A divorced San Francisco professor (Chris Tashima) is seen halfway between the end of his relationship with a Chinese-American woman (Allison Sie) and the beginning of one born in Vietnam (Joan Chen). Not a conventional story of facile romance, but an exploration of the issues beneath the surface, of race and self-image. Uncommonly absorbing. Directed by Eric Byler ("Charlotte Sometimes") and co-written by Byler and Shawn Wong, based on Wong's novel. Deeper and more moving in its adult thoughtfulness than the superficialities of most Hollywood romances. (None, 107 min.) Source: RogerEbert Headlines
