苏州河 / Suzhou River -- Intro

"Suzhou River (Chinese: 苏州河; pinyin: Sūzhōu Hé) is a 2000 film noir by Lou Ye about a tragic love story set in contemporary Shanghai. The film, though stylistically distinct, is typical of "Sixth Generation" Chinese filmmakers in its subject matter of contemporary China's gritty urban experience. The film stars Zhou Xun in a dual role as two different women and Jia Hongsheng as a man obsessed with finding a woman from his past." - Wikipedia

"If I leave you someday, would you look for me?" /

"Yes." /

"Would you look for me for ever?" /

"Yes." /

"You are lying."

A fantastic and evocative film, starring the simply wonderful Xun Zhou.
