In their university days, Zhao Mo Sheng fell in love at first sight with law student He Yi Chen. Through various incidents where Mo Sheng "stalked" Yi Chen on campus, Mo Sheng's cheerful personality charmed Yi Chen, and they slowly became college sweethearts.

When Yi Chen's foster sister Yi Mei challenged Mo Sheng for Yi Chen's attention, Mo Sheng turned directly to Yi Chen for clarification but did not expect to receive a cold response from him.

Mistaking that Yi Chen and Yi Mei are a couple, Mo Sheng followed her father's arrangements and moved to the United States to continue her studies. Seven years later, Mo Sheng - who is now a professional photographer - returns to China, and coincidentally bumps into the unforgettable Yi Chen.

Since the seven years they broke up, many people stand in the way of these star-crossed lovers: foster-sister Yi Mei; Mo Sheng's marriage in the United States; the unrelentingly infatuated ex-husband Ying Hui; as well as the financial grudges between the couple's fathers. All these situations continue to affect the two former lovers, but instead, these misunderstandings and challenges give them a better comprehension of the love they have missed over the past seven years.

Among the steady stream of new Chinese movies opening in America, “A Beautiful Life” stands out — rather than an overstuffed, jingoistic historical tale or martial-arts blowout, it’s a contemporary romantic melodrama with a plaintive pop soundtrack that might call to mind “Terms of Endearment,” “The Other Sister” or, most strongly, a Nora Ephron comedy minus most of the laughs. (There’s also a bit of “Memento” thrown in.) It’s no great shakes, but a substantial number of American moviegoers — soft-hearted, slightly masochistic and largely abandoned by Hollywood — would like it if they found their way to it. The first hour, especially, is charming, before the balance shifts from romance to melodrama to, in the final minutes, the kind of maudlin crescendo that Asian audiences are accustomed to. The director, Andrew Lau, gives further proof of his versatility, having already shown that he can make very good gangster movies (“Infernal Affairs”) and so-so kung-fu epics (“Legend of the Fist,” which opened in the United States last month). He practices heroic restraint and delicacy, given the five main characters he’s been handed: one’s blind, one’s autistic, one’s mute, one has early-onset dementia and one’s a healthy, bitter drunk. Mr. Lau is helped by his charismatic stars, Shu Qi and Liu Ye, both of whom are very appealing within the narrow range set for them. Mr. Liu plays an upright cop who’s slowly losing his memory and leaves himself notes to remind him of his daily tasks; Ms. Shu has the Holly Golightly role as a real estate agent trying to strike it rich in Beijing so that she can support her parasitic Hong Kong family. (One not very convincing theme of the film is Beijing incorruptibility versus Hong Kong decadence.) She’s a bit forced and shrill in her drunk scenes, but otherwise she underplays adroitly and flashes some sly humor.
