Behind the Yellow Line

On his way to work "Paul" (Leslie Cheung) just happens to meet a beautiful young lady named "Monica" (Maggie Cheung) in the subway and falls in love at first sight. Wanting to know as much about her as he can he follows her everywhere. Unfortunately, as luck would have it another young woman by the name of "Anita" (Anita Mui) also happens to become attracted to Paul and as a result she begins to follow Paul. The difference though is that Anita is a trickster and enjoys having fun at Paul's expense. This creates all kinds of difficulties for Paul who has other things (i.e. Monica) on his mind. Now, as far as romantic comedies go this particular film wasn't too bad but it could have been much better if the director (Taylor Wong) had managed to put more cohesion between some of these scenes. Because of this I thought the overall movie seemed to be somewhat uneven. Be that as it may, Maggie Cheung was absolutely gorgeous and I thought both she and Leslie Cheung performed very well together. At any rate, given the erratic nature mentioned earlier I have to rate this movie as just average.
