am going to call this the Fire saga.
I have quite a few “fire” strips now. Funny

I imagine that one day, I’ll be able to retreat to my own space and put my dream.
And the wind was knocking at my window…

Well said ❤️ never thought I would enjoy a movie from 2004 as much as this and I think just being Chinese, understanding what it means to be a responsible daughter and upholding honour, made this movie so much more impactful to me. Thank you, Alice Wu for fighting and bringing your creation to life.
This line in Saving Face always hits me really hard because my brain’s immediate reaction is always, “Well, yeah, you’re having a lesbian relationship–isn’t that illicit?”
It hits my own internalized structures of thinking really hard and I always have to assess and recalibrate. Because this is exactly how Wil thinks of their relationship: It is illicit because it’s a same-sex relationship. It is illicit because Wil is still in the closet. It is illicit because Wil needs to hide it.
But Vivian never saw it that way. Vivian sees Wil as her girlfriend, someone with whom she wants to share all aspects of her life, with whom she wants to go out and do all the things, whom she wants to introduce to her friends.
This is one of the things I really loved about Saving Face, about how Alice’s insistence to cast two Chinese American women eliminated the question of racial cultural clash within the relationship itself, and additionally let Alice explore the spectrum of experiences. Vivian isn’t closeted. She isn’t afraid. She talks about Wil with her mother. She has a completely different outlook about how she embodies and lives her sexual identity. It’s not illicit.
We sit with Wil’s discomfort and unease and secretiveness, but Vivian is always present to offer the counter-narrative. Vivian’s open lifestyle is never really a focus of the film but its subtle presence is so important. That Vivian has support systems in her life. That Vivian carries no shame. That, in a way, Vivian herself offers Wil an example: I’m a “good” Chinese girl like you. I live openly. (And my parents are okay with it.)
… I love this film so much.
