An illegal immigrant and an abused woman find love together while facing adversity around them.
This orange-tinted coloring seems to be a stronger trend with each new batch of posters, which only diminishes the end result. Putting images of characters around the edge would be more fitting if this were a true ensemble piece, but it is not.
The more films that I preview, the more I realize just how few original stories are out there. This film seems hopelessly lost in a maze of cliche and false sentiment though at least Bai Ling creates a character you want to know more about.
None.
I have not seen this film.
