This was one of the first homegrown movies to make a popular impression on the Taiwanese market, so this is a real nostalgic childhood watch for me. It's difficult to describe the joy and surprise we all had when seeing details so familiar to us on screen in a funny, romantic, non-arthouse family movie. I know many families who went to a first-run theater for the first time in their lives to catch this movie. We all had Cape No. 7 posters and fake burnished address plates and talked about wanting to become piano players like Da-da during elementary school recess. Revisited this recently and the charmingly messy Taiwanese images (three triplets sitting on a wall happily devouring sausages at the night market, a man on a scooter leaning over to pick up a fallen betel nut whilst waiting at a traffic light) still hit as much as ever.
