Living in the rural Texas panhandle is a dysfunctional family: an abusive dad, a Vietnam vet with a war wound that's left him impotent; a compliant wife and a son of about 20, who have an incestuous relationship at the insistence of the dad; and, two small sons who look a lot like their brother. The dad harbors a secret, and he goes to murderous lengths to keep it hidden. The young man, Jimmy, who sleeps out in the shed, has suspicions, but little comes out until a Yankee woman of middle age comes to town looking for a dead private eye. And why does dad keep calling Jimmy, "little boy blue"?

戲名難免使人聯想到食色「性」也，但慾望的對象？對不起，卻是個男兒。美國蠔業大王有個刁蠻女，一天覺得自己非要嫁人不可，被媒人相中的落難歐洲王子派出心腹試探虛實，蠔女一聲多謝馬上拉去註冊結婚，當晚大排筵席，酒飽飯醉後只差沒半點洞房動機。直至窮王子真人現眼前，慾望傾瀉得一發不可收拾。女性情慾在劉別謙筆下從來都很坦然和直接，蠔女這荷里活女性原型，令後來者亦甘拜下風。揶揄資本家與消費社會的大場面可觀亦抵死，筆觸細膩幽默。劉別謙第二部長片，是他打造品牌之作，驚人的成熟導技令人擊節復感動。 　　 　　Everything Lubitsch learned about the art of comedy in his German period comes to a grand summation in this saber-sharp satire on the crass materialism of America's nouveau riche, and the pompous airs of the declining European aristocracy. Ossi, daughter of the oyster tycoon (but more like Attila the Hun than an heiress), demands a prince when the Shoe-cream King's daughter lands a count. Prince Nucky is chosen for his title and his debts. But when he sends his bald friend Josef to call on Ossi, he is mistaken for the prince. What follows is the most Gargantuan wedding feast ever filmed, with an assembly of 300 hired waiters and a peevish subversion of gender roles. 　　 　　Source: 28th HKIFF

正对濑户内海的冈山县牛窓市，虽然隶属于濑户内市，不过却被称为“日本的爱琴海”，此外《万叶集》中诗人柿本人麻吕对它的吟咏歌颂也让这座小城镇自古以来就为世人所熟知。靠海吃海的冈山县是日本境内仅次于广岛的牡蛎产地，当地人世代从事牡蛎的养殖工作。但是随着人口过疏化和老龄化问题的日益严重，从前牛窓市内的20所牡蛎加工厂已经锐减到6所了。为了缓解劳动力短缺的现状，这些工厂近些年开始接收来自中国的工人。受东日本大地震影响，原本在宫城县南三陆町世代经营牡蛎工厂的渡边先生不得不搬到牛窓，重新白手起家。他的工厂招进了两名中国人，语言、生活习俗的差异让彼此都感到艰难。附近的工厂里，则有中国工人一去不返的情况出现。举步维艰的牡蛎工厂，是否能够延续下去？ 　　本片是导演想田和弘“观察映画”系列的第六部。
