Far Away Love (Chinese: 遙遠的愛; pinyin: Yáoyuǎn de Ài), also translated as Love of Far Away and Remote Love, is a 1947 Chinese film directed by Chen Liting. Made during the Republican era, it was produced by the state-owned China Film No. 2 Studio,[1] and stars prominent actors and actresses Zhao Dan, Qin Yi, and Wu Yin.[1] The film was well received, and its premiere in Shanghai is considered a landmark event in postwar Chinese cinema.[1]
The film's screenplay is officially attributed to director Chen Liting, but according to Chen himself, it was in fact written by the leftist dramatist Xia Yan, whose authorship was concealed for political consideration.[2]
