A fairly pedestrian “love” story saved by fine film-making. Some of the things that set it apart:
1. The exercise of platonicism – so rare in film and so jarring.
2. The way Tony Leung holds and smokes his cigarettes.
3. The way Maggie Cheung moves in those dresses.
4. The way Wong Kar-wai uses Yumeji’s Theme.
