"A pleasure in never feeling pleased." A festival promo trailer has debuted for the Hong Kong romantic drama Love After Love, which is screening out of competition at this year's Venice Film Festival. The latest film from Hong Kong filmmaker Ann Hui, this looks sultry and sumptuous. It is an adaptation of an Eileen Chang short story, set in Hong Kong shortly before the start of World War II. Sandra Ma stars as a young girl who falls into her aunt's game of luring rich men. But then surprise, she finds herself genuinely attracted to playboy George Qiao, whose aim is to marry a wealthy girl to maintain his own high-end class lifestyle. Co-starring Eddie Peng as George, along with Faye Yu, Ning Chang, Wei Fan, and Isabella Leong. Featuring some gorgeous cinematography by DP Christopher Doyle. At first glance, this has the feeling of Wong Kar Wai's beloved In the Mood for Love. Here's hoping it's anywhere near as good as that. ›››
