  • Wonder how many people skipped to 0:19 to get past the pervy-sounding narrator...

  • i saw a bit of this movie on movieplex and i love it!!!

  • ya one chinese mother fucker fucking a red neck lady

  • @cereberal0assasin it's about "people" without the appropriate "exteriors", you dumbass!!!!

  • 1992 old film

  • rangahatimamanggoyamtirumgai

  • I love this movie.

  • wait a second, is that the guy that's wanted for rape by the us? now it all makes sense....

  • creepy

  • this looks old

  • what

  • This was filmed in VIetnam

  • ok THAT GUY IS CREEPY AND IS THE GIRL LIKE 13?!!!! AND MAN HE IS VERYYY CREEPY :S

  • @crazyKlutz122 the girl was 15 and he was in his late 20s. he truly loved her. you should read the book. i liked hte book better, especially since he never got violent with her in the book. he really loved her.

  • @crazyKlutz122 no, he is lucky

  • watch this full movie for free here eyefeed.net

  • just gives me chills..

  • A wonderful movie, one of my top 10!!!

  • someone should really tell her the window is rolled up...

  • someone knows the song of this trailer??

  • watching this movie i really wanted her hat lol

  • @faboul467 And I wanted her dress! :)

  • mmmmmmmm....AMWF FTW

  • This movie was so touching and so beautiful... i was so embarassed for her that her family acted the way they did. She was horrible in this movie but his character was wonderful. A must see :)

  • chời ơi ziệt nammmmmmmm :))

  • @deviatea then what was it then?After the dance party they went home and he slapped her across the face because he was upset then the part took place

  • plz watch the movie before post a comment, it's a beautiful movie.

  • The only thing I didn't like was the rape scene.At the party or whatever it was she was dancing with another guy he felt jealous and obviously he was.

  • @MrsBevy28 ..not rape

  • @MrsBevy28

    She was dancing with her brother :P Was that really rape, though?

  • wonderful

  • Superb film :P

  • Whenever thinking about the film "The Lover", I feel sad

  • To me she looks 15 and it made it impossible to fall n love with the movie for that reason. Nevertheless, I have it in my collection.

  • any twist in the movie? besides having sex all the time??

  • @Taobaak0 exactly...........its a PORN movie!!! huh......i mean i just dt und hw can a girl of 17 just let a man touch her like that.......she has no shame....i mean "LOVE" is different and "sex" is whole different thing........here both of them r just interested in pure sex!!!!! i hate when a good storyline dissappoints me..................(btw tht man is not even good looking *yuck*)

  • @Shruti880 This is so much more than "porn." Please watch the movie and you will see how truly inspiring and moving the film is. Its not just about sex, its about two people from totally different backgrounds meeting and shareing something intense. What she did was not shameful, merely curiousity. And the man didn't want sex at first, he truly did fall in love with her. So don't judge.

  • @TheYingyang123 -true, no pron here, only crafted art-house

  • @Shruti880 ---- incorrect

  • oh my darling lolita

  • I believe that when two people, who are dating are far apart in age--one 35 and the other 18 years old or the one 35 years old and the other one 65, they tend to make out more often than those how are either the same age or under 2 years apart.

  • now i wonna watch it!!!

  • Does anyone know where i can buy this?

  • @debruthre ebay

  • This seems to be...INTERRACIAL LOLICON!!! >:D

    hehehehe sorry, I remember seeing this, goodness, it was beautiful in many ways~ Felt bad at the ending but it was a good one -w-

  • Great movie and a true story.

  • I just want to buy the movie for the fashion lol!

  • Saddest damn movie I've ever seen. People who've never experienced it don't romanticize nothings greater than that pain of being pulled away from the one you love not by will but fate itself. It's a cruel thing to deal with. I fought and fought and only learned to hate her and now we are strangers because of something we couldn't control.

  • @bakariboss If you ahve seen this movie, tell me, did one of them die in the movie, and so, who?

  • @rockypallo no one died

  • @rockypallo no one die oh where her brother die coz he was drug addict

  • This is a great film with a breathtaking and lush soundtrack by Gabriel Yared.

  • It's a wonder that the girl never gets pregnant.

  • @LittleGigiK LOL

  • @LittleGigiK  I know, I always thought that too. Maybe he couldn't get her pregnant.....

  • watch this movie for free here->eyefeed.net

  • damn just watched this movie, man this movie is steamy even listing to the old cigarette hag narrate her love scenes, I had to grab on,,,, to the chair

  • its a french movie

  • UHM, PEDOPHILE! But anyway, I thought it was good, and it's a true story.

  • not sure about the pedophiles... it was a different time, back then it was perfectly normal for girls to get married from 13 or 14 yr old.

  • This movie is one that I can watch over and over again, and it never gets old. Absolutely wonderful and breathtaking. I only wish that the ending could have been less heartbreaking, though that's life, n'est pas?

  • Now some of us have to fall in love over the internet unfortunately. I wish that we can have a girlfriend that I can hug and not use them in words.

  • good movie, if times were like this now ha.. but yea good film

  • Gorgeous. Shocking too, the girl looks about 13. Beautifully done!

  • @newuser55 I'm Scottish-American, about as pale as you can get, and my first boyfriend (who I dated for 3 years) was Chinese. We certainly weren't the only Asian/Caucasian couple in my high school, either.

  • there is just .... sex !

  • anybody know the music playing in this movie

  • do u know any other movie like this >> I mean young girls like her

  • this looks so beautiful!

  • this movie had an impact on me and my sexual being, it was tragic and had an over all sence of how people can't control what the feel they must act on it while there is still time to do so. I saw it 20 years ago and if I saw it today I'm sure I would not like it that much.

  • love this movie.

  • love, love, love, this movie.

  • So of course the book is better plus the idea that it's part biography, taken from accounts that the author says happen to her, does give it a bit more romantic air.... I love this movie! times where different and u can't look at things with the same light as things are now, u just can't.

  • Real Asian ladies profiles you can chat with her now lushfmlk.info

  • good god, this movie is so flat and full of cliché, terribly theatric narrated and as some comments prove a wet dream for inhibited pedophiles. worst is that the wannabe artistic value is a welcome legitimacy to all these uptight peeping toms out there...

  • I cried like a baby. LoL! Its soo damn good! What happened to movies like this?!

  • Best movie.

  • I stumble to this movie by accident. Aside from the sexual content its the best romantic movie I have ever seen. Wish we had more like this coming from Hollywood with less sexual content.

  • .. wtf is this this lol

  • gran pelicula pero muy porno

  • i cant believe its in english i thought it was in french like the book

  • I loved the underage sex theme. A pedophiles dream. I got an erection watching the young girl get ravished by the odder man. Just to see her moan in pleasure was as good as any porn I've seen.

  • i just wish she had told him that she loved him too...........my heart was literally breaking for him near the end

  • @quashmongrel agreed. + i had no doubt tht she did, esp after reading the book

  • The movie has her actual age as 17, she lies to him telling him she's 18.

    In the book she's 15 1/2.

  • Thank you for sharing. Wow...I have to see this movie. To have such a love....would be the greatest gift in life. The sexual tension...is amazing. God bless! :0)

  • my favortie movie..so much poetic justice in this movie

  • oh I so want to watch this movie :)

  • I actually really liked this movie but this trailer does not do it justice, especially saying Playboy magazine says it's good? That kinda throws things into the wrong light!

  • @azeez050546 She lied and told him she's 17, when she was actually 15. She said it in the movie.

  • love this movie, great music hated it the end i cried so much i think i filled two buckets

  • @bravone1 yes, me too..waaaaaaaaa

  • the ending is sad. He was very much in love with her.

  • @Lovechild1801 she was in love with him too; she lied to herself to keep from being hurt and to save her pride

  • non esiste altro tema in fatto di colonne sonore ogni tanto nei film di recente programmazione lo rimandno ma in modo velato

  • iHated the friggin ending!!! iLiked everything EXCEPT FOR THAT ENDING...gah!

  • This is an amazing movie....the loved each other for their entire lives even though they couldn't be together.....

  • i love the book and the movie it's the only love story i can appreciate because it was a true story,tragic but real.I love the last scene where she just realized she must have loved him afer all.

  • Marguerite Duras' book is one of the best books I have ever read.

  • I need to watch this movie.

  • this is my very first hot movie, i remember seeing it after my parents went to work .... lol... i love the actors ...

  • fan page of the lover is now on facebook. search for it and join!

  • One of the most intimate films I have ever seen, it takes my breath away

  • THAT MOVIE TOOK My breathe away the first time saw it! AND IT STILL DOES!!

  • @ebangha It makes me cry every time. It's so powerful.

  • I found the full movie on

    Google Videos under title

    L'Amant

  • this movie is good, but lolita is much better!

  • where can i watch this movie? can someone please tell me?

  • i saw first Lolita and now i discovered The lover. I didn't knew that Lolita is a kind of remake of this... Music too is almost the same and so many images are just copied from The lover.. But honestly i prefer Lolita, is more sensible, realistic and psychological. You can see that meantime the cinema accumulated more experience.

  • which lolita did you see because there are two, one of which cam before this movie(its the 60's version)

  • the one with jeremy irons

  • yeah you saw the newer one, the older one is 1962.

  • Jane March is hot as hell in that film.

  • I'm very apprehensive about seeing this. The novel it was based on is, in my opinion, a flawless masterpiece. It would be very hard for it to live up to my expectations. However, these comments seem pretty positive, so I'll give it a shot. :)

  • The movie is fantastic but the real life account can be found in the book, The North China Lover. To get an idea of the true life Marguerite Duras and her lover,, Huynh Thuy Le, you need to read three of her books, The Sea Wall, The Lover and The North China Lover. Somewhere between the three is the truth. She also has an account of it in her booth the War Year Writtings. Sad to say the lover was short, ugly, and they might have made love once in two years.

  • The most beautiful interracial lovestory ever, and French director J.J. Annaud is a master of perfectly composed, highly estetical pictures. An absolute must-see for those who believe in the romantic, sensual aspect of love! One of my all-time-favourites!

  • Esto si que es un ayuntamiento carnal.

  • pedobear :0

  • that poor man, I felt so sorry for him :(

  • GamblerGirlX you're very intuitive. Yes, this is based on a true story and the man -- who was a widow at the time -- died some years back, and expressly chose to be buried at the cemetery closest to the road where the ferry landed.

  • Could anyone else notice that Jane March isn't fully white? Like I though it might be my imagination or something but when I looked it up I learned she is actually half chinese.

    It's still without a doubt, a wonderful movie though.

  • Jane March's dad in English, her mother is Vietnamese.

  • Great film!

  • Jane march is young, innocent, pretty, while the Lover, Tony Leung is masculine, caring, and loving. What a dream couple...=)

  • Those who liked The Lover might also like David Hamilton's film Laura.

  • Comment removed

  • tnx 4 the tips im gonna seach the movie

  • If you are looking for a movie about coming of age and not for the pedeolphia, try Virgin Suicides. That is a great movie about growing up. Reminds of growing up and that one girl you always admired from afar, the ending will shock a lot of you.

  • if you like erotica, "Lie with Me"

    "Swimming Pool"

    "Mi Madre" ...

  • i love this film

  • This movie is awesome...I love it. I bought the dvd.

  • The whole cinema cried, when she heard Chopin op. 69.2 leaving Vietnam and loosng her lover.

  • it's so hot it burns..daaaamn

  • when did this movie come out?

  • years ago.. i

  • Round 1991 :)

  • One of my favorite films! That Jane Marsh is HOT!

  • brilliant movie, brilliant role-play, brilliant mise-en-scene. even though i've seen this movie over and over, it's always like the first time. it takes back in time and it fills u with love. Also the music is great.

  • This novel is like the twin sister of Vladimir Nabokov's Lolita. And the movie is great too. I love it... (L)

  • The dirty old sod shes just a baby

  • i cant watch this video

    lets chat 22

  • I saw this today, cus my friend had to watch it for school.. its very graphic lol

  • bahasa jawi satu bahasa satu nusantara

  • Un film magnifique Un des plus beaux que j ai vu

  • i like this music

  • I love this movie as well as the novel. It's beautiful & heartbreaking at the same time. My favorite is the very last scene where he calls her decades later to tell her that he loved her, that he had always loved her & that he would love her until his death. Omg...! <3

  • PERFECTION

  • I thought it was chinese?

    but its actually vietnamese?

    i thought so when i saw the wedding scene and i was like, that's not chinese!

    looks good though, i'm gonna go find the book

  • the actor is Chinese

  • The story takes place in Vietnam. He is Chinese & she is French.

  • that wedding IS a traditional chinese wedding, at least from after 17th century onwards after manchu influence. the story takes place in vietnam but the guy is chinese

  • great book... I haven't seen the movie...

  • I prefer the book..

  • Me too. I do like the scene where she kisses the car widow though, it's quite moving. But over all yes, I like the book much more. ;)

  • Me too, but it's ok. Good luck!

  • josianne100 is a little stupid...

  • been looking for this movie since i last saw it. cant find it anywhere

  • I have to see this again soon. I remember really re-evaluating my ideas of what makes a romance worthwhile after seeing it.

  • I love this movie and have for a decade, really taught me not to take a fling for granted.

  • racist much

  • Remember I saw this Movie when I was 15 and a half (how strange he he)

    But I loved and STill LOVE the movie!

  • The book is Great too, BUT the movie is FANTASTC, the colours and maybe most importent is the music in the movie. Its just so touching... I LOVE that movie! Maybe too much;-) And for first time in my life I realy found a (masculine)"Star" realy atractive;-)

    Quit weírd when the movie has been maded when I barely was borne... ha ha, the chinese man must Have changed a bit since then;-)

  • Maybe someday the love will be free and no one

    will stick his/her nose between lovers.

    Maybe someday the will be what it was.

    But by now we have to struggle in the dark,

    and get along with a comercial and inhuman

    way of life.

    For everyone who has a banned love...

    you are not alone, there are people standing by for you.

  • May be someday the love be what it was.

  • jane march is one of the most beautiful youg lady, and the actoral paper of tony leung is amazing, I hope that you know his work with the director wokg kar way

  • J'adore ce film 2 ;(
