Life is like a chess piece without regrets

All the encounters in the world are reunions after a long absence. Unexpectedly, Wong Kar-wai, who never liked to climb over that mountain, really turned over and saw a new world, although this world carried some old shadows.

Ye Wen and Gong Er had only played against each other once, but the few actual and false moves in the movie were more like a spiritual communication between the two. "It's my luck that I met you at the best time, but unfortunately I don't have time. Think about it, if you say that you have no regrets in life, you are just angry. If you have no regrets in life, how boring it would be." "There is no grudge between us, and some are just a fate." Gong Er chose to live in his own world, while Ye Wen did not, because he must climb over that mountain to discover another new world.

The shots of the martial arts are shot in slow motion, and every move is realistic and neat. The background lighting likes to use black and white tones, it really looks like a beautiful freehand Chinese landscape painting. If you don't forget, there will be echoes, there is nothing behind you, there is no turning back

    "All the encounters in the world are reunion for a long time", "If you never forget, there must be repercussions", "I met you at the best time, and it was my luck", "To be honest, I have you in my heart, I take this It’s okay to tell you something. It’s not against the law to like people, but I can only do so until I like them.”-The lines are really classic.

    In fact, you don't know her, and she doesn't know you. You just met at the most beautiful time, and then left a glimpse of the projection in your heart. If you don't forget, there will be echoes. Those voices are attached to a button, and they will be quietly refined into the ashes of time - in fact, this film should be called: the love of a generation of masters.

The Grandmaster quotes

  • Smoker: In the old days, if someone offered a smoke, the other had to accept even if he didn't smoke because otherwise, the man offering would lose face. Ip Man, please have a smoke.

    [Ip Man takes the cigarette...]

    Smoker: You have the gift. Had I been a few years younger, we would have sparred. It's been an honour...

    [walks off]

  • [Ip Man thrashes a goon who demands money allegedly for his mother's funeral]

    Ip Man: [gives money] This is prayer money. Sooner or later, you'll join your mother.

    Goon: Come to think of it, you remind me of my dad. Do you need a disciple?
