A Lovelorn Romantic: An ‘80s child star, Ke Huy Quan returns to acting as the husband of Yeoh’s character, a role blending action and drama.For this movie, she drew on her emotional reserves.

Summarizing it would take forever - literally! This movie’s plot is as full of twists and kinks as the pot of noodles that appears in an early scene. The filmmakers - who work under the name Daniels and who are best known for the wonderfully unclassifiable “Swiss Army Man” (starring Daniel Radcliffe as a flatulent corpse) - are happy to defy the laws of probability, plausibility and coherence. That would be “Everything Everywhere All at Once,” an exuberant swirl of genre anarchy directed by Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert.
