來自台灣英文補教界的奇蹟 - 李迪才導演 ( Rich Lee) 的出道作品"Sincerely Yours"即將在本週四登上紐約曼哈頓戲院了! 這是台灣人的驕傲,也讓我更能跟老外講 " I am from Taiwan, Yes, the Republic of China!"
The story is about migrant workers from Southeast Asia who swarm through the cities of Taiwan in Rich Lee’s debut film, “Sincerely Yours,” take the same kind of low-paying menial jobs as many immigrants in the United States. Setia (Lola Amaria), the film’s central character, is a divorced, 27-year-old Muslim woman from East Java with a 6-year-old daughter in Indonesia; as the movie opens, she is about to begin a new job scrubbing floors in a Taipei massage parlor.
“Sincerely Yours,” which begins a one-week engagement at the Museum of Modern Art, used to have a more descriptive English-language title: “Detours to Paradise.” Gazing dispassionately at the seedier Taipei neighborhoods where Setia and Supayong rendezvous in cheap hotels, the movie, a high point of the museum’s ContemporAsian film series, conveys a mood of urban desolation in an impersonal universe.
Opens on Thursday in Manhattan.
