Advantages: Subtle, touching, well acted. Disadvantages: None.
I have never seen one of Kar Wai Wong films before, and only saw this one after reading about his newest film 2046. The concept of that film intrigued me, so I looked into his previous films, and the praise that In The Mood For Love had received inspired me to seek it out. I'm glad that I did, because I wasn't disappointed at all.
The story in itself is a simple one. Two neighbours (Maggie Cheung and Tony Leung) discover that their respective spouses are having an affair with each other, and this draws them together. They discover they have more in common with each other than they do with their unfaithful spouses, and a friendship grows between them. Although they are becoming gradually closer, they insist that they will not end up going down the same route.
Set mostly in Hong Kong in the 1960s, the film is stunning visually ...
Advantages: Not too long Disadvantages: Subtitles do they give the full picture.?
My copy of the film In The Mood for love came as a freebie DVD presented by the Times. This a film by Wonng Kar - Wai has a censor PG (Parental Guidance) for children under 12 years old. The film is approx 94 minutes long. The film is presented by Jet Tone Films productions. My version came in its original language of Cantonese with English sub titles. The film was well received at the Cannes film festival in 2000.

Advantages: Beautiful, subtle tale Disadvantages: perhaps better in it's original language
For those of you who have never seen any of Wong Kar Wai's movies or even heard of him for that matter, In the Mood for Love will undoubtedly prove to be a bewildering, almost pointless movie, as I overheard two other people in the audience say. At first, I was pretty angry at those two people for failing to see the director's point or simply failing to see the implicit beauty hidden in other people's cultures. However, as a colleague of mine pointed out to me today, it was just their opinion on the movie. And I think I can concede that point. Other people's opinions are bound to differ from mine.
In the Mood For Love centers around the two characters, played by Tony Leung ( who won a best Actor award at Cannes for his portrayl of Mr. Chow in this movie ) and Maggie Cheung. With a stunningly evocative soundtrack ( reminiscent ...
