Crazy Rich Asians

NYU economics professor Rachel Chu and her boyfriend Nick Young fly to Singapore for his best friend Colin Khoo and Araminta Lee's wedding. Flying first class, Nick confesses his family is wealthy but insists they will love her. After they arrive, Rachel visits her wealthy college roommate Goh Peik Lin, who reveals that Nick's family is extremely wealthy, have a real estate empire and are essentially Singapore royalty. Peik Lin helps her pick out an appropriate dress for the event and drives her to the dinner party at the sprawling Young estate. Rachel's first meeting with Nick's mother Eleanor is awkward, as she disapproves of her Americanness, putting her passions before family. Nick's only cousin who treats her kindly is his closest, Astrid Teo, who is married to Michael. He is a former soldier from a modest background, who is starting a tech company. Discovering that Michael is cheating, she is devastated. Fortunately, Rachel endears herself to Nick's grandmother, matriarch Shang Su Yi.
