	Lan Yu (2001)
		Lan Yu is an important force iin Handong's life; in a sense, he's the one thing that Handong can never escape or deny.
		Lan Yu is totally different in his approach to his own sexuality, and that shows that newer generations are more confident aand open about their sexual preferences.
		One moment that depicts this effect on Lan Yu's life is the scene where he meets Hangdong again and tells him the exact time that has passed between their two meetings.

	Lan Yu
		Enter Lan Yu (striking Liu Ye), a fresh-faced and innocent architecture student from the country with little or no romantic or sexual experience, and the two mismatched men embark on a love affair that is, by turns, sexual, emotionally detached, loving and tragic.
		Lan Yu, though a minor film, is an important film in its own way, a small but finely observed tale of a closed-off man who, for a brief time, abandons his rigid and morally questionable ethics in favor of experiencing true love.
		Lan Yu is a compelling film that begins on a note of cheap sex, and by the end has come full circle with its questions of fate, inevitability and responsibility that is hard-won through real feelings and loyalty.

		LAN YU is pretty subdued, but under the surface, it's a ball of contradictions: a stately melodrama, carefully framed and photographed but apparently shot in natural light.
		Since LAN YU is based on BEIJING STORY, a 3-part, 10-chapter novel published on the Internet by the anonymous "Beijing Comrade," its twists and turns may stem from the novelist's need to preserve suspense over several installments.
		The plot of LAN YU is elliptical: a marriage begins, lasts and ends in about 90 seconds, a corpse is shown before the cause of its death is revealed.

		Yu's tale ends with her sacrificial death for her love, a mutual passion she enjoyed with the Chu King, whereas Cheng is never blessed with the realization of the dream for which he yearns.
		Ah Lan's first person narrative in the film reflects the oppression and misunderstanding that he confronted growing up as a gay man. As a teenager, he was first taken advantage of and then humiliated by a company quartermaster in a small mining town.
		In contrast to Lan Yu's wholehearted devotion, it takes Chen years to come out and realize the fact that his love for Lan Yu is stronger than the pressure from his surroundings and his commitment to having a family in the traditional sense.

		The point is that Handong and Lan Yu are the type of lovers that rush into the physical side of their relationship but never sits down to see each other as characters.
		Lan Yu received a Category III rating which obviously means that some form of "graphic" imagery takes place during the film.

	INTERVIEW: Love in the Time of Tiananmen; Stanley Kwan's "Lan Yu"
		As a love story, "Lan Yu" brings to bear a thematic universality that renders the characters' gayness incidental, or casually irrelevant.
		Still, to say that "Lan Yu" is a love story like any other love story would be to neglect a certain reality, one that denies the film a number of privileges usually enjoyed by the genre.
		I felt that that type of storytelling wouldn't work with "Lan Yu." The line between melodrama and soap opera is very fine and I didn't want "Lan Yu" to become a soap opera.

		Lan Yu was selected in the opening/closing night slots for the San Francisco, New York, and Los Angeles Gay Film Festivals inn 2002, as well as playing at the Sundance Film Festival, Cannes Film Festival, and Toronto Film Festival.
		LAN YU is a beautifully filmed, impressionistic look at a human dilemma: not recognizing what you really want until it's too late.

	Lan Yu (2001)
		Apparently based on a novel called "Beijing Story" anonymously posted internet, Lan Yu had to be filmed in secrecy in China because of its controversial subject: a homosexual relationship between a college student and an older man. This is indeed an intriguing set up for what turns out to be an unfortunately dull film.
		Spanning a (vaguely alluded to) decade, Lan Yu follows the relationship of a successful businessman sugar-daddy and the virginal college student that he picks up for a one-night trick.
		Ultimately, Lan Yu is basically a love story between a cute piece of ass and a bulging wallet.

		With its scenes of full-frontal nudity and its references to the Tiananmen Square protests, Lan Yu may be a breakthrough film for China, but it's well-trod territory for American viewers.
		For all of its careful realism, Lan Yu is constructed around clichés, plummeting toward a modestly heroic sacrifice and a tearjerking act of fate.

	Lan Yu (2000) - Movie Reviews - spcnet.tv
		Set in the 80s in the beautiful Beijing, Lan soon fell in love with Han, and was very secure in his love for the man. Han, on the other hand, wanted to keep the relationship strictly a casual one, warning Lan that they would eventually break up if the relationship became too intimate.
		Though he tried to deny his feelings for Lan by keeping the relationship on a monetary basis and showering Lan with expensive gifts, he could not stop the strong desire he had for Lan, and the wish to be with him as often as he could.
		Lan Yu is a fine example of such a film, as well as a victim of it.

	The Film Journal...Passionate and informed film criticism from an auteurist perspective.
		Lan Yu follows an affair between a businessman, Handong (Hu Jun) and a destitute student, Lan Yu (Liu Ye), who has resorted to prostitution to earn money for continuing his education.
		Lan Yu, who has fallen in love with Handong almost immediately, grudgingly agrees, but is nevertheless heartbroken when Handong abruptly ends the affair some months later, opting for straight marriage and security.
		While Lan Yu shares some of what made In the Mood for Love great (despite its mainland setting and locations, it has a very Hong Kong aesthetic), the ways in which it differs from that intricate picture are what make it not entirely successful.

	movie review \| lan yu (2002) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		If Stanley Kwan's Lan Yu is to be believed, there's a life to be lived in modern China that's not measurably different from the life of ambitious businessmen anywhere else in the world, a life of cell phones and German cars and business class travel and suburban monster homes.
		Handong (Hu Jan) is a successful businessman whose introduction to Lan Yu (Liu Ye) is simple enough - a starving student who'll do anything for money, and in Beijing a bit of amateur prostitution isn't apparently considered out of the ordinary.
		The fact that the love story that pushes the plot forward is a gay one is of almost no significance at all, and no one in the movie gives it a second thought.

	CANOE -- JAM! Movies - Lan Yu Review - Male bonding
		There's a fairytale quality to the events, but as Lan Yu concerns two men, that might not be the best way to state matters.
		But where Lan Yu is comfortable with the emotional aspect of their union, Handong is not.
		Lan Yu is often witty and the characters playful, but several references to fate maintain an undercurrent of tension and a sense of inevitable tragedy -- hence the fairytale aura of the narrative.

		Based on its outline, Lan Yu sounds like old melodrama--a noble prostitute enduring, for love, what a better-born customer misunderstands as nothing but harmless sport.
		The sharpest confrontation features Lan Yu jibing at his lover by sarcastically pretending to be a slave: "Master, in what position do you want me?"
		Lan Yu (Unrated; 86 min.), directed by Stanley Kwan, written by Jimmy Ngai, based on the Internet novel, photographed by Tao Yang and starring Liu Ye and Hu Jun, opens Friday at the Towne Theater in San Jose.

		A simple perfectly-conceived love story; great performances from actors working without artifice; and a situation and place allowing for political and social commentary of a subtle and fascinating nature.
		The film is set in Beijing in 1988 in the months leading up to the tragedy of Tiananmen Square and tells the story of Chen Handong is a successful businessman with deep Communist party connections and his love for a country boy named Lan Yu.
		To call Lan Yu a gay film’ would be sadly limiting.

	Movie Review - Lan Yu (Chinese) - www.ericdsnider.com - The Official Website of Eric D. Snider
		"Lan Yu" earns points for addressing a subject that is considered taboo in Chinese culture, enough to get the film banned in its native land.
		He meets newbie hustler Lan Yu (Liu Ye), a simple boy from the country, who falls harder for Handong than Handong does for him.
		Their relationship is well-acted by the leads, but Jimmy Ngai's screenplay is so sparse as to be slow-witted.

		Lan Yu is the first dramatic feature made in China to reference, however briefly, the Tiananmen Square massacre, but on that score it's an unremarkable, if brave, movie.
		The affair endures many twists and separations, yet each estrangement only brings the two closer, and the director, Stanley Kwan, swathes them in layers of shadow that make us seek out the light of connection in their faces.
		''Lan Yu'' is at times too restrained, yet there are moments it captures the erotics of intimacy in a way that makes most American love stories look downright unfree.
