Days of Being Wild Page #2

Synopsis: Set in 1960, the film centres on the young, boyishly handsome Yuddy, who learns from the drunken ex-prostitute who raised him that she is not his real mother. Hoping to hold onto him, she refuses to divulge the name of his real birth mother. The revelation shakes Yuddy to his very core, unleashing a cascade of conflicting emotions. Two women have the bad luck to fall for Yuddy. One is a quiet lass named Su Lizhen who works at a sports arena, while the other is a glitzy showgirl named Mimi. Perhaps due to his unresolved Oedipal issues, he passively lets the two compete for him, unable or unwilling to make a choice. As Lizhen slowly confides her frustration to a cop named Tide, he falls for her. The same is true for Yuddy's friend Zeb, who falls for Mimi. Later, Yuddy learns of his birth mother's whereabouts and heads out to the Philippines.

Anything I want to say,

I have said it long ago

I didn't say it before because

I don't want you to leave

And I won't say it now still

Cause I don't think it's worth to

I tell you,

...what can I get if

you go to find her?

Nothing!

And you will forget me as well

Why are you starring at me?

OK, I want you to hate me

At least, you won't forget me

Come on, treat me better

Maybe, I will tell you some day

If not, never dream so

Alright, I will wait for

that moment

Is his mother rich?

I think so, she used to be

a prostitute before

You know York for long?

He lived in the flat up

above our garage

Do you know

what is in his mind?

I don't know

But I know what is in your mind

What?

Don't fall in love with me

It's so late, what're you doing here?

Waiting for my friend

What's the matter?

A girl downstairs said

that she was your friend,

you'd better go & have a look

Excuse me

Why do you come for me?

I'd like to take back my stuffs

Come up then

I'd like to stay with you

What for?

I'm not suitable for you

I don't like marriage

like the others do

I don't mind

I just want to stay with you

Why are you so attentive to me?

You can't please me

for my whole life!

You won't be happy to stay with me

Have you ever loved me?

I don't know how many women

else I'd fall for in my life

I won't know whom I love

most till the end of my life

Wait here

I'll collect the things for you

Somebody's home?

Who is outside?

Don't be nosy!

Take off you slippers

Why?

It belongs to someone else

It's hers? Who say so?

Any proof here?

Are you going to take it off?

No!

A woman comes up suddenly,

...and she claims that this is hers,

that is hers,

How can I know how many women

would come up later?

If one comes & says

that you are hers,

should I give up?

I give nothing

Once I step in here,

everything is mine

Why you come up?

I've told you to stay downstairs

I'm leaving

Well, sleep with the

slippers tonight

Are you care about the slippers?

OK, I'll return it to her

Are you satisfied?

Somehow, nothing in this

house belongs to me!

What am l? I'd better leave!

Don't come back once you step out

Do you treat all women like this?

I won't be as stupid as her!

What are you doing?

Why do you treat me like this?

Stop it, I'm hurt...

How come it's you again?

Why don't you go home?

Many trouble will be solved

after a good sleep

Can you lend me few dollars

for me to take a cab?

I've only $5, is that enough?

How can I pay you back?

Forget it

I'm always on duty around here

A chance may be, take it

It's you

I'm taking the money back to you

No hurry, it doesn't matter

Sorry about that

Thanks! Are you alright?
