"Beauty
Remains" is the story of two sisters--Fei and Ying--bound
together by the will of their late father, and their shared
love for a charismatic ex-boxer, Huang. They are two women
whose paths have been dictated by the often cruel decrees of
the men in their lives--two women who must somehow transcend
that influence...or lose everything.

《美人依舊》說的是發生在1948年上海的一個故事。同父异母的兩姐妹(鄔君梅和周迅飾)因為上一輩無可違拗的宿命，在相离十五年后又不得已重聚，重聚時偏偏又同時愛上一個不屬于他們生活的男人黃先生（王志文飾），演繹出一段愛恨情仇。《美人依舊》是女人的故事。怀舊、風流、冷艷，有花團錦簇，也有刻骨蝕魂。兩個女人之間的較量，既有著千絲万縷的親情也有著難分難舍的愛怜。
在美國闖蕩多年且頗有成就的華裔女導演胡安，當年憑借一部《西洋鏡》成功打入國內市場并為國人家喻戶曉。她是一位非常個性化的導演，中西合璧的教育背景使得她的導演風格兼具了西方文化中的熱烈奔放和東方神韻中的溫婉柔媚。自《西洋鏡》后胡安一直在尋找中意的題材，女性話題是她關注的焦點，尤其是對張愛玲的作品更是情有獨鐘。胡安導演也曾一度籌拍過張愛玲的《第一爐香》和《色戒》，對張愛玲精心构筑的女人世界分析得精當而細膩，卻因种种原因未能如愿。在經過了几年的沉淀后，胡安導演仍關注女性世界，她始終想拍一部真正反映女性心路程歷程的影片。《美人依舊》讓她終于如愿。
