A Bittersweet Poignant Vignette of Magical Realism

Consise, nostalgic, and well worked snapshot of a story. The movie the same sort of poignant impressions afterward as the movie Past Lives, although the latter movie didn't have the same temporal 'trick'. Suspect these kind of narratives would have more positive impacts on older viewers than younger ones. As the FL says (paraphrasing), "timing is what matters."

Well written, well acted, well-paced, even with the jumping back and forth between times. And I throught that waiiting to bring Mu-Nee into the story after the early timeline was well positioned, rather than if it had been at the beginning.

One minor complaint - thought there should have been more elaboration on what had happened to Yong between leaving school and the book publishing, especially with the deliberate touch of showing his wedding ring at the signing.
