The movie tells the real-life love story of Lt. Col. Lee Cheng-liang, a high profile Indigenous Defense Fighter (IDF) jet pilot, and his visually impaired wife, who are played by Taiwanese actor Bryant Chang and actress Tiffany Hsu, respectively.
I watch this movie streaming from D+Hotstar in 2022. Watching it thinking it's China movie because the thumbnail show the supporting actress that looks like NiNi in certain angle.At 1st I just let the movie play through as I play some random movie/show on D+ on my iPad to help me sleep at night.Then tomorrow when I open the apps again I was like; well let's just continue the movie from yesterday & I keep rewind to 15secs earlier because somehow I stopped at the MC flirting with FMC, I swear when I start watching the movie the heroin/FMC is another girl & hero/MC is just a background/side character.And it works like a charm on my 2nd viewing because now you can see when & where the MC starts to notice the FMC & falls in love.And on 1hourish I was like, wait that's not China flag, wait this is Taiwan movie? And I'm more impressed because i do have watch other famous Taiwan movie & I'm not impressed, the apple my heart something, that's mediocre but this movie actually didn't make me turn off my iPad & D+ apps.Throughly enjoy this movie, can easily rate it 10/10 but give it 8-9/10. -1* for being too long at 2.5hrs can cut some unnecessary scene.Another -1* because the flight scene isn't that good but that can be accepted because it's Taiwan movie that lack budget unlike China movie that got styles but lacking substance (got budget for great cgi/explosion/action but the plot is all over the place&wooden acting)Anyway this movie only got 50votes at 2022 & 0 review? You Taiwanese are weird, that apple heart something isn't good & cringeworthy! You guys should promote this movie more to outsiders.Probably the best Taiwan movie that I've watch (Kano is Japan movie bout Taiwan baseball team so it didn't count)

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
