Pros: beautiful video and audio encodes
Cons: not as affecting as The Joy Luck Club

Two stories of dual friendships across the centuries, Snow Flower and the Secret Fan is not quite the emotional journey the filmmakers intended it to be. Directed by Wayne Wang of the very emotionally charged The Joy Luck Club, the film is a lovely production and contains heartfelt performances, but neither story is grippingly compelling, and without that, one settles for two pleasant, somewhat parallel stories set almost two hundred years apart with honest emotions but not much in the way of dramatic momentum.
