The Second Woman(2012)
情谜
The Second Woman Synopsis
One suspects writer-director Carol Lai may have harboured some Black Swan ambitions with a tale that also centers around a stage practitioner who embarks on an unwitting destructive journey when playing a role to die for. The Second Woman, whose Chinese title Romance Riddle may hold better clues as to how this film developed, being more of a guessing game that threw constant clues rather than a overly romantic film about twins falling in love with a man who decided it's perfectly OK to string both women along, until he discovers that this spells double trouble.
The Second Woman (2012) is a drama, romance and thriller film directed by Carol Lai Miu-Suet, released on March 8, 2012 with a runtime of 1h 42m. It stars Shu Qi, Shawn Yue Man-Lok, Chen Shu and Niu Mengmeng. Viewers rate it 4.8 out of 10 across 8 ratings.
