Shenzhen movie fans, particularly the sentimental female ones, have a reason to be excited this month, as two romantic love stories hit the city’s silver screens.
“Waiting Alone,” which will open Sept. 8, and “Beautiful Shanghai,” which will be in theaters from Sept. 15, are both set in Shanghai.

Though “Beautiful Shanghai” boasts many big names, insiders feel that “Waiting Alone” will do well, on the back of enthusiastic performances from the young actors, a strong plot and great direction.

Romance and Cigarettes is a story about just that. The first half of the story deals with Nick Murder (James Gandolfini) and the fact that he's cheating on his wife Kitty (Susan Sarandon) with Tula (Kate Winslet). And why not?
