Joy luck club is the heart wrenching story of four Chinese American families and their history. The movie is narrated by four Chinese mothers who reflect on their personal struggles of their youth spent in China. The over all theme of the movie is one of determination and cultural assimilation.
My favorite part of the movie was when one of the women is telling the story of her mother bribing a matchmaker to set her daughter up with a wealthy husband. When the mother-in-law to be saw her infant future daughter in law, she commented, “She looks like a little brat…” Comments like this were common throughout the movie; I noticed that the Chinese seem to be much more blunt, perhaps even rude than other East Asian cultures. In any case, the matchmaker responded by saying “ohhh, but look at her round lucky face- she is sure to bring you many sons grandsons.”
The wedding was very elaborate; lots of dramatic colors (especially red), loud music, and ornate costumes. They made a point to pay respects to the ancestors shrine during the ceremony; later, it was the suspected anger off the ancestors that ended the marriage.
The Chinese seem to be a very superstitious people. Throughout the movie, people’s opinions and actions were heavily influenced by superstitious notions and accusations. The fact that they use a matchmaker to choose a spouse, and that they fear the opinion of their dead elders, shows that they value cultural practice, tradition and role-commitment more than they do emotional self-satisfaction. Another example of superstitious self-sacrifice was shown when one of the other four narrators recounts her mother slicing open her own arm in order to put her blood in a tea for her ailing grandmother.
