Perhaps Love (2005) - Peter Ho-Sun Chan

A glorious Hong Kong musical that flashes back-forward and all over the place. This makes the film a little confusing just following who is who, being unfamiliar with nearly all of the performers here. With Christopher Doyle as the cinematographer, you can't be too surprised with the visual look of the picture. The music is a curiosity blending from actors singing to being a non-diegetic part of the soundtrack. An enjoyable film for sure, albeit a little melodramatic throughout, the strength of the performances carry it through. The film won the best picture prize in China, and is yet to receive any US distribution, but played at the Venice Film Festival.
