Academy's Valentines Day screening for 2025 is Wong Kar Wai's romantic masterpiece In The Mood For Love:
'Hong Kong, 1962: Chow Mo wan (Tony Leung Chiu wai) and Su Li zhen (Maggie Cheung Man yuk) move into neighboring apartments on the same day. Their encounters are formal and polite—until a discovery about their spouses creates an intimate bond between them.'
At once delicately mannered and visually extravagant, Wong Kar wai’s In the Mood for Love is a masterful evocation of romantic longing and fleeting moments. With its aching musical soundtrack and exquisitely abstract cinematography by Christopher Doyle and Mark Lee Ping bin, this film has secured a place in the cinematic canon, and is a milestone in Wong’s redoubtable career.
Restored high definition digital transfer, supervised by director of photography Mark Lee Ping bin, with 5.1 surround DTS HD Master Audio soundtrack.
$2 per hour to a max of $12 on weekends and a $12 flat rate for weekday evenings at The Civic car park. Find out more.
