In the Mood for Love (Criterion Collection, Blu-ray, 2000)

Description: Hong Kong, 1962: Chow Mo-Wan (Tony Leung Chiu Wai) and Su Li-Zhen (Maggie Cheung Man Yuk) move into neighboring apartments on the same day. Their encounters are formal and polite—until a discovery about their spouses creates an intimate bond between them. At once delicately mannered and visually extravagant, Wong Kar Wai’s In the Mood for Love is a masterful evocation of romantic longing and fleeting moments. With its aching soundtrack and exquisitely abstract cinematography by Christopher Doyle and Mark Lee Ping Bing, this film has been a major stylistic influence on the past two decades of cinema, and is a milestone in Wong’s redoubtable career BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES: Restored high-definition digital transfer, supervised by director of photography Mark Lee Ping-bin, with 5.1 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack Documentary from 2001 by Wong, chronicling the making of the film Hua yang de nian hua (2000), a short film by Wong Interview and cinema lesson from 2001 featuring Wong Press conference from the 2000 Toronto International Film Festival with actors Maggie Cheung Man Yuk and Tony Leung Chiu Wai Deleted scenes with optional commentary by Wong Two interviews with critic Tony Rayns, one about the film and the other about the soundtrack, featuring musical cues Trailers and TV spots PLUS: An essay by film critic Steve Erickson and a booklet featuring the Liu Yi Chang story that provided thematic inspiration for the film Cover by Lucien S.
