It's films like 'LIFE WITHOUT PRINCIPLE' that gain critical acclaim, but it's no secret that veteran director Johnnie To's more commercially successful films have been his romances written and co-directed with his regular collaborator Wai Kar Fai. The duo have teamed up once again for another romance aimed at the Mainland market, after their 'DON'T GO BREAKING MY HEART' became a modest hit.
Reuniting the cast of the original film, 'ROMANCING IN THIN AIR' tells the story of a Hong Kong actor (Louis Koo) who escapes to rural Yunnan after being abandoned at the altar by his girlfriend (Gao Yuanyuan) and falls in love with the owner of a local hotel played by Sammi Cheng.
The movie is scheduled for release next February.
