SUMMARY:MSU Film Collective Screening - Eighteen Springs
DESCRIPTION:
 Professor Ellen McCallum presents a film in the 
 continuing MSU Film Collective Fall Series, 
 "Time and Memory."\n
 \n
 A modern take 
 on the melodrama, Ann Hui's adaptation of an 
 Eileen Chang novel casts Leon Lai and Wu Chien-lien 
 as young professionals in 1930s Shanghai 
 who fall in love and hope to marry. Through 
 image and voiceover, the film contrasts the 
 memories and perspectives that each member 
 of the central pair has on their courtship. 
  A beautiful, languidly paced film whose sense 
 of time passing, vigilance about the seductions 
 of nostalgia and memory, and evocation of 
 a key historical period brings the themes of 
 time and memory to the screen in an exquisitely 
 poignant way.  \n\n
