Yes, it was indeed amazing, but they were willing to forget that they felt that way in order to condemn smoking.

City of Sadness is in many ways Hou Hsiao Hsien's masterpiece, it is an epic done in his inimitable style, with beautiful cinematography, poetic dialogue and characters filed with bitterness and sweatness to themselves.

some films can be called a "national cinema," a film that defines a nation--and many of them are not necessary good cinema, like "Gone With the Wind" for the US, "Les Enfants du Paradis" for France. but for Taiwan, not only that "A City of Sadness" is a film that defines their nation, this is also truly great cinema. not so many people are that lucky--like "The Marriage of Maria Braun" for the germans.
