2009 台北金馬影展 Taipei Golden Horse Film Festival

清末時期位處英國租界地的上海高等妓院區，專門招待上流社會達官貴人，人稱「長三書院」。片中走入鶯鶯燕燕間酒酣耳熱的溫柔鄉，一探那欲拒還迎的耳鬢廝磨，精彩地以燈光明暗統合了淡出與淡入，將鏡頭與鏡頭之間相互串連而賦予高度質感，更透過這種斷斷續續的錯落手法，隱喻了倌人與客人間藕斷絲連卻又稍縱即逝的情愛關係。

Shanghai, the 1880s, four elegant brothels each has an auntie, a courtesan in her prime, older servants, and maturing girls in training. The men gather around tables of food, playing drinking games. The women live within dark-paneled walls. The atmosphere is stifling, as if Chekov was in China. Women fade, or connive, or despair.
