Overall: Article is new enough, long enough. I prefer ALT5, but it isn't quite cited in the article (the phrasing is similar, but it doesn't say it explicitly even though the hook supports it). All of the other hooks look okay, though given how frequently B&W is used for an auteur look I'm not keen on emphasizing that part. Earwig shows no issues, but the sources are all in Chinese, so AGF there. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 00:17, 21 November 2024 (UTC)
Chris, thanks for reviewing the article! I have rephrased the line about the opening sequence to better match the phrasing of ALT5, and I am happy to go with it. Regarding ALT3, I initially chose it as a hook because b&w films are relatively uncommon in Taiwanese cinema. The last Taiwanese b&w film (to my knowledge) was the 2009 film Cannot Live Without You. But upon further reflection, I agree that b&w films are not particularly rare internationally, and this may not resonate with readers who are unfamiliar with Taiwanese cinema, so I have struck it out. —Prince of Erebor（The Book of Mazarbul） 07:25, 21 November 2024 (UTC)

Tom Lin Shu-yu pointed out that this film is not an epic narrative, but rather delicately captures the complex emotional flow between a mother and daughter. He believes that black-and-white imagery removes the distraction of color, allowing the audience to focus more on the actors' performances.]

The locations were scouted, but unfortunately, they faced uncontrollable rain; if they filmed in the rain for one shot, they would have to consider continuity for the next shot, but there was no budget for a water truck... As a result, after a night of contemplation, Lin Shu-yu decided to use a single long take to accomplish this and utilized the extra roll of empty scenery to display the opening credits.]
