In the Mood for Love (The Criterion Collection)Label: Criterion CollectionDescription: 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.DIRECTOR-APPROVED 4K UHD + BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES * 4K digital restoration with 5.1 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack both supervised and approved by director Wong Kar Wai * One 4K UHD disc of the film and one Blu-ray with the film and special features * 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 * Interview from 2012 with critic Tony Rayns about the soundtrack * Deleted scenes with optional commentary by Wong * Music video * Trailer * PLUS: A new essay by novelist Charles Yu
