He Baorong played by Leslie Cheung is an unfortunate character. He happens to be on the dividing line between annoying and perhaps understandable. If it weren't for Leslie Cheung's interpretation, the acceptance of this role would be much lower. Leslie Cheung's performance in the film is very open and delicate, especially his use of body language, which can be said to be the pinnacle. Whether it is with his lover in bed or dancing with his lover in the kitchen, it is amazing. Without Leslie Cheung's performance, this film will lack a lot of energy. "It's better for us to start all over again", which is a classic line in "Breakthrough". Wong Kar-wai let each of his films contain a few slightly hypocritical lines. They were then mercilessly swallowed up. I don't know how the director would feel if he saw the film being understood by them so many times.
