YesAsia Editorial Description
Also known as Till We Meet Again, Au Revoir, Mon Amour is a lush romantic drama set during the Japanese occupation of Shanghai at the opening of the Second World War. The incomparable Anita Mui stars as a nightclub singer torn between two vastly different men: a member of the Chinese resistance (Tony Leung Ka Fai) and a lieutenant in the occupying Japanese army (Hidekazu Akai). What follows is an epic romance of love lost and regained, and the tragic sacrifices made during wartime by those on the fringes of the battlefield. Director Tony Au (Dream Lovers) brings wartime Shanghai to gorgeous, vibrant life, and the actors turn in powerful, emotionally compelling performances as characters whose lives play out against the backdrop of an unavoidable and oftentimes violent world at war. Anita Mui and co-star Carrie Ng both received acting nominations for their work at the 11th Hong Kong Film Awards.

One of the essential Hong Kong movies
| Director Tony Au must be some kind of magician. In "Au Revoir, Mon Amour" he manages to stuff a good 200 minutes of drama, action, and romance into this riveting 105-minute film. The first thing that strikes the viewer is the look and feel of this film; set in Shanghai during the Second World War, "Au Revoir" masterfully recreates the look and feel of that claustrophobic era of moribund decadence. The film hinges on a classic love triangle, a kind of Asian version of "Casablanca", with nightclub singer Anita Mui torn between her love for resistance fighter Tony Leung Ka-Fai and Japanese occupation officer Akai Hidekazu. Indeed, the film actually features two love triangles, as Mui's stepmother in the film (Carrie Ng at her most sultry) juggles both her marriage to Anita's father and her lust for the collaborationist security chief Norman Tsui. All of the leads deliver effective performances, with Anita Mui justly deserving her Best Actress nomination for this film. Also notable in a small role is Aoyama Chikako, as the OL who silently yearns for Akai Hidekazu's love; for once Aoyama wasn't required to disrobe, but simply allowed to create a memorable character in very little screen time. As the icing on the cake, the film serves up several lovely Anita Mui songs, including the award-winning "Hoh Yat". "Au Revoir, Mon Amour" is very highly recommended by your humble servant. |

Great acting
| Some fine acting from the diva here. If anyone is still in doubt if the woman could act after Rouge, well here's another showcase movie. The script itself tries to cover a lot of ground. Set in wartime Shanghai, the principals Anita Mui and Tony Leung do a good job of portraying one another's angst over love and country. The supporting cast also do a laudable job. |
