This story was mentioned three times in total in this movie, which is connected to June and her mother. This story also reflected "the best quality hope " that June's mother gave to her.SUMMARY OF THE MOVIEMother No.1: Suyuan Daughter No.1: JuneDuring wartime, Suyuan was forced to migrate to Chongqing, carrying her loved twin babies.

They were all insulted and maltreated by Chinese old feudalism in the old society. In order to lead a happy life, they moved to America to build up a new family. Thankfully, their daughters' life are not too bad as theirs and they speak fluent American English.The movie presents the four daughters' personal life, and then lead us to the four ladies' gloomy experience skillfully. Playing mahjong, reading the letter and gathering at the banquet are also the dispensable parts.There are a few points that impressed me: Firstlythe story behind the swan feather. The feather is an embodiment of the hope that Suyan delivered to June, and the hope also represented June' two twin sister. Secondlyfluent American English spoken by those several old Chinese woman and their yellow skin daughters. Fluent American English represented that the four ladies has live in America for many years and they have been accustomed to the American lifestyle. Thirdlylayouts in the four ladies' house and the garments they four wear. There are many antique stuffs with Chinese style scattering in the house. The clothes were also typical in Chinese style.At the end of the movie, June met her two twin sisters, she told them that their mother had already dead, and they burst into tears, simultaneously, so do I. The four ladies migrated from China to America, and brought their cultural background to there and delivered it to their daughters. It was their mothers' tough experience that taught the girls to learn to be strong and excellent in their own life.(All the contents are written by myself, not derive from the Internet)四川农业大学英语系 周记民2016.6.26专心-专注-专业
