《面子》中顛覆的地方非常多。十多年前的《喜宴》這麼好看，但是喜愛之餘，總是帶著罪惡感和不安，因為《喜宴》到最後，還是以維護傳統家庭價值的保守態度喜劇收場。《面子》和《喜宴》面對的問題相同，都是（老掉牙的）世代、文化差異衝突；但《面子》卻是激進的。片中的媽媽搞未婚懷孕，女兒則是女同志，對中國傳統而言都是離經叛道的。全文請看 但唐謨的《面子》不錯看。

（中央社記者黃慧敏台北十八日電）華裔美籍影星楊雅慧（Michelle Krusiec）以電影「面子」（SavingFace）入圍第四十二屆金馬獎最佳女主角。電影公司原為她報名女配角，但評審認為她的演技可圈可點，主動將她改為角逐女主角，最後入圍最佳女主角。楊雅慧在片中飾演陳沖的女兒，金馬評審團主席陳耀圻說，楊雅慧在片中將一個女兒與母親間的衝突詮釋得十分有說服力，表現可圈可點。台灣觀眾對楊雅慧並不熟悉，連金馬獎入圍名單也只有她的英文名字。據博偉電影公司表示，楊雅慧一九七四年出生，畢業於維吉尼亞理工學院英文系，並曾在牛津大學讀書，隨後主持兩季探索頻道旅遊節目「世界嘉年華」。楊雅慧在退出「世界嘉年華」主持群後，很快就成為美國國家廣播電視網NBC週六晨間影集「One World」的固定班底，之後還參加「Cold Case」、「失蹤現場」、「神經妙探」和「急診室的春天」、「老公不出牆」等電視影集演出

[This is from Alice.]Last night, I took five of my mom's closest friends to dinner to thank them for their incredible support. These women have rallied friends, co-workers, children ("So-and-so's daughter has made a film, and you are going to see it! Study for finals later.") and slathered the Bay Area in posters. At one point, my Auntie Janet asked how the film was doing. "Really well," I

We had a smashing opening weekend in New York and LA and ended up with the 2nd Highest Per-Screen Average at $16,510 per screen (just below Star Wars, but ahead of the other dozen or so blockbusters we were competing with)!

Quote from Scarlet Cheng's interview with the director, Alice, in "Traditional? No way" on Los Angles Times (May 27, 2005): Although she [Alice] did not set out to make a "message film," she observes, "we so rarely see Asian American characters on screen who are allowed the full range of emotions. I think that's why people relate to this film: They forget everyone's Chinese — and it's because
