Background and production

In 1960s Hong Kong films, there was a trend of films about a songstress who becomes is a self-sacrificing and becomes a tragic figure. This was seen in early films like The Wild, Wild Rose (1960), Love Without End (1961), with the latter big a big hit and earning Linda Lin her fourth and final Best Actress Awards at the Asian Film Festival in Seoul, South Korea in 1962. The latter film influenced director Derek Yee.

In his book Planet Hong Kong, David Bordwell said that near the beginning of the 1990s, filmmakers in Hong Kong began a cycle of "relationship movies" which featured less pricy stars, sentimental scripts and were devoid of special effects, and also contained lyrical film scores that could be marketed to the music market.
