Tara Brady Irish Times Several of the plot twists might sit easy in a racy soap opera, but that powers the grandly-scaled film along. Rated: 4/5 Dec 11, 2019 Full Review Kevin Maher Times (UK) Magnificent film-making. Rated: 5/5 Dec 9, 2019 Full Review Wendy Ide Observer (UK) It's a gorgeous, melancholy masterpiece. Rated: 5/5 Dec 8, 2019 Full Review Yasser Medina Cinefilia Wang portrays a deeply moving drama about pain, guilt and the loss of a family at a contemplative pace, without losing sight of the human heart of his characters or the sociopolitical context of the changes in Chinese society.
