In the Mood for Love is a 2000 Hong Kong art film directed by Wong Kar-wai, starring Maggie Cheung and Tony Leung Chiu Wai. Its original Chinese title is 花樣年華 (Simplified Chinese: 花样年华, Yale (Cantonese): fa1 yeung6 nin4 wa4, Hanyu pinyin: Huāyàng niánhuá), which means The Age of Blossom. The English title derives from a Brian Ferry cover of the song "I'm in the Mood for Love"; the Chinese title from the 1940s number 花样的年华 by Zhou Xuan, used in the film.
