a moody mood

In my opinion, "In the Mood for Love" is about a feeling, the kind of romantic feeling in Hong Kong in the 1960s. A sexy woman in a cheongsam, and a handsome man in a suit, their encounter in this unstable era, without anyone even knowing and discovering it, was covered up in the dust of the years.

Maggie Cheung's Su Lizhen is superb in expression, attitude and words. When such a woman stands there, your eyeballs will be attracted to her, because of her amorous feelings, because of her inner story and real life . Director Wong Kar-wai's role is always fascinated before he begins to perform.

    Chow Mo-wan: They went up a mountain, found a tree, carved a hole in it, and whispered the secret into the hole. Then they covered it with mud. And leave the secret there forever.

    Ah Ping: What a pain! I'd just go to get laid.

    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.
