Sealed with a Kiss (1999)
Reviewed by: Yellow Hammer on 2001-05-10
The movie is about Kam Shui (Louis Koo), a mute person who lives and has an inn on Peng Chau island off of Hong Kong, his relationship with his tomboy buddy Angel (Su Au), and the girl that he meets (Mandy, played by Yoyo Mung) in his inn. She is trying to get away from a broken relationship by temporarily staying on this island. They meet while Kam Shui accidentally presses the play button on the tape recorder to the song Sealed With a Kiss. A nice and well-directed drama, but with an ending that probably wasn't necessary and certainly not expected. Has the Johnny To signature fast-forwarding and freeze-frame effects in the movie at many points in the movie.

Some observations: Yoyo Mung sure looks like a cross between Maggie Cheung and Michelle Reis. $250HK for that room she was in is not bad, has a great view, wish I could find this place.
