This is a story of the trials women at various points in their lives have dealt with from multiple vantage points. Anyone will find a grounded element that reflects a piece of themselves. I love this movie!

I watched this film many years ago and enjoyed it. I had it on my wish list and needing an extra item to make up my order to free delivery decided to treat myself to it.
It explores the Mother/Daughter relationships over three generations and two different cultures, formed by personal experiences, expectations and desires; as well as the bonds of 'sisterhood' that form within friendships. The unfolding life histories of the mothers in the film (Chinese immigrants to the USA) reminded me to 'never judge a book by it's cover', and how motherhood bestows a great strength on body and mind.
The message it gave me was how, as women, in all cultures 'we' are sublimely (and sometimes openly) constrained by the system; even though deep down we have the want to be autonomous & be true to ourselves, and to pass this onto our daughters. It made me think of the saying "educate a man and you educate a person: educate a woman and you educate the world". The hard-learned essential life skills that are passed on between the generations of characters in this film are not found in any text book, and are still relevant today.
Definitely a thought-provoking, tear-jerker. I watch the dvds I buy many times and find that each time I notice something about the characters or the issues that I 'missed' before; I'm sure that Joy Luck Club will be one of those.
