Adapted from Bizet's opera Carmen and Josef von Sternberg's The Blue Angel, The Wild, Wild Rose is undoubtedly one of the classics in Hong Kong cinema in every sense of the word. Grace Chang (Ge Lan) gives her most mesmerizing performance as a sensuous singer who seduces and destroys (both herself and the man she loves). She is nicely complemented by Zhang Yang as the inexperienced piano player who falls for her. The stylized production design and the cinematography of the film also set a high standard among the films of its kind. The songs by Japanese composer R. Hitori are memorable. But most surprising of all is the immaculate Mise-En-Scene of veteran filmmaker Wang Tianlin. All in all, a film not to be missed and one which deserves to be seen over and over again !
