The CinePearl Take

In the Mood for Love is a 2000 Cantonese film that blends romance and drama — expect a love story at its heart and grounded performances and personal stakes. Wong Kar-wai directs and the script comes from Wong Kar-wai. Tony Leung and Maggie Cheung are among the leads. Made in Hong Kong, it is a natural pick for anyone exploring Cantonese-language films. Released in 2000, it has had time to build an audience and word of mouth. At 98 minutes, it is a comfortable evening's watch.
