Reason 1: A love story with substance.
Reason 2: Wong Kar-wai one of the Great Directors of our generation.
Reason 3: Blu-ray is the ultimate format to keep preservation of great films like this.
1. Chungking Express is great so I figure this should be pretty good too; 2. I like the color red & pretty girls (Danger! Danger!); 3. Without DVDs & Blu-rays my TV is pretty much a combination nightlight & space heater.
1-Wong Kar-wai's direction.
2- The cinematography!!!
and 3- Maggie Cheung's walk in the film when she walks anywhere in slow motion with the wonderful ,sensual soundtrack.
“Marjorie Perloff described modernism as "less revolution than restoration" I think this is why Chaplin's Modern Times exhibits the aura of modernism as she calls it. Modern Times is not a silent . . .”
“I'm not sure if you're implying that the film blurred the line between physical abuse being acceptable or not. Certainly it's not to be celebrated in any capacity. But in the film it serves as one . . .”
“Michael, I'm not sure what you mean by "Turner DVD" nor what you mean by there being an editing issue. Are you referring to the Warner DVD with the red snap-case? It does have a cropping issue . . .”
