Valiant bid to revive love for slacking genre

While romantic films received a poor reception in China last year, a recent hit may point to signs of a revival of the genre, which was once a big-screen favorite.

Run for Love, an expensive title that premiered on Valentines' Day, has garnered lots of attention for its heavyweight cast.

Five veteran directors and 10 stars are behind the feature, which was shot in picturesque locations in Japan, Norway, the United States, Turkey and Saipan.
