The Lover Reviews
An Emotionally Moving Love Story
"The Lover" is a very touching love story between two attractive people of very different backgrounds.
The main players in this drama, Tony Leung and Jane March, put forth wonderful acting performances. There is an extraordinary chemistry between them which is clearly identifiable on the screen. The steamy love scenes are very erotic and are some of the most explicit you'll ever see in a mainstream film.
Being an Asian male who has had many relationships with Caucasion women, I was able to identify with this film on a level that most others cannot.
A tremendous film. If you're a sucker for great romances, this is a must-own.
An autobiographical tale of lost loves that forever haunt
This film had the potential to be like 1988's Cinema Paradiso but turned into an over-the-top excercise in too much steam on film. Nonetheless, the story behind the film is based on the life of Margaret Duras, and the explosion of emotion that resulted in a long ago love. Watching this film just might have you determined to never marry anyone other than your true love. And perhaps to not set yourself up for tragedy with one who is wholly inappropriate. Luckily she got to leave the country (Vietnam for France) and the continent (Asia to Europe) after losing him forever.
