Wendy Ide Screen International 10/12/2023
A film that focuses on a literary legacy and Hong Kong’s past, while rather sidestepping the social and artistic realities of Hong Kong’s present, it’s a niche proposition – although certainly one made with a great deal of love. Go to Full Review Sean Gilman In Review Online 04/14/2024
The real subject of Elegies, the one on everyone’s mind that no one can come right out and say — they are poets, after all — is the political situation in Hong Kong in the wake of the 2019-2020 protests. Elegies is a lament for a lost Hong Kong. Go to Full Review Edmund Lee South China Morning Post 11/29/2023
3.5/5
Hui’s film is as much an elegy for Huang and Liu’s personal pasts in Hong Kong as it is for a city that has since become unrecognisable even for some of its most intimate observers. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
