Further complemented by the gentle lull of Nat King Cole songs, In The Mood For Love casts a dreamy and melancholic spell that remains unbroken long after the closing credits have rolled.

In the Mood is a love story told from the point of impact, at the heart, and no conventional resolution could be more profound.
