“如果要在这份爱前面加一个期限，我希望是：一万年。”

From the genius casting of the irreverent Chow as the Monkey King to the masterstroke of letting Buddhist monk Tang Xuanzang burst into The Platters' Only You, Lau's wildly imaginative Journey to the West adaptation is deservedly recognized for its sublime wackiness. Yet beneath all the time-travelling and supernatural slapstick of this postmodern two-parter is a traditional love story so cheesy it's actually romantic. Also featuring the now-customary Wong Kar-wai spoofs.

玩世不恭的周星驰就是孙悟空的最佳人选，而唐玄奘突然唱起五黑宝合唱团的《Only You》简直是神来之笔。这部后现代主义风格电影分为上下两集。刘镇伟对《西游记》的改编天马行空，荒诞至极。但片中包裹在时空穿梭以及超现实的搞笑情节之下的，是一段潇洒、唯美的传统爱情故事。影片中也有现在为人们熟悉的王家卫式的嘲讽。

Comrades: Almost a Love Story 《甜蜜蜜》 (1996)

“My aunt said, people will think you’re a Mainlander if they know you’re a fan of Teresa Teng.”

“姑妈说，给人家知道你喜欢听邓丽君，全世界都知道你是大陆人。”

Destiny is calling Lai’s new immigrant from northern China, who forms a ‘friendship’ – with benefits – with Cheung’s Guangzhou comrade out of loneliness and a shared passion for the Mandarin pop legend Teresa Teng. The catch? He has a fiancée back home and she has her materialistic ambitions to fulfil. Definitely a love story and certainly one of our cinema’s very best, Chan’s nine-times Hong Kong Film Awards winner charts the decade-spanning near-romance with acute cultural awareness and a sublime touch of emotional delicacy.
