The Young Ones ( simplified Chinese: 彩云飞; traditional Chinese: 彩雲飛; pinyin: Cǎiyún Fēi; lit. 'flying rosy clouds') is a 1973 Taiwanese film, spoken in Mandarin. The film was adapted into screenplay by Chang Yung-hsiang from the novel of the similar Chinese name by Chiung Yao. It was directed by Li Hsing. It stars Chen Chen ( 甄珍) and Alan Tang. The music was conducted by Zuo Hong Yuan ( 左宏元). In the film, the man falls in love with a physically frail woman, who later dies. Then he meets another woman, who looks similar to her.
Chiung Yao's novels, Caiyun Fei and Hai'ou Fei Chu (海鷗飛處), were adapted into one 1980s television series, Hai'ou fei chu caiyun fei (海鷗飛處彩雲飛) (English: Seagulls Soaring In Iridescent Clouds).
