Who nurtures the faith of a child when nothing remains to cover her eyes?

Hmm.

Eat Drink Man Woman (1994) and Fiddler on the Roof (1971) as a double feature.* Compare and contrast.

Discuss.

*The best double feature I ever saw was Julie Taymor's Titus (1999) and Alex Cox's Revengers Tragedy (2002). (Now that did things to my brain.) But this is also the sort of thinking that leads me to realize that The Crying Game's Fergus reminds me of Sydney Carton without the alcoholism and with better taste in women.

Chinese and Jewish families have a lot in common, but Tevye gets the operatic kvetch.

You've seen The Wedding Banquet?
