电影《给阿嬷的情书》导演回应豆瓣高分：没有技巧，只有真心
According to director, 90% based on snippets he heard from old people, or research

 

[zwHrebmeM]

Bring your parents / grandparents to the movie when/if it screens in Singapore.
They will probably find relevance to the content.
Those elderly Chinese immigrants around the region (Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia) would probably feel it too.

Screening overseas still in the works

hard to have much screening in singapore due to dialect

 

[zwHrebmeM]

Whole promotion video don't even have a China red flag shown, you say leh

Budget film that started as a 小说 because director has no confidence that the script will attract producers....
Budget film that only brought a DSLR camera, a broom stick and an i-pad for filming on-location in Bangkok...
Budget film that was originally slotted for screening only in the Canton area...

Another brainwash mooobeeee?

Spend $$ to cry

More suitable for your parents/grandparents who have lived through that period or who has heard their parents talked about that period.

90% of the content based on actual stories of immigrants during that period, that's why can touch hearts

and I also just found out that Teochews/Hokkiens called girls "走仔" because they will be married off

Sure have. That era is mao/deng era. Confirm sing 红歌 in the middle for no reason.

I have to correct myself. After seeing the video, I think the Chinese migrated in the movie were from the republic era before the communist took over.

Trailer looks like AI lol

And the Teochew sounds a bit like Taiwanese Hokkien
