romance, drama - 93 mins.

Richie Ren / Cecilia Cheung / William So

A young hospital patient nick-named Onion (Richie Ren), because he suffers from an abnormal form of disease which causes his tears to run uncontrollably to the point where he is blinded and becomes a mute, develops a close relationship with nurse-trainee, Autumn (Cecilia Cheung). Unable to see or speak since he was eight, Onion goes through life a little differently than most people. He is killed in a car accident and, on his way to Heaven, Onion is granted one wish. His only wish? To see his love for just one more time. He is granted to stay for only five days with the ability to see and hear, but there is one catch - he will have the body of someone else and he cannot mention what had happened.

i miss this alot. i haven't seen it for years....i think it has a great storyline.

[monyi]

I saw it once and I don't have the courage to see it again, afraid that I will cry like crazy once more. ' Very touching movie indeed. Good performances from Cecilia and Richie considering the fact that they were newbies back then.

i just saw it. it's so emotional, guys don't usually cry watching movies, but this one's definately an exeption. one of the sadest movies i've ever seen. the performances from the two main lead are excellent. cecilia cheung plays her role to perfection. her crying scenes...were so real, so natural! it will make you feel so sad for character. the scene where richie ren was reading the diary, eyes turned red as tears slowly drop...the following scene where she began crying to the toy, blurting out her true feelings. wow, every scene is brilliantly crafted...the ending, was very well done! it makes the viewers think...i think if the story continued she might have commited suicide and finally meet him in polaris.

The greatest love movie of all time. This is my absolute favorite movie. I watched it like thousands of time. It's just so beautiful and heartwarming though it has a sad ending.


This is highly recommended movie.

agreee... this is definitely the best love story for catonese movies... should earn more Oscar than the GONE WITH THE WIND.
I have the original DVD, seen it more than 10 times..really a classic

Great movie!! A real weepie to get back out on a cold wintry evening!!! Or jsut when you need a good cry!!

Actually made me realise in the potential in Cecilia Cheung, never rated her before this but I think she's improving. She was great in Lost in Time!

those of you familiar with like 80s american films, the whole script seems similar to the movie "Ghost" with Patrick swayzey.

Anyways this was a good movie.. i had to choke back tears '
