Review of The Joy Luck Club (1993) by Renee A — 05 Sep 2011
The film boasts quite an ensemble yet the performances failed to translate onscreen. What works in its favour are Rachel Portmanâ(TM)s work on the score and the narrative from Amy Tanâ(TM)s novel. These small vignettes come from the perspectives of four mothers and their respective daughters, focusing on family ties, tradition, the hardships of an older generation, and the expectations of a new one.
