Showing as part of their reRun strand, the Picture House presents Wong Kar-wai’s esteemed masterpiece, In the Mood for Love.

Set against a smoky, rain-soaked 1960s Hong Kong, the lives of neighbours Chow Mo-wan and Su Li-zhen become quietly entwined after discovering a shared betrayal. What unfolds is a visually sublime, temporal meditation on desire, longing and human connection, and an aching love letter to a Hong Kong that no longer exists.

This year marks the 25th anniversary of the film’s release. A quarter-century on, it is enduringly beloved and celebrated not only as a landmark in Asian cinema, but as one of the greatest films ever made.

A stunning, sensory collage of colour and movement – paired with a gorgeous soundtrack – In the Mood for Love is definitely one to experience on the big screen.

Showing this Sunday 12th October at 2:30pm (last few tickets) and Wednesday 15th October at 1:45pm.
