I Love You is a 2002[1] Chinese drama film directed by Zhang Yuan and starring Xu Jinglei and Tong Dawei.

Reading the book, Zhang agreed, though he moved the story's action forward from the 1980s to present day Beijing.

[2] Even though I Love You was an adaptation, Zhang approached the film with total freedom of creativity, in part because he found the story very realistic.

[4] Like his previous film, Seventeen Years, Zhang Yuan's foray into mainstream movie making has been both praised and criticized.

[9] While Derek Elley of Variety argues that the film represents a move towards "maturity,"[4] Richard James Havis of The Hollywood Reporter takes an opposite tack, arguing that the film's lack of political grounding and mainstream nature leaves it a "cold romantic thriller" that "lacks the emotional muscle" to appeal to international audiences.

[6] The theme song "Wo Ai Ni" (我爱你; "I Love You") was composed by Zhang Yadong, written by Xiao Wei (肖玮) of Catcher in the Rye and performed by Faye Wong.
