YesAsia Editorial Description

Samson Chiu (Golden Chicken) directs When I Fall in Love...With Both, a sensitive drama that depicts the trials of three women friends who correspond on the Internet - and coincidentally, each are caught in a love triangle with two different men! Fann Wong (Shanghai Knights) is a reporter who falls for a shy baker (Peter Ho) while caught in a relationship with a cosmopolitan, suave co-worker (James Lye). Theresa Lee is a woman about to marry, but she surprisingly falls for her own fiance's twin brother (the brothers are played by twins Sean and James Chen). And finally, the gorgeous Michelle Reis finds herself stuck between Alex Fong Chung Sun and David Wu, but hersituation may involve a fourth, unborn party whose father could be in question. Difficult choices are at the center of each modern woman's experience, as love, responsibility, and ultimately sacrifice weigh upon their hearts. No stranger to acclaimed melodramas, director Samson Chiu brings thoughtful, poignant, and sometimes bittersweet emotions to When I Fall in Love...With Both.

This version provides Chinese & English Sub-titles.

Professional Review of "When I Fall In Love...With Both"

October 16, 2006

This professional review refers to When I Fall In Love...With Both (Taiwan Version)
Based on a novel by Siu Kwun-hung, this three-part episodic romance is like reading three novellas back to back. Suffering slightly from anemia, and connected by the thinnest of internet devices, the movie will be enjoyable or not depending on one's tolerance for the three lead actresses: Singapore's Fann Wong, Michelle Reis (Fallen Angels), and Theresa Lee (Big Bullet). Each plays a woman living in a different country (Fann Wong is in Singapore, Teresa Lee is in Hong Kong, and Michelle Reis is in Macau) who must choose between two men. The choices move from the pedestrian to the baroque, but the tone is consistently cosmopolitan. Two of the three couples in the film live together, unmarried, without comment; families are radically reconfigured into new forms; and women are the engines driving these relationships, the life of the couple revolving around her personal choices.

Fann Wong's story outlines her love for two men - a serious co-worker and a nebbish baker. Story two features Theresa Lee about to get married who falls for her husband's twin brother, Wen. This segment posits a purer, more child-like way to live where one listens to their heart and follows its stirrings. Thinking gets us in trouble in this segment, we have to "feel" the right way and then follow our emotions to a better, more sensitive way of life. This can also be confused with being drunk, which is what happens to Theresa with stomach-knotting results.

Story three follows a skeletal Michelle Reis as she leaves her boyfriend (Alex Fong) to take a job in a wedding shop in Macau. Thrown together with co-worker David Wu (the Wu Man from Hong Kong's MTV, who has since become an accomplished dramatic actor) the two participate in A Moment of Romance promotion for the shop and fall in love. Buttressed by footage of the 1999 Macanese New Year celebration when Macau ended its last year of independence before it was handed back to China, this segment achieves the closest thing to genuine pathos, evoking a powerful scent of nostalgia that knocks you off your feet.

With evocative camera work and just the right wistful, middle-class theme music, the movie takes you unawares, operating on the same level as the longing yuppie romance novels of Robert James Waller. The plot gets a little forced, and the ending is pat, but there's an undeniable power at work in the crude plot devices and simple yearnings of a love movie that wears its heart on its sleeve and leaves irony at home.

Cute Look of Peter Ho Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10
This was one of the earliest movies Peter starred in, he looked so cute and shy and acted very inmature which was exactly what he should portray in this movie; a shy, soft spoken baking chef who fell in love with a reporter. This movie actually included 3 stories, 3 girls sharing with other their own love stories. As a whole, this movie is worth to watch.

Fann Wong's acting is great Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
The three actresses, with their respective stories, have pulled off a different movie, one that exposes the common dilemmmas of different societies. Fann Wong (from Singapore), Theresa Lee and Michelle Reis (from Hongkong) join forces to produce a film that is memorable and interesting. Fann Wong's Singapore story, in which she co-stars with James Lye and Peter Ho, is a humorous one which overlooks the common stereotypes of the Singapore male and the Singapore landscape to achieve a different, more childlike and innocent effect. Scenes of Fann playing as she mulls over which man to choose is very interesting. No doubt Fann is the prettiest of the three, she also can act and sing. The soundtracks in Theresa and Michelle's stories were all done by her. Notwithstanding the fact that Theresa Lee's story is quite an inaccurate portrayal of Hongkong's cynical, mercenary society, Theresa pulls her cute sweetie-pie figure off with aplomb. She plays a live-in girlfriend who falls in love with twin brothers James Chen and Sean Chen (Top Twinz). This storyline, albeit a bit cliched, showcases a good MTV sequence filmed by a videocam which is the platform for Fann Wong's emotion-evoking song, 'Stay'. Michelle Reis' Macau story is the most heartwrenching, and the most depressing. Fann's 'Secrets of the Moon' and 'Honey Beer' soundtrack make up a good soundtrack as Michelle finds herself torn over her old classmate (David Wu) and her old love (Alex Fong). She sleeps with both, gets pregnant but both men ditch her. This moving storyline gets added emphasis as Fann and Theresa tries to help over the Internet, in the midst of Michelle's emotional confusion and sobriety, and in the midst of bigger, colossal happenings like the Macanese dawn of independence in 1999 and the countdown to the new millennium in 2000. The story ends with a surprise twist, seeing Fann and Theresa fly over to Macau to meet up with Michelle. I quite liked Michelle's portrayal of a career-woman turned mother - it endears her to us. Theresa Lee's cutie-pie figure finally gains some form of maturity by the end of the movie. Fann Wong's character, too, gains a form of maturity as beautiful as her wide-eyed innocence at the start of the movie.
