Ye Rutang:
You want to go to hospital. Perhaps I'm too noisy, but may I ask what happend?
Jin Yonghua: I work at a restaurant.They owed me some back-pay.When I asked for it, they beat me. I'm not afraid of anyone. So I fought back, of course.
Ye Rutang: Come on, in this day and age, there's law and order. Shall I go and talk to them?
Jin Yonghua: I can't get into more troubles. If anything else happens to me, it'll be worse for my daughter. She is in the hospital. I have to pay for her treatment. Auntie, you're a living Buddha. Can you give me some money?

When you see the beginning of the movie, you cannot think of the ending. The first half of the movie was very funny. The latter half of the movie was more into the realization and went sadder after. "The Post-Modern Life of My Aunt" is directed by Ann Hui. She is a wonderful director I would say. The story plot was a little bit ordinary, yet she did it so well to let audience or me to see something else more than just a plot. The script and story was very well written interweaving drama. the film's warm humanism transcends cultural borders. Siqin Gaowa, Chow Yun-fat played very well and so did Vicki Zhao Wei as the bitter, gutter-mouth, ghetto talking daughter of said aunt, who surprised me most.
