Drama Rice Rhapsody (alternative title Hainan Chicken Rice) (Chinese: 海南雞飯, literally meaning Hainanese chicken rice) was a 2004 Hong Kong production directed by Kenneth Bi. The cast included formerly popular Taiwanese actress Sylvia Chang and celebrity Chinese-American chef Martin Yan. The plot revolved around a contemporary Singaporean divorcée grappling with the homosexuality of her 2 eldest sons and dramatized her efforts to steer her third and youngest son's sexuality.[11]

It bombed at the box office and was panned especially by gay critics as being too artificial in its representation of Singapore life. Reviews of the film by Yawning Bread, Charles Tan and Ken Lee.[12] The film's message was generally one of tolerance.[11]
