A sixteen year old girl commits suicide by jumping off a bridge into the Suzhou River when she mistakenly suspects that her boyfriend has been using her. He is wrongfully imprisoned for the murder, but gets a chance at a new beginning when he is released.
Overview:
Along the banks of the Suzhou River, which winds precariously through Shanghai, Marda (Jia Hongshen) falls in love with a dramatically beautiful young woman named Moudan (Zhou Xun). When he tries to kidnap her in order to demand ransom money from her rich father, she escapes him, jumping into the river and disappearing forever. Marda serves a three year jail sentence for his attempted crime. Upon his release, he meets a woman that looks exactly like Moudan, named MeiMei (also played by Zhou Xun).
An exciting, action-filled mystery suspense movie, director Lou Ye's "Suzhou River" shares many thematic and stylish elements with Alfred Hitchcock's "Vertigo".
