You'll have to excuse my memory because i saw this at a film festival 6 months ago.

A simple story with a love triangle. The focus is on miki Yeungs character, who works in Hung Chin-Ming mothers shop. Hung Chin-Ming has a crush on Miki Yeung but is unable to express himself. Miki Yeung bumps into SAm Lee while he tries to make some money selling dvds and they become friends and hang out a lot. Hung Chin-Ming becomes Sam Lee's customer and thats how the triangle is completed.

Miki yeungs grandmo character actually steals the show. A simple though predictable character,you feel the warmth from her.Performance wise, they all.......act there age!!

There are gangsters somehow attached to the story (sorry i cant remember) which leads to a unexpected ending.

It's a story about characters, teenagers who dont really have much going for them. I wish this movie could just go on and a sequel is highly unlikely.

I guess the moral of the story is sometimes to live the moment, and to hopefully not live without regret. Sometimes life is just too short

One of the top 5 movies of 2005 for me
