Talk:In the Mood for Love

message: The page gave "Fa yeung nin wa" as the Jyutping romanization, which is clearly wrong (see the Jyutping page). It _is_ the Yale romanization except with no tone marks. I imagine this one is given since it's what's used on IMDB, so I've labeled it as Yale and put the Yale tone-mark version in parens. If you're curious, the Jyutping would be: faa1 joeng6 nin4 waa4 which I believe is IPA /faː/ /jœːŋ/ /niːn/ /waː/ (but I'm not a Yue speaker, just familiar enough with Han characters to look up their romanization). 209.6.44.80 (talk) 22:33, 4 August 2010 (UTC)

:Do you mean "fa1 yeung6 nin4 wa4"? These numbers are the tone markers. See Yale Romanization#Tones. Kusma (討論) 02:21, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I see.  I have never seen numerals at the end of words  in transcriptions of Chinese before.  Does this conform to Wiki standards?  If so, fine.  If not, should either the standards or the entry be changed? Kdammers 09:08, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  font problems 

message: The two protagonists spent a night together?  What does that imply?  Perhaps with how subtle the movie is in places, I didn't see that, but I don't think what is being implied actually happened.  --Sephiroth9611 (talk) 14:43, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Sephiroth9611, this question is years old by know, and the plot summary has since been rewritten to more precisely cover what is explicitly revealed on-screen, but I'll try to tackle it anyway. The trouble is that the process by which Wong Kar-Wai made this film involved filming scenes from a variety of contradictory storylines, then assembling one coherent story through the editing and post-production processes. But there is evidence that at least some of these possible storylines involve a sexual liason between the two protagonists. An early trailer for the film contains a shot of the two having sex which did not make it into the film, and if I recall correctly there is commentary on the Criterion Collection edition of the film suggesting that Chow is the bioligical father of the son Su has in the penultimate scene of the film, though Chow doesn't know this himself. The final cut of the film, however, leaves this all rather ambiguous, and the editors of the plot summary have been right to reflect this ambiguity. Lunasspecto (talk) 02:29, 27 March 2012 (UTC)

message: IIRC, the second time he speaks into a hollow at Angkor Wat, there is a seedling in there. I came away from the film thinking that was as overt as the film got about the child being his. MMetro (talk) 11:50, 8 October 2013 (UTC)
