When 48-year-old widow Hwei-Lan Gao (Joan Chen) informs her less-than understanding father she's pregnant, he banishes her from Flushing until she remarries or proves Immaculate Conception. With nowhere else to go, Hwei-Lan moves in with her grown daughter, Wil (Michelle Krusiec), a Manhattan doctor who doesn't want a roommate, especially since she's met Viv (Lynn Chen), her sexy young lover. So Wil does what any dutiful child with an expectant, unmarried mother on her hands would do: she proceeds to set Hwei-Lan up with every eligible bachelor in town. © 2005 Screen Gems, Inc.

Hodnotenia a recenzie

I didn't even reach the half way point of this movie. It's not terrible but I didn't realize it was made in 2005 with all of the problems of gay cinema back then . The main character has her first same-sex relationship in this story and it's so cringe worthy that a woman who's been on the planet at least 24 years has no clue she's gay nor how to talk to another girl? Really? I tried but this stretched credibility too far for me. Maybe if this story had been set in middle school, all the awkwardness and not having a clue would be cute but in adults it's super annoying and kept pulling me out of what should have been a nice romantic drama. Instead, I decided I didn't want to spend another minute while this woman figured stuff out in time for the final scene.

This movie has a good love story. The characters are good, the love does not feel forced. Has with most LGBT people has moments of yup I have been there. If you like the trailer you would love this movie.

I had watched so many gay movies,this is the best,with warm happy ending. I'll rewatch it again,worth the money,hope it will have Saving Face 2
