The 1960 Wong Tin-lam film "The Wild, Wild Rose" is an adaptation of the opera "Carmen" set to a backdrop of the clash between Shanghainese and Cantonese cultural and linguistic practices. The films of Wong Kar-wai, like "In the Mood for Love" and "Days of Being Wild" feature Shanghainese dialogue and explore themes of nostalgia for an old Shanghai left behind by emigres, with Wong himself being born in Shanghai.
