I just saw the Wedding Banquet at my local #AMC & this article helps to better inform #KellyMarieTran's performance in it.
However, I don't agree with the author of the article that this film was a remake of the original.
It's an entirely different movie which is only loosely based on the original and should stand in it's own right as a #queer #AsianAmerican #film that serves as a counter point to #JoyRide (2023), which was a mainly #straight Asian American film which also had a uniquely open (for an Asian American film) #sexual perspective.
