Directed by Wong Kar-Wai
Starring Maggie Cheung, Tony Leung, Siu Ping Lam, Rebecca Pan
Academy's Valentines Day screening for 2021 is the original cut of Wong Kar Wai's masterpiece IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE:
'Hong Kong, 1962: Chow Mo wan (Tony Leung Chiu wai) and Su Li zhen (Maggie Cheung Man yuk) move into neighboring apartments on the same day. Their encounters are formal and polite—until a discovery about their spouses creates an intimate bond between them.'
At once delicately mannered and visually extravagant, Wong Kar wai’s In the Mood for Love is a masterful evocation of romantic longing and fleeting moments. With its aching musical soundtrack and exquisitely abstract cinematography by Christopher Doyle and Mark Lee Ping bin, this film has secured a place in the cinematic canon, and is a milestone in Wong’s redoubtable career.
Restored high definition digital transfer, supervised by director of photography Mark Lee Ping bin, with 5.1 surround DTS HD Master Audio soundtrack.
