CAFÉ. WAITING. LOVE | 等一個人咖啡 (Taiwan, 2014)
Directed by: Chiang Chin-lin
Starring: Vivian Sung, Bruce, Megan Lai, Marcus Chang

Three years after his record-breaking debut You Are the Apple of My Eye, writer-director Giddens Ko has penned an irresistibly zany romantic comedy, based on his book of the same name, this time with Chiang Chin-lin in the director’s seat. Following Siying (Vivian Sung), an undergrad and part-time worker at the titular café, the film zips through unrequited crushes, dreams of travel, hot sausages, bowls of tau fu fah (sweet soya bean pudding), and even the supernatural like the fired bullet that’s something right out of a gag-manga. Shining as the young leads, Vivian Sung and Bruce have electrifying chemistry, while Vivian Chow also makes a rare and glamourous appearance after years away from the public eye.
