I discovered this film just yesterday but i fell in love with it not because of the hot scenes it’s because of the story. It’s a very heartbreaking ending, the guy really loves the girl even if they all started with lust but he continued to love him until he die... what a very loyal and lovable man he is 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Don't we all start with lust? I hope so😉 She loved him too all right. Impossible not to cry at the end if you get that. It's a shame they didn't get to be together, but I'm glad they got to know this special, unforgettable love before going on with their destined lives. Too many people never get to, even with the people they marry.
@@bbmunchkins I know what you mean. My husband and I were 26 and 15 when we got together 42 years ago, and to this day I can tell you gladly that lust still has a role in our lives as it always has. Nothing crazy -- just enough to make things interesting😉
@@bbmunchkins Why would you? It wasn't a statement. It was a rhetorical question asked for entertainment purposes given the context and the beauty of the movie. Surely you understood that.
***** I don´t know, maybe thats true. But if the movie wasn´t based on a true story, I would say the whole point would just be that such a movie is supposed to promote the idea that such romances can have no happy endings at all.
The real life relationship was far less romantic, it was more of a brief fling with no emotional connection. The young girl (who authored the book) described the feeling of sex with him as "the aftermath of rape" and felt it was revolted.
This really reminds me of a past relationship. Yes I was the girl. He gave me his soul. The ship, in my case, sailed after he took his life a couple years later. Sometimes you don’t know how much a person means to you until the ship sails.
The Lover is a Franco-British film directed by Jean-Jacques Annaud, released in 1992. It is the film adaptation of the novel of the same name by Marguerite Duras, published in 1984. At 70, Marguerite Duras recounts her adolescence in Indochina and her “hidden periods”. The author evokes the difficult relationship with her mother, the love she has for her little brother, her physical attraction for a friend at boarding school, and in particular her relationship with a Chinese man twelve years older than her.
@@haruzanfuucha no because new yorkers feel that they're american, while hong kong people don't like to think of themselves as chinese; they have a stronger sense of independence, as hong kong is basically allowed to operate as its own country. though not exact, it's more like saying someone is not british, they're scottish. even though in the eyes of the world, scotland is technically considered within britain.
One of the best films I have ever seen. Great acting from Jane March & Tony Leung? Jean Moreau's voice over is so seductive. A wonderful film, much underrated. Critically acclaimed but I fail to understand why the masses didn't fall for the pure love in the film. Ahhhh amazing !
The parting ship from the land is very meaningful for me, like sad that she is living someone special but the clear skies and happy people on the ship promised a better life for her in Paris, as I watched the scene I also felt like leaving an old sad life to a much better life, powerful. I love the deepness of this film.
I believe if you all read the book this movie was based off you’d feel differently for the girl, or really the woman who wrote the book about her own life. You’d understand that she wasn’t selfish, but deeply traumatized and trying to survive. It’s a much more complex, beautiful story than the movie portrays. I highly suggest reading the book…!!
+Bruce Zhou when it came out i was 12 and i remember watching the preview. the song was so haunting. ended up the movie was too. cried like a baby. the narrator was amazing. i adore unconventional love stories. also, it's beautifully shot.
+Bruce Zhou not at all. i've just always been a fan of film. it does sound a bit much but i guess i was just mature enough to deal with it. watching it now at 35, i still have the same reaction. it's a classic.
would you happen to know any other movies just like this? I'm a sucker for asian man western woman romantic films especially if the guy is older. I would love to hear your recommendations. Even novels or books like that are fine :D
She was presumptuous, naively cruel, racist and callous. He would have made a great husband had she loved him. She didn't deserve him. Her tears at the end are only for the adventure he gave her that she will miss, but she did not miss him.
They both had their own issues. Is it really love if it is not reciprocated? Would he love her had she been older and not as beautiful? She shall miss the adventure but he shall miss her image. They don't miss each other. They miss only the things that surround the interior.
He loved her youth, initially, as he declared his love for her having not known anything about her. He may have fallen for her eventually, but he did so knowing in his heart that he would never truly be with her., so loving her would have no real repercussions. They were both just distracting each other in the end, her from her poverty, him from his lack of direction.
This kind of reminds me of Baby Doll. The same intensity. Now, Tony Leung was very handsome but he also looked great in a suit with slicked back hair. He had the face for a man wearing clothes of this era. Mind you he also looked great out of the suit as well.
she truly love him and she when(that night) realized it but she was too late ...she actually love him ever ...i think this movie amazing than la la land ...and one of the most underrated movie....
Been meaning to watch this for years, after having read the book in my youth. Definitely a very fanciful read. I'm a big fan of Tony Leung Ka Fai, and he did not disappoint. Jane March is ridiculously beautiful. The age gap and her looking younger than her age was a bit unsettling.
This movie hit me hard, I'm 22 years old and I got involved with a Punjabi guy, he told me he's getting married Christmas this year and he has no choice. I love him and it hurts.
Everything about this film still makes me cry. The impossibility of her first love and then leaving everything on a slow boat and then realizing that her heart is breaking to Chopin no less 😭
I love this film/book because there aren’t many love stories between an asian man an a western woman. If someone wants to recommend me more romances like this I would be very thankful ♥
I know a Cantonese Chinese guy that looks just like him in Los Angeles who is married to a French woman. He is a US Marine with two Iraq combat tours and runs a pharmacy in LA Chinatown. (No, he is not the armed citizen who stopped the robbery last week if you are thinking), but he is also a gun owning American patriot and flies the Stars and Stripes proudly.
the actress herself was 20, her character was 17. But the era the film was being based on it was still normal during 1920's for a girl of 17 to be married to an older guy.
When I learned that this was her true story it felt worst. When I searched it and saw that actually it wasn't I felt a lot better. No matter what,she gave us a great story
Lolita came out in 1955 lol, almost 30 years before Duras' novel came out. And the first film adaptation of Lolita came out in 1962, which is 30 years before this movie lol.
@@jviolet6910 the crazy thing is all the comments under here are people raving about the "beauty" and "romance" when that's exactly what this film is about! A young woman with a man! But everyone is rightly enraged when a teacher is charged with sleeping with their student. People are careless perverts!
Early life and education. March was born Jane March Horwood in Edgware, London. Her father, Bernard Horwood, was a design and technology secondary school teacher of English and Spanish ancestry. Her mother, Jean, a newsagent, is Vietnamese and Chinese.
I was 21 when I saw this in the theaters in NYC. I, too, had an affair with an older man who loved me deeply & enough to take an incredibly dangerous risk. I was 13, he 35 & my parents close friend. Say what you will, I know you will. But I loved him & he loved me. He left the state for a job overseas. And I know now it was because of me. We never saw each other again. He left me with love kindness & warmth that I needed. I’m forever grateful for the experience.
Would you be OK with your 13-year-old daughter doing this with a 35-year-old man? I can't imagine any mother being anything less than outraged and horrified.
Yes I love this movie when I first seen it I love it is a beautiful love story it is about two people fell in love with one another it just to show you he is rich and she is poor but as you look at it he did not care about if she was poor he fell in love with her what I don't like about it is about when you are in a rich family and you are rich but your parents control you supposed to be with and they pick your wife what are some look at this movie I think he wanted to marry her and he did he fell in love with her and she loved him but it made me cry at the end😂😂😂😂 when she was watching him married that woman that he did not want to marry that's just to show you rich people try to run their kids live but it is a beautiful love story I love watching it not because of the love scene I love watching it send to people fall in love😍💖💖💖😄
It is not about age,first I thought that guy using every women for enjoying but at the end I saw he loved her. She at first do that because she liked but after time, she realized that her inlove with him. But only when both become old then she told him that she loved him.
he is almost the best actor in China also one of the best actor worldwide in my eyes,in this film can you enjoy and appreciate his performance which is excellent ,he got thousands of face cuz any of roles could be tractable for him
sad, di manlang nila pinaglaban ang love nila sa isa't isa, and the fact na based on real story toh it saddened me more, and di ko lubos maisip kung gaano kasakit yung nararamdaman nila
Jane March was an erotic goddess at her time, and it's sad that she did not more movies. On the other hand, things are more precious when they are rare.
If I had seen the film at my 20s I would it is romantic. At my 40s I just saw a narcisistic and egocentric girl with a lot of lust, who only cares to the damage she is doing to the other in order to boost her ego. You can see it by the initial story she invents about the woman int he boat, that her lover had commited suicide. At the end she tries to be in better light by saying she only understood she was in love by hearing chopin... 😂 Not only she is now a saint but also an intelectual. Marguerite was a piece of work...
Seriously Playboy hailed this? Didn’t think that Playboy (assuming this means the magazine) would be able to find the incredible depth in films like this
It's a very good film.I wished it had ended on a happier note but reality rarely does.I didn't like the part when the older brother says 'You smell of chinese' and hits her.I actually left the film for 10 mins at that point so not sure what happened immediately after.
If you searced it you'll see that it actually never happened. A lot of what she says were confirmed lies and the lover came in many versions through other works of her.
Same here ! Married a Japanese man 4 years ago and never regretted ! I love him with every single drops of myself he is everything I needed in my life : gorgeous,sensitive,excellent lover,caring,loving...everyrhing I never had dating Caucasians or Latinos or others...Asian men needs more attention amd consideration not only they are gorgeous but they have no shame in showing their feelings,sensitivity and appreciation. Really this man I married is the love of my life ♡ And I married him I was only 26 and him 29 now I am 30 and him 33 still in love as the first day ♡ we are just the perfect 2 and never got hurt with him ♡
Their families disapproved? He should have taken her and went north, to Xinjiang or Inner Mongolia, which was the Wild West at that time. He could have made a name for himself in the Chinese mining corporations that were opening up the land during that time.
He would have made a way out for her, had she said that she loved him too, but she was far stronger than he. And she was white, so she probably felt a distaste anyways because of the racism in the culture
So many Lolita vibes in this... The music sounds the same, the car drives, and the way she kisses the glass

This is way better

And I married him I was only 26 and him 29 now I am 30 and him 33 still in love as the first day ♡ we are just the perfect 2 and never got hurt with him ♡

I've always had a crush on her older brother

🙄
How come... like attracted to someone that broke and f**ked up? that you want to mother him and rescue him? 😂 He is not even good looking...
I want the movie title
la mantle
He will be forever in this world THE LOVER¡¡ FOREVER¡¡¡❤❤❤❤😘😘😍😍😍
Does anyone know what the music is?
The movie soundtrack
what i l.ike about this movie they both fell in love, in spite of her age he wanted to married but is family disagree
Their families disapproved? He should have taken her and went north, to Xinjiang or Inner Mongolia, which was the Wild West at that time. He could have made a name for himself in the Chinese mining corporations that were opening up the land during that time.
He knows very well that he is nothing without his family's fortune. And that is a virtue when it comes to reality.
Okay,where's the hot Asians! come out!

Lust, Caution/se jie by ang lee
Pretty baby 1978
😍So many Lolita,.. Omg it just hit me with joy and peace 🌸🧸
He would have made a way out for her, had she said that she loved him too, but she was far stronger than he. And she was white, so she probably felt a distaste anyways because of the racism in the culture
this is my all fave movie!
thats one hell of a gripping plot you got there, 2 people smooching.
DÓNDE PUEDO VER LA PELÍCULA COMPLETA ALGUIEN ME DICE POR-FA?.
