In the Mood for Love 4K 2000 CHINESE

This movie, it's not about love. It is a film about memories, about how we remember first love. All we remember are pieces, a mosaic. And other people don't appear in the film because they mean something. They're there because the memories of love are connected to them. The landlady, the friend from work, they're there because they're glued to this old photograph. It was a good idea to have a slightly different actress for every scene, because we no longer remember our first love, and if we try, we can remember some details, but the overall image slips away, it's not given. In the film, the actress wears different dresses all the time, but they are all the same style, and what is the human body if not a dress? There is no her husband or his wife they are already erased from memory, but little things like the noodle thermos and the slippers and the umbrella and a hundred other little things remain because they are connected to her.

In fact, he keeps trying to remember, not her, but his love, for her. And when he succeeds, sad music plays. That music is his love...
