So cute, sweet and charming in its depiction of young gay love. I felt my heart about to burst when Mew and Tong first kissed. I wished that I saw a film like this when I was younger. It would have done wonders for my self-esteem. Anyways, it's kinda messed up hiring someone to pretend to be your daughter so that your husband will get better, but it makes sense in the story. Not sure how it would play out in real life though. Although I absolutely loved the relationship and scenes of Mew and Tong, the other drama, such as the sister subplot, didn't really interest me, and I found the film to be quite slow. Also, really annoyed about that terrible ending. Why can't Tong be his boyfriend? Didn't his mother accept him when he chose a guy or a girl ornament to hang on the Christmas tree?

On a side note, I'm still on the search for my favourite gaysian film, which I have yet to find (though I do find 'Farwell, My Concubine' to be a masterpiece, I wouldn't say that it's my favourite gaysian film).
