Eternal Summer

Eternal Summer tells the story of Jonathan (Bryant Chang), a young man who finds himself in an enviable romantic predicament. On one hand, he has pretty Hong Kong university classmate Carrie (Kate Yeung) after him. The two share an idyllic day away from academic study and spend a day in the big city, after which they check into a love hotel. Jonathan calls it off when Carrie tries to get intimate with him. It turns out that he's in love with someone else, namely his childhood friend Shane (Joseph Chang), a roguish and handsome troublemaker who excels at basketball and seems to be headed nowhere in particular after high school. Eventually their fragile triangle of mutual affection and painful attraction is tested to the limit of their friendship when it becomes clear to Carrie that Shane has also harboured the same desire and love for Jonathan all along.

  Well shot and reasonably well acted, it was quite a good story - though to be fair, some scenes and elements of the storyline were complete fantasy. Worth a ... read more »
