My Favorite Season

About This Movie

So, 'My Favorite Season' is an interesting blend of comedy and drama that plays with the anxieties of young adulthood. Bi Bao-Liang, the protagonist, is this guy who’s superstitious about touching women, thinking it'll jinx his luck before he hits thirty. You’re drawn into his world where the stakes feel oddly relatable, especially with Liu Xiang-mei's situation—the whole affair, pregnancy, and her quest for a family name adds layers to the narrative. The pacing is kind of offbeat, but it works, giving time for the characters' quirks to breathe. There's something about the performances, particularly in how they navigate the awkwardness of their circumstances. The film captures a unique atmosphere, balancing humor and a touch of melancholy without feeling heavy-handed.
