| Brief Description: | Dig in! This “funny and poignant comedy of manners” (The New York Times), directed and co-written by Oscar nominee Ang Lee (Sense and Sensibility), is an absolutely delicious feast! Winner of the Berlin Film Festival’s prestigious Golden Bear, The Wedding Banquet is “top-notch comedy” (Leonard Maltin)!
Successful New Yorker Wai Tung and his partner Simon are blissfully happy, except for one thing: Wai Tung’s conservative Taiwanese parents are determined he find a nice girl to marry! To please them – and get a tax break – he arranges a sham marriage to Wei Wei, a sexy go-getter in need of a green card. But when his family swoops down for the extravaganza, Wai Tung would do well to remember that, at a traditional Chinese wedding banquet, sexual repression takes the night off! |
