[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a female Euasian (i.e. half Asian/Caucasian). I haven’t seen the movie yet, but I already wish that the Americanized female role of Rachel would have been played by an Eurasian, instead of Nick’s role who was played by an Eurasian. [/quote]

But Rachel isn't Eurasian. She was full Chinese.[/quote]

Plus, Rachel's being ABC, but born in China is important to why Nick's mother and Ahma object to her. It becomes crucial to the plot in China Rich Girlfriend , as well.[/quote]

I have watched the movie and I actually don't understand what Nick's mom and Ah Ma had against Rachel. I mean, Nick could have brought home a white girl but he didn't. Rachel is still ethnically Chinese, with a PhD and an economist. It isn't as if she was a busker who couldn't hold her sh*t together. Obvious manifestations of American-ness can be changed, like learning that you don't hug on the first meeting (actually no hugging ever) and not approaching someone so openly (Princess Intan scene).
