tempting heart
Sunday, April 17, 2011


I think I have watched more than 200 movies and amongst them all, I have a couple of favourites that I will never get tire of watching. Because with each watch, a new emotion is evoke. Sometimes, at the same scene, sometimes at a new scene.

It seems a little cheap to declare that Tempting Heart is my favourite movie as I always have a favourite movie. I mean, my OpenDiary username was "temptingheart" afterall!
But this movie does have this special place in my heart.Not because of anything but just the simplicity of the movie that holds so much meanings. The first time I watched was probably on Channel 8, during one of its re-runs and I am sure back then, me in my ugly hair and nerdish specs, I probably understood zero about the battle of emotions being portrayed.

I watched it again when I was a little older and then during later teenage years, I manage to find the VCD at Hong Kong and watched it again. Today, I watched it again. But for the first time, despite the repeat watchings, in its original Cantonese version, on YouTube.

On a separate note, I badly want to own the DVD of this movie. I can't seem to find the VCD at home. -cries-

心动 - 林晓培
“如果永远不能走在一起,
也至少给我们怀念的勇气,拥抱的权利。
好让你明白我心动的痕迹。”

The love between Gigi Leung and Takeshi Kaneshiro...was actually mirroring the experiences of Sylvia Chang, the director herself. Siu Rou and Kwan, loved each other but never ever got together again. They married and re-married but deep inside their hearts, there is always a space reserved for one another.

I teared at the last scene where Sylvia Chang was on the plane back to Hong Kong where she opened the box that Kwan gave her. Inside, it was filled with pictures of the skies, taken by Kwan at times when he missed her the most, over the years. From their puppy-love in the 70s to the early 90s when they were reunited.

It's 6.23am and I know should not be doing this nor YouTubing. I was reading my notes for the first 5 clips before I had my eyes solely on my laptop's 14.1inch screen.


Fav scene of all time.
Burrowing into the warmth of his jacket when you feel cold.

A love like theirs.
Someone whom you will always love but because of this strong history of love and the circumstances that entails, you choose to be apart.
And this is what makes love scary.
