IN CINEMAS MARCH 27 – APRIL 2

SYNOPSIS:

Celebrate the 25th anniversary of IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE , one of the most alluring love stories of our time with Dendy’s one-week-only 4K restoration screenings of Wong Kar-wai’s masterpiece!

At once delicately mannered and visually extravagant, Wong celebrated opus 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.

In 1962 Hong Kong, two neighbours form a strong bond after both suspect extramarital activities of their spouses.

SYNOPSIS:

In this multi-award-winning tragi-comedy set in London, famed director Mike Leigh reunites with Marianne Jean-Baptiste for a compelling study of human strengths and weaknesses. 

The story revolves around Pansy, a hypersensitive woman who constantly criticizes her husband Curtley and adult son Moses, leading to their silence rather than argument. She often picks fights with strangers and shares her grievances with her empathetic sister Chantal.  As Pansy’s pain unfolds, the film questions the family’s breaking point, showcasing Leigh’s signature humour and compassion towards these complex characters.
