IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE

4 out of 5. Kar Wai Wong's IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE reinforces the sensitivity of a director toward the interplay of emotions and images. He gets relationships in their beautiful clumsy ways that give Ang Lee a run for his money. The costuming and casting is perfect. I love the two leads. You literally ache for these people to be together without all the Hollywood schmaltz that infects most things stateside.
