This is quite possibly the most intricate movie the Betties have reviewed. We aren’t used to it! The Joy Luck Club is based on a novel by Amy Tan and weaves together past and present to tell the amazing stories of relationships between Asian mothers and daughters. Haven’t seen it in a while? Never fear, this is a plot forward podcast as Betsy, Jessica, and Kelly walk through each mother/daughter pair’s story detail by detail. This movie made us cry and laugh and dance. Maybe the pod will make you do those things too.
