Erm, and Jackie, if that question about rating was to me, i give it five kipper ties and three silk shirts . It's a wardrobe's worth of good film (might even knock your pants off )
That is not what I meant but thanks anyway!LOL!I better wear a skirt when I watch it so I don't get my pant knocked off!)LOL!
Anyway I just want to know if I can rate it!Is it Rated Pg-13 or R?

I believe it's PG. It's a beautiful movie...and one you can enjoy with your parents.

Erm, it's been too long already. I remember being a bit confused by a section with people moving in and out concerning the numbers - but basically - no. Why, is it some bizarre reference to a flat FF Coppola lived in when he learning movement techniques from pet lizards? Tell all

I believe he is refering to "2046", the title of Wong Kar Wai's upcoming film.

I just finished watching In the Mood for Love and am feeling quite sad right now. I think Kong hit the nail on the head by saying it had a beautiful and haunting ending, I’m certainly haunted by it. This is an exceptional movie.

That movie made me wake up and smell the coffee alright. Good to find a movie that can really affect you and change you.

WARNING: "In the Mood for Love" spoilers below
"Seize the day" we all say, but it takes a realised life-stream like this to make you really appreciate the sadness or gladness we can make for ourselves.

That final bit with the dusty window was just perfect. Or at least, i seem to remember the final poem/thoughts that went with it summed up the sentiment perfectly. Haunting stuff indeed. The ghosts of pasts we should have lived - and even the one we have



Despite the praise everybody likes to pile upon In the Mood for Love, I've got to say that despite being nice to look at, it really didn't do anything for me at all.

Ah, if he starts shooting off we can always pay a werewolf to bite him That's how it works isn't it?



I know, I know. I'm resurrecting a very old thread. This is the only thread I could find for this wonderful movie and I didn't want to start a new thread just to make a couple of comments about this film. So, if this offends the moderators/owners then please delete this post and this thread will sink back into its proper timeline.

Anyhow, I just want to say how much I like this movie. I saw it a long time ago but just watched it again, and I must say that just watching the very elegant Maggie Cheung walk is a great pleasure. What a sleek beauty she is. And, even though I'm a guy, I really love all the different dresses she wears. I'm a fan of Wong Kar-wai, having seen several of his movies, especially ChungKing Express and 2046, along with a couple others.

The originator of this thread did a great review so I won't repeat any of that here.



Oh, we don't mind thread resurrections here. I know it's verboten on other sites but I've never understood why.
Thanks.

Resurrection always seemed better to me than starting a new thread. It keeps all similar posts/thoughts in one place.

Default search searches for titles. Advance search lets you search whatever.

For reviews, though, you can go to the Reviews area and search for all tagged reviews of a given film (which in turn have links to where they were posted so you can find surrounding discussion): https://www.movieforums.com/reviews/...higher/843/any



Thanks boss!
