玻璃之城

City of Glass (玻璃之城) starred by Leon Lai and Shu Qi is my favourite movie so far. Recently I have been trying so hard to get its VCD/DVD but to no avail.

Anyway, let me share with you the story...

On New Year's Eve 1997 in London, Hong Kong natives Raphael (Leon Lai) and Vivian (Shu Qi) die at the stroke of midnight in a car accident. They leave behind grown up children from other relationships, namely Daniel (Daniel Wu) and Suzie (Nicola Cheung), who now share the responsibility of bringing back their parents’ remains to Hong Kong. The story continues and begins by reminiscing about the lives of Raphael and Vivien in the 1960s…

Raphael and Vivian, college sweethearts in HK University who fell deeply in love in a time when youth mattered: the late 1960's. However, their true love comes to an end when their career-driven minds and political boundaries force them to separate and grow away from each other.

Yet their love was apparently a stronger power because years later it drew them back together - they unintentionally meet again in the 1990's. Now, they both have successful careers and more importantly - husband, wife and children of their own. From this point on comes re-discovered love that abruptly ends with tragedy.

The movie was touching and conveys various emotions such as love, separation, tough circumstances, difficult decisions, and so forth. Some of the most powerful scenes were associated with Raphael's rebellion during a protest, Raphael's father watching his son run away, and when Vivien knew that Raphael had to leave for France. These scenes express the hard feelings and "the power of goodbye."

City of Glass is beautifully executed and does well at serving the viewers with the feeling of missed memories.

I hope to watch this movie again... this time I am sure I will cry very hard... woo woo woo...

Can someone pls help me to get this VCD?
