Kar-Wai Wong’s most acclaimed and popular film in his Love Trilogy stars Tony Leung and Maggie Cheung as two lonely neighbors in 1960’s Hong Kong. As their friendship grows over several nights, they slowly realize that their spouses are having an affair with each other, leaving the pair to come to terms with their situation, finding comfort in each other even as they resolve to not be unfaithful like their partners. A stunning display of visual poetry, In The Mood For Love crystallizes everything that characterizes Wong’s style, from the lush color palettes to the delicate emotional webs that connect the characters, reflecting not only on love, but betrayal, loss, and time.
