I loved this movie. Directed by Xue Xiaolu in 2013, this romantic comedy was very entertaining, cute, and at the same time introduces some key points a foreigner may experience in US. Jiajia was a mistress of a wealthy Beijing tycoon. Because she couldn't have baby in China, due to her relationship with a married man, she ended up in Seattle to give birth. At the beginning of the movie Jiajia was a spoiled "princess". She was rude, materialistic, and egocentric person, who thought that a credit card could do anything. However, she meets with a wonderful person, Frank, who cares deeply about her and her baby when she was alone and "penny less". They fall in love, but Jiajia returns to her rich boyfriend, probably thinking that it would provide a better future for her baby. After a while she realized that she can't find her happiness in loneliness, and leaves her boyfriend. At the end of the film Frank and Jiajia get reunited, but now she is a hard working, caring person. I will recommend my students to watch this move because it has a strong message that the material wealth is nothing compared to love, care, and trust.
