Ginny Branch“Incredible incredible film. The visuals are so stunning, you don’t even need sound on but actually you do want to pay attention to the story because who doesn’t love a beautiful heartbreak?”

Analisa Burns“the noodle scenes in In the Mood for Love (2000) – the food becomes the only thing they can share without crossing the line. every slow walk to the street stall for noodles feels heavier than a confession. you can feel the quiet unspoken feelings they have for each other-- the tense simmering in the silence. they’re always standing close, always almost saying something to each other. just comfortable happy to be in each other's company.”

Ada Griffin“Possibly the most beautiful film of all time? Every frame genuinely looks like it could be a painting and Tony Leung and Maggie Cheung are so perfectly cast and it’s just so deeply romantic and gorgeous”

Christine C“With respect to Sean and the gang at the Big Picture, I believe this is the best movie of the 21st century. A visual stunner, with an incredible soundtrack, this is also the peak of HK cinema, which gets very little recognition. (Did you know the Departed started off as a HK film, Infernal Affairs? I still like Infernal Affairs better) Tony Leung and Maggie Cheung may be two of the most beautiful people in the world, and the restless longing between the carries the film. And her dresses. Omg. The dresses.”
