Seductive charm of feminine beauty revealed in closed spaces.

Fa yeung nin wa (2000) directed by Wong Kar Wai

There is a very strong belief why the international audiences especially viewers in Europe and America have declared themselves to be the biggest of the besotted admirers of the Hong Kong film "In the mood for love" directed by Wong Kar Wai.According to many critical texts written about modern cinema, American and European cinema have completely lost the notion of feminine beauty. In contemporary times, it is in Asian cinema that this element has been found. If one looks closely at this film, it is not only the Hong Kong director Wong Kar Wai but also the Australian cinematographer Christopher Doyle who have virtually cashed on this aspect by making the leading actress Maggie Chaung appear as highly sensual,seductive and alluring."In the mood for love" also gives allusions about unrequited love made coherent through maximum use of closed spaces. It also looks as if the filmmaker is trying to convey that closed spaces are fruitful in bringing human beings closer to one another.As far as mystery element is concerned it has been depicted by not showing the respective spouses of the couple in love. These are some of the basis reasons for watching this film. Watch it more than once with your neighbor. You are surely gonna enjoy this film.
