FBA: Romancing in Thin Air review
Ambitious riff on Asian melodrama is diverting but lacks real emotional oxygen.

SCMP: Cutting it in Beijing - without selling out (Pang Ho-Cheung)
Rather than offering melodramatic high jinks and endless sequences showcasing Beijing's hypermodern urban landscape - two things which litter mainland romantic comedies of the past few years - Love in the Buff is comparatively restrained, drawing its humour from the way the two Hongkongers consolidate themselves in Beijing through personal and professional relationships they establish there.

Zhang Yimou, Zhang Weiping

Rumours are circulating through the weibo-sphere that director Zhang Yimou and long-time business partner producer Zhang Weiping are parting ways. The two either had a falling out due to Yimou's recent marriage "scandal" or differences over money according to the speculation. During the promotions for "The Flowers of War" it was noted that they rarely appeared together and promoted the film separately. Their relationship has spanned over 23 years. (Sina), 2, 3
