The verdict

Audiences rate it 7.3 out of 10 on TMDB across 607 votes — a solid score. It is not currently playing in Hong Kong cinemas. Category IIB · 95 minutes.

What it is about

Yuddy, a Hong Kong playboy known for breaking girls' hearts, tries to find solace and truth after discovering the woman who raised him isn't his mother.

What to expect

A single 35mm screening of Wong Kar-wai’s 1990 movie, playing in one cinema this week. Yuddy (Leslie Cheung) drifts through affairs with Maggie Cheung and Carina Lau after learning the woman who raised him isn’t his mother. The cast includes Andy Lau and Jacky Cheung. The print is authentic celluloid — grain, flicker, the works — not a digital restoration. At 95 minutes, rated IIB (sexual references, violence), with English subtitles on the Cantonese soundtrack. Cheapest ticket is HK$268. The pace is loose and the mood humid; if you already know the movie, the format is the draw. If you want a tight narrative, this isn’t it. Audience score sits at 7.3 from 607 votes.
