Beijing, 1988. On the cusp of middle age, Chen Hangdong has known little but success all his life... The eldest son of a senior government bureaucrat, he heads a fast-growing trading company and plays as hard as he works...His loyal lieutenant Liu Zheng is one of the few who know that Hangdong's tastes run to boys more than girls...Lan Yu is a country boy, newly arrived in Beijing to study architecture... More than most students, he is short of money and willing to try anything to earn some... He has run into Liu Zheng, who suggests that he could prostitute himself for one night to a gay pool-hall and bar owner... But Hangdong happens to be in the pool-hall that evening, and he nixes the deal. He takes Lan Yu home himself, and gives the young man what turns out to be a life-changing sexual initiation...(Wiki)

My Review:

Ok now this is another movie which has a lot of potential but failed to reach the mark ...The actors did an extremely good job and this has a very strong story line...Now i understand that this is a very daring attempt in the Hong-Kong film industry during that time...And hence there are some flaws associated with this...This is masterfully stylized and extremely deep...

The ending just leaves you wandering in deep thoughts...This is a very nice, moving picture...I personally admire this,,,For me the director played the vital role in this movie...He handled the subject so well and i must say a very well accomplished work...The love,emotion,bonding,sex everything is so well depicted...

My Rating: 8/10

Do watch it…Im sure you guys will love it too…
