> "Do you know that adults are the stupidest creatures on earth? They think they can just make up stories to hide secrets." This is the most creative love triangle film I've ever seen (and not just because one corner is gay). The story is told from the point of view of the boy, maybe 10 years old, who is the real victim of the lies that the adults have perpetrated. The fascinating part is that, in the film, the truth is revealed in bits and pieces - in exactly the same way that the boy has learned the truth. The real tear-jerker is when we understand that last bit of backstory at the end of the film. There is comedy, humanity and pathos. This is a top notch film that had me ruminating on it for days after. If I have one issue, it's that the banter was too fast for us - we had to stop and rewind quite a few times to read the subtitles. Totally worth it though.

The Demon Wet Nurse (1992)
5.9 /10
This Category III period drama featuring power struggles and naughty things within the imperial palace walls definitely has effort put forth but immense chunks of plot holes are nowhere near filled up. Much seem missing in the story of poor Ru Yee who applies to be the nurse maid of the Emperor’s son. She gets help to gain access by Wei (Tan Lap-Man) and soon they are both heavily involved inside the palace. She as the nurse maid and he as a eunuch in training. Wei also finds time to murder Ru Yee’s sick husband and child… a fact barely mentioned after it’s happened.
