I thought it was ... bizarre that no thread had been opened for this wonderful movie yet. I do believe it deserves one, if not for true discussion, at least to advertise it. It definitely holds a very high place in my list of favourites: this movie is clever, poignant, romantic, surprising and has got OUTSTANDING music.
It also belongs to those films one feels the need to talk about after watching it; the problem is, there's no way to talk about it without spoiling the plot, and spoilers here would be particularly annoying, given the "secret".
Following, some infos about the movie:
Secret (traditional Chinese: 不能說的秘密, literally "The Secret That Cannot Be Told"), is a 2007 Taiwanese romance film. It is the directorial debut feature film of Taiwanese musician Jay Chou, who also stars as the male lead and co-wrote the movie.
Ye Xianglun (Jay Chou), a music student majoring in piano, transfers to Tamkang (Danjiang) Secondary School. It is a school famous for musically talented students, especially in piano. On the first day of school, as he wanders through the piano building, he hears a mysterious melody being played that leads him to Lu Xiaoyu (Kwai Lun-mei), another piano major. When he asks her about the song she was playing, she tells him that it is a secret that cannot be told. The two develop a relationship that is clouded in mystery.
