Film Name:每當變幻時 / Hooked On You
《Hooked On You》 is a film set in Hong Kong that follows the life changes and emotional story of the main characters, Ah Miu and Fishy, over the course of a decade. Through the experiences of Ah Miu and Fishy, the film shows the social changes that took place during the 10th anniversary of Hong Kong’s return to China, as well as people’s choices and misses amidst the changing times.
Ah Miu is a single woman who sells fish in a vegetable market. She struggles to pay off the debts owed by her father while pursuing her dreams. In the process, she forms a bond with the fish man. The two go through many twists and turns from initial conflict to mutual concern. In the film, Ah Miu’s character represents those who are not satisfied with the status quo and strive for a better life. Fishy, on the other hand, represents those who stick to tradition in the midst of change. Their stories reflect the choices and perseverance of different people under social change.
Another highlight of the film is the delicate portrayal of emotions. The relationship between Ah Miu and Fish is not love in the traditional sense, but a deep emotion beyond friendship and different from love. They care about each other, but cannot be together because of their own insistence. The treatment of this emotion allows the audience to feel the deep meaning that the film wants to convey – in the ever-changing world, there are some things that are worth holding on to.
Overall, 《Hooked On You》 is a film worth watching, which not only shows the social changes in Hong Kong in the past decade, but also profoundly explores people’s choices and emotions in the midst of change. Each character in the film has their own story, and each character grows and changes in their own way.
