Product Description:

A portrait of the clubs aunties unfolds revealing the startling events and conditions that have shaped their lives and the lives of their precious daughters. Studio: Buena Vista Home Video Release Date: 10/14/2003 Starring: Ming-na Wen Lisa Lu Run time: 139 minutes Rating: R Director: Wayne Wang
Amazon.com:
The 1993 film adaptation of Amy Tan's bestselling novel is both a delight and a moving experience, an anthology of stories wrapped in one Chinese-American woman's journey to understand her roots. Wayne Wang (Eat a Bowl of Tea) directs a large, outstanding cast spread over eight different tales of the lives of Chinese women, most of them set in the past. The script by Tan and Ronald Bass (Rain Man) is a delicate balance of emotions that swell but don't gush, and Wang brings impressive texture and a personal feel to Tan's descriptions of daily life in the Chinese-American community. This sprawling, good-looking movie makes for a cathartic tearjerker one can feel good about. --Tom Keogh

- The Bittersweet Club"The Joy Luck Club" is an interesting movie. Like an assortment of dim sum, there are many flavors. It tells of four Chinese women who emigrate to the United States and the experiences of their daughters. It was produced by Oliver Stone, astoundingly, and directed by Wayne Wang at the beginning of his career. June (Ming-Na) is mourning the death of her mother,Suyuan,only to learn that she has half-sisters in China because of WWII. June now heads the Joy Luck Club,a gathering of women playing mah jong. ...

- Seeing It Through Changing Generational EyesThe very first time I saw this movie I was 17. My grandmother took me to see it.
As a teenage girl I was an emotional wreck over the mother-daughter dilemmas presented by this film. I cried the whole way through. I was so glad my grandmother brought a box of tissues with her.
I recently saw this movie again at 32 and felt engaged by it on a different level. Now understanding more the personal dilemmas of each of the female characters.
It's an interesting experience ... Read More
