This has haunted me for some time--I simply cannot remember what movie this belongs to. The scene is this: People are gathered around a dinner table, the air is formal, perhaps a restaurant or formal dining room, a young (about 25-30 yrs old) woman stoically begains eating a whole flower, I believe a large tulip or an orchid. The eating of the flower seems to symbolizes an outward display of her descent into madness, and also in some sense, rebellion from her oppressive husband and societal role. The characters are asian, and I believe it was set during the 1920's or 30's. The timeframe of the film was 1986-1994. I think it was a "good" movie. Driving me crazy--anyone remember?
