Details

A smoldering and lovelorn tale of two strangers who attempt to understand the infidelity of their respective partners in 1960s Hong Kong - IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE is soundtracked by a brilliant compilation of original score by Michael Galasso, Shigeru Umebayashi and period specific songs by Nat King Cole, and various Chinese Opera, and historic Pingtan recordings. In the film, the music is a character itself, representing the gulf of distance between the two delicate protagonists - full of promise, sadness and missed connections.
