About My Heavenly Lover
Friends since childhood, Lee and Wong grow up together, live in the same neighborhood, go to the same school and now work for the same employer. In family life, they are poles apart. Wong has been married to Mary for eight years while Lee is a happy-go-lucky bachelor. In fact, Lee envies Wong for his happy marriage and Wong wants to have Lee's freedom. When Nancy leaves Hong Kong for a long assignment in the United States, then, Wong tries to take Lee out of his gloom, saying the world is full of pretty women. So, Lee meets and goes after air stewardess Susie who is very feminine. But she too recoils away from the suggestion of marriage. Lee suspects she has a lover...
Directed by Albert Lai Gin-Kwok, My Heavenly Lover leans on a strong ensemble — Terence Choi, Cecilia Yip Tung, Billy Lau Nam-Kwong — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about romance titles of 1986.
