YesAsia Editorial Description

With its film script and direction provided by noted filmmaker Pan Lei, who just so happens to be a three time winner of the China Literary Award, Lover's Rock is one 60s era film with quite the "behind the scenes" pedigree. Actress Cheng Pei Pei, who has appeared in everything from the martial arts classic Come Drink With Me to the Oscar-winning Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon stars in this 1963 Shaw Brothers production opposite actor Qiao Zhuang, who himself has been featured in such Shaw films as Mist Over Dream Lake, Torrent of Desire, and Knight of Knights.

Lover's Rock begins its tale by focusing on a tiny fishing community on the coast of Taiwan. With its "slice of life" depiction of the local villagers, their curious ceremonies, and the beautiful landscapes surrounding the community, the film gives a picturesque representation of a happy coastal village. Once that setting is adequately established, Lover's Rock switches gears and refocuses its plot onto the budding romance between the characters played by Cheng Pei Pei and Qiao Zhuang.

For her efforts, Cheng Pei Pei took home the Golden Accolade Award from the International Association of Independent producers while the film also picked up the Best Art Direction trophy at the 11th Asian Film Festival and Best Music honors at the Golden Horse Awards. Featuring an appearance by actors Wen Ling and Wong Zung Seon (from Sword of Swords and A Cause to Kill, Pan Lei's Lover's Rock is one glorious romance worth revisiting!

Superb tale of life & love in a fishing village Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
"Lover's Rock" is a timeless romantic drama, but it also is so much more. Set in a small fishing village in Taiwan, the film stars a luminous Cheng Pei Pei (in her second film and the first in which she plays a female role) as the daughter of one of the town's wealthiest families, who returns home upon graduating from high school in the big city to stir up a storm of romantic interest in the local men and in an outsider (Qiao Zhuang) who comes to town on the same bus that brings Cheng Pei Pei home. The film adds themes of class conflict and of resentment against outsiders, as well as drawing a complex, full-bodied portrait of the lives of the rough and ready men who go to sea to fish and the families who wait and worry about them on shore. The film's story engrosses throughout and culminates in an unforgettable poetic ending. I just watched it last night and I already want to see it again!
