But Always
''But Always'' () is a 2014 Chinese-Hong Kong romantic drama film directed by Snow Zou. Plot ''But Always'' takes place in New York City, however, though it focuses on Asian culture in America. Anran and Yongyuan meet in 1982, when Anran transfers to Yongyuan's school. She is wealthier than her classmates who approach her with suspicion. The school bully assigns Yongyuan to follow Anran, which is a role that he happily accepts for the next 20 years. One sign of his devotion is that he can always recognise her footsteps. Anran and Yongyuan bond as they share the common tragedy of losing their mother in the same earthquake. However, their mothers come from different backgrounds, as Yougyuan's was a peasant and Anran was a doctor. Yongyuan's guardian dies and his uncle takes him away.

A decade later, Yongyuan returns to Beijing and encounters Anran, who is now a pre-med stude ...
