PLOT The story is relatively unique – throughout the movie we follow Linda as she takes a break from her busy acting life and, after unsuccessful wedding anniversary, sets off on a lone journey (accompanied by the taxi driver, Han Lei) to reminisce and reflect on her marriage. Overall, the plot is mostly rather slow (but not too slow), in line with its reflective character. There are some cliché elements (especially towards the end of the movie), but they do not spoil the show. The scenes and progression of events are convincing, although there was one a little annoying part of the plot involving Patrick’s secretary (but others might find it interesting). SETS A huge asset to the film is the scenery – much of the film shows Guilin’s breathtaking views. Also, there are some nice scenes featuring a traditional wedding in Guilin. Generally, the film offers views and situations, which are unusual (but refreshing!) from a perspective of a romantic movie centred around a famous actress. ACTORS AND CHARACTERS The acting was good. Of particular interest was the character of Han Lei – a taxi driver, who is an aspiring writer. Regrettably, this character is shown as more of a background to Linda’s story. LANGUAGE - For those with language preferences: Even though it is a Hong Kong production, the movie is actually mostly in Mandarin, because most of the action is set in mainland China and Han Lei is a character from mainland China. As far as I remember, there are only a few scenes in Cantonese, usually between Linda and Patrick. Overall, a pleasant, melancholic film reflecting on a neglected marriage.
