Happy Together
Quote:
Happy Together (traditional Chinese: 春光乍洩; simplified Chinese: 春光乍泄; pinyin: Chūn guāng zhà xiè; jyutping: Ceon1 gwong1 za3 sit3) is a 1997 Hong Kong movie directed by Wong Kar-wai, starring Leslie Cheung and Tony Leung Chiu-Wai, that depicts a turbulent romance between two men. The English title is inspired by The Turtles' 1967 song, which is covered by Danny Chung (simplified Chinese: 钟定一; traditional Chinese: 鍾定一; pinyin: Zhōng Dìngyī; Cantonese Yale: Jūng Ding Yāt) on the film's soundtrack; the Chinese title (previously used for Michelangelo Antonioni's Blowup) is an idiomatic expression suggesting "the exposure of something indecent."
The film received positive reviews from several film festivals, including a win for Best Director at the 1997 Cannes Film Festival.
