    25th Anniversary Director’s Cut - the longest version in history, five extra minutes

    They drifted past each other through Singapore, Hong Kong, and Angkor Wat in 1966. But in the dreamlike haze of 2001, on a night tinged with blueberry hues, this time, we won’t miss the fleeting reunion of Chow Mo-wan and Su Li-zhen in the convenience store. Now, perhaps, it can finally be the time for love...

    A film born for the cinema. 

    I could stay in the cinema forever just to keep listening to Yumeji’s Theme and watching Tony and Maggie’s faces on the silver screen again and again 🥺

    perhaps the best contemporary feminist film in China????

    A commercial film? Yes.  
    A comedy? Yes.  
    But it’s not just a new type of chick flick — it’s simply a film for half of the world’s population.

    also really love the mother-daughter relationship depicted in this film, come across a beautifully written comment from Weibo, so touching:

    "So many inheritance relationships in patriarchal systems—sons inherit their fathers' surnames, houses, and wealth, all of which are external possessions. But daughters inherit something truly belonging to their mothers: their reading habits, writing talent, sense of style, menstrual cycles, menopause, and even severe myopia..."
