I did not expect the movie Saving Face to be this intriguing and thought-provoking. This movie directed by a Chinese American woman in the early 2000s is truly a pioneer in its discussion of homosexuality and Chinese American societies. The grandfather in the movie is portrayed to be adhering to his Chinese culture, practicing taiji on a basketball court every morning. Neighbors and other Chinese immigrants at Flushing adhere to their social tradition of gossiping and playing majiong. Jobs like doctors, lawyers, and ballerinas are desirable for the well-being of future generations. Conditions of marriage and family reputation are key to the Chinese families. It is under this condition of conservatism and tradition that Wil grew up. She grew up to be a friendly and introverted doctor who could speak Chinese to her family. Yet on the other side, she pursued her true “American” liberal self by accepting her own homosexuality and making friends with her black neighbor. She, in the movie, stands on the intersectionality of being a Chinese American and being a homosexual. Yet the movie portrays her life in a bubble of Chinese American community at Flushing. I wonder how a real person, under the circumstances similar to those of Wil, will be able to receive the happy ending scenario that the movie portrays in the real American society.
