"She broke up with Hao-hao, but he always tracked her down. Called her... begged her to come back... Again and again. As if under a spell or hypnotized... She couldn't escape. She always came back.

Rarely nostalgia and juvenile lack of direction have been depicted so precisely. Shu Qi, the soundtrack and the stunning cinematography are among the many assets of this masterpiece.
I completely agree. The evocation of the 'fin de siècle' feeling that gripped young people (and has since turned into an almost 'end of the world' feeling) is conveyed with unprecedented finesse by this immense director.
This movie evokes the gallivanting I did to all sorts of Los Angeles bars from neighborhood to neighborhood when it was showing at Fairfax Cinemas around the early 2000s.
Just watched this today, same sentiments. I loved the beginning and end but the middle not so much. Cant wait to see if my feelings change when I rewatch down the line
@@Ynakgi MAJOR SPOILERS Because she went to Japan to follow Jack who left there to escape whatever issue he had because of Doze and since he went back to Taipei and never came back to Japan (it is assumed he was killed) she ended up alone so she met up with the japanese brothers she knew there
Randomly found the song looking in a playlist when looking for Long Day's Journey into Night's soundtrack, like it and find out it's from a movie. Then I find your video and wow... Look through a couple of your videos and I don't know how much editing you've done since I haven't seen the movies but your song choice and editing, I love it so much! Made me emotional both times in a couple of minutes, safe to say I added some movies to my watchlist.
Thank you so much, i'm glad you found my channel and liked my videos! By the way editing one of them requires from a couple of day (like this one), to a couple of weeks (like the last one I've published).
@@Clarencito Okay that's cool. Gonna have to take a look at that one and what else you got. Put the bells on too so ill be looking forward for whatever you put up next😅
@@padda2946 by the way i've made a playlist with what i consider my best videos so far, so you might want to check out that. if you want some more movie recommendations you can follow me on instagram! 😉
@@Clarencito Just rewatched the one on Taipei Story, really enjoyed that one and the small quotes you put under the videos. Is the playlist you're talking about the one in the bottom of your description? Gotta check that later. I'd definitely take recommendations but I dont really use insta, do you not really do recommendations on twitter?
@@padda2946 no, the Playlist I was talking about you can find it on my channel main page, under the name "recommended videos" Ps: I do have Twitter but i don't use it as much. I use Instagram because it's easier to reach people sharing film frames or ig stories.

This movie brings up this deep feeling of nostalgia with a bit of sadness that things will never be the same as then.

Thank you, I decided to watch this movie yesterday..
This song is really haunting 🖤🖤
Watch everything by Hou-Hsiao-hsien, you can't go wrong! 💙💙💙
Maybe it is a movie that should grow on me with a second watch, but that first scene is perfect. Banger soundtrack.
It will grow onto you like a friend from the past.

Just finished watching the movie & came here. Liked it very much.

그녀는 하오하오와 헤어졌지만,
그는 언제나 그녀에게 집착했다.
그녀에게 전화해, 제발 돌아오라고…
몇 번이고, 몇 번이고,
마치 주문이나 최면에 걸린 것처럼…
그녀는 벗어날 수 없었다.
언제나 그에게 돌아갔다.
그녀는 스스로에게 이렇게 말했다.
은행에 있는 50만불을 다 써버리는 때,
그녀가 그를 영원히 떠나는 때가 될 것이라고.
이 모든 것은 이미 10년 전의 일이다.
세계가 21세기를 환영하고, 새로운 밀레니엄을 축하하던 때에…
この映画を観たことはないが、この映像は私を特別な気分にする

I think this is Medicine for Healthy People, not pure person. Thanks for posting it though!
oh my god I'm levitating
❤
Donde se puede ver
Was this taken off of Spotify?
Sadly yes😭
Benji brought me here
??? Was this a music video or...?
I'm confused
It's my usual musical homage to the movie. Only this time i used the original soundtrack of the film.
I came here because of Joy's Video "Hello"
Too much of a promotion for smoking.
And I don't smoke 😂
