In the Mood for Love (2000) Netflix

In the Mood for Love

Set in 1962 Hong Kong, In the Mood for Love follows two newly arrived couples who take rooms in the same cramped, Shanghainese-tinged apartment block. Chow, a newspaper editor, and Su Li‑zhen, a company secretary, find themselves repeatedly alone as their spouses are often away. When they quietly discover that their partners are having an affair with one another, the two lonely neighbors form a close companionship—agreeing to remain honorable yet unable to stop their feelings from deepening. The film traces their restrained, aching intimacy and the moral choices that keep desire unspoken, all rendered in a visually lush, melancholy portrait of longing and missed connection.
