Such wonderful and emotional-tugging trailers and posters for a beautiful cast in Sean Lau, Tang Wei, Boran Jing, and Qin Hai Lu. A Tale of Three Cities is a romantic war film featuring the love between two widowed people and how they are forced to leave the city they love and the son they share. Written and directed by a female figure, Mabel Cheung (The Soong Sisters), it is a film not be missed.
