Lights in the Apartment


Why is it that for most of the movie, the apartment Fai and Ho share is bathed in artificial light, even when they're trying to sleep? Only once, if I recall correctly, did one of them turn the lights off before trying to sleep.

Is there some significance to this, is was it just a way to get a good shot in that dinghy hole?

The directer wanted to hide the clue of time.The artificial light dosen't tell day or night.The audience will feel the time is lasting.
