In “Pushing Hands”, the first entry into his what would later be known as “Father Knows Best”-Trilogy, director Ang Lee had already explored the clash of Western and Eastern ideals. In this case, the main character, played by Lung Sihung (who plays the part of a father in every entry of the trilogy) has been living for quite some time in the US, without making any effort in trying to fit in, while at the same time attempting to preserve his Confucian views on life, character and the world in general. Since he had already finished the script for “The Wedding Banquet”, the second feature within the trilogy, this would be Lee's next project and the first one to be also released theatrically in the United States. This time, however, he would show a main character convinced he had evaded the traditions of his parents, until he can no longer hide from them.
