Movies We Love: a Savoy monthly film series that celebrates the movies we love most.

For Valentine’s Day, we’re screening In the Mood for Love (2000), Wong Kar-wai’s intoxicating masterpiece… and one of the most romantic movies ever made.

Set in 1960s Hong Kong, the film follows two neighbors, played by Maggie Cheung and Tony Leung, whose growing attraction simmers just beneath the surface after they discover their spouses’ affair. Lush, sensual, and unbearably beautiful, In the Mood for Love captures the electric pull of desire, the ache of restraint, and the quiet power of connection, making it the perfect Valentine’s Day watch.
