Produced and directed by Johnnie To and Wai Ka Fai, the film stars Takeshi Kaneshiro and Gigi Leung. The story is based on the book A Chance of Sunshine by Jimmy Liao, who makes a cameo appearance in the film. It is also the first Chinese-language Asian film ever from Warner Bros.
The original graphic novel is now sold under the name "Turn left, turn right" and consists of a series of detailed cartoon images, with a small amount of text in a diary style. The film has managed to include every single image in the book with a high level of accuracy, although some are fleeting.

Both are amazing highschool romance. They gave viewers this warm feeling and heart-fluttering moments that make us fall in love with the movies.
Both ML in the movies are kind and sweet but KNT ml is more the friendly and charming type while OSD ml is more tsundere, blunt type.
But FL in both movies are similar. Shy, timid but kind. For me personally, OSD fl is more relatable because despite the shy and timid personality, she actually has social life and actually have no problem communicating with people (unless when it comes to her feelings)
