This is a classic that requires the viewer to calm down and watch it slowly, slowly blending into it, and slowly walking through the years with the graceful cheongsam figure of the woman.
The story is very simple. Two middle-aged men and women are lonely, attracted to each other, have feelings, and finally separated. Finally, the hostess found her, and passed by after all.
The two actors have dedicated great performances, without any pretentiousness, no obvious performance characteristics, everything seems to be a recurrence of the past, every look at each other, every mistake is just right.
Maggie Cheung also spoke of the elegant beauty of women for cheongsam, and since then he has also fallen in love with this kind of clothing.

    Chow Mo-wan: Not everyone's like you.

  • Caption: He remembers those vanished years. As though looking through a dusty window pane, the past is something he could see, but not touch. And everything he sees is blurred and indistinct.
