    3 out of 5 stars lovely, but ...   April 5, 2006

    Lovely, particulary the scenes and use of lighting, but the story goes a little bit dull and adds very little to the old story of love and search for happiness.

    I just wanted to add a comment because I think this film deserves so much more attention!I liked this film. It is very quiet and slow but there is this tension from between the woman and her husbands friend (and her former boyfriend), and the emotions expressed more through the acting and not so much through words. You can't help but feel for all the characters.

    Originality is a hard thing to come by nowadays with many American blockbusters basing real life incidents into the films albeit with minor alterations. All re-makes are given a different look because of the new Directors attitude to the base of the film and upon watching the documentary that accompanies the film it's interesting to hear Tians views on such matters. On to the film, it's very good. Indeed, it's excellent. The acting is superb so much so that the absence of music easier to accept. As with a lot of Chinese films the budget isn't so big but this works well here as the director uses intimacy to get his point across (it is a love story after all) and the narrow surroundings give the atmosphere a cosy, intimate atmosphere. This film is one for romantics everywhere that's not to say it's a chick flick mind.
