The Love of Love - Asian cinema masterpiece on love affair "live to die, bring"

"It was a moment of restlessness.
She lowered her head, giving him the opportunity to get closer.
But he can not, because of lack of courage.
She turned and walked. "

In the Mood for Love begins with these words, predicting the sadness of a full-on love affair.


In Hong Kong, in 1962, two couples moved to the Shanghai resettlement area. This is the family of Mr. Chu Mo (Tony Leung), a reporter and a wife often overtime or absent, and family of Tran - To Le Tran (Cheung Magnificent), letters Sign for a maritime company and your husband is also on a regular business trip. They are quiet people, rarely talk or interference in the lives of neighbors. Ms. Chen has a beautiful handbag, this is foreign goods, not sold in the country, the wife of the house next Chu also has the same. Charmed wife was given a tie, is also foreign goods, Chen wife discovered that her husband also wear a similar. These made Chu Mo Van and Su Le Tran keep thinking, they obviously knew the truth from the beginning, but did not have the courage to face it.

The initial greetings are embarrassing embarrassing, then the neighborly intimate, occasionally borrowing a few items, then the meeting to reveal about the wife they husband affair with each other, And finally, the love of wanting to move forward is not enough, but we can not give up.

Mood for LoveNo drama or climax, even the lines of the characters are very few. But what makes the Heart of Love the cinema of Asia is that it celebrates the cultural values ​​of the East by building a romance, both main characters love. Each other knows but never exceeds the limit. They love each other but needless to say, there is no kiss or sex scene. The relationship between Tô Lệ Trân and Chu Mộ Văn is not merely a love of a boy and a girl, it is not a love affair, as their spouse is secretly. They are each other's intimacy, is the basis for the opponent to hold in the loneliness martial arts. They remember the anxiety, when the enemy can not meet, share the passion of the sword, inspire the enemy to write,


Mood for Love is definitely a big challenge for many actors. But with the talented performances of Tony Leung and Maggie Cheung, the role of Chu Mo Van and Su Le Tran has never been so true, so beautiful and sad. No need for dialogue, no need for conflict or fierce debate, just look up from the eyes are bold Oriental, lightning fast eyelashes and slightly cheeky enough to make the viewer's heart. . Viewers also can feel her broken heart through graceful, elegant but lonely figure, sitting motionless, or play with, bewildered every time her hands softly on the stairs .


Tony Leung with a gentle manner, sad eyes, sometimes gazing down at Maggie Cheung in a gentle way, has shown excellent image of Chu Chu Van elegant but painful, The wife is adulterous and helpless because she can not reach the person she loves. The sadness of Chu Mo Van was also revealed when he worked in the office under the smoke, his calm gaze to Angkor Watt, standing alone and screaming to vibrate when secretly secretly with holes on the old wall.


In a scene between Chu Mao Van and his friend A Binh,

"In the past, if anyone has a secret they do not want to share with others, do you know what they will do?"

A replied: "How can I know?"

Chu Mo Van said: "They will climb to the top of the mountain, find a tree, cut a hole in the tree, and then whisper their secret into the hole. Then they filled the hole with mud. So the secret will be in that tree forever, no one will know. "

That is the way Chu Moo Van did to bury his secret and affection for Su Le Tran. After so many years, when he became a middle-aged man, he went to Angkor Watt, whispered a hole in the old, ruined wall, and then sealed it with mud. The love that Chu Mo Van and Tô Lệ Trân for each other, is love "live to die, carry", although not say, not to be together, but they still bring love for the enemy for To the end of life.

Love is a Chinese Flower , which means that the year of happiness is like a petal. Like the way the film ends with the nostalgic and regretful words, perhaps when Chu Mo Ruang is old, makes viewers remember the old but beautiful memories:

"He remembered the days gone by,
like looking through the dusty window.
The past is something that he can see, but can not touch.
And everything he saw was only blurry and unclear. "

If cinema is the thing to preserve the memory, then surely the Loving Heart will reign at the highest point of this art form.
