Acclaimed Hong Kong New Wave director Wong Kar-Wai presents a kinetic, offbeat look at his city in these two stories. The first concerns a young woman (Brigitte Lin) who has been double-crossed in a heroin deal and her budding romance with a lovelorn cop (Takeshi Kaneshiro). The second deals with another officer (Tony Leung) whose girlfriend has left him and the young waitress (Faye Wong) who tries to help him without his knowledge.
Cast:
"...Exhilarating....There is no mistaking Wong's talent..."
-- Peter Travers
, (Rolling Stone)
"...Visual flair....[Wong] displays aggressive energy..." -- Janet Maslin , (New York Times) "...Head over heels with stop-motion...and gleefully spinning off socko genre lines..." -- Robert Horton , (Film Comment) "...CHUNGKING EXPRESS is as fresh as falling rain, a pair of love stories full of pain and humor....Wong has as wonderful a way with actors as he has with a camera..." -- Kevin Thomas , (Los Angeles Times) "...Wong is more of an art director, playing with the medium itself, taking fractured elements of criss-crossing stories and running them through the blender of pop culture..." -- Roger Ebert , (Chicago Sun-Times) "A hip and quirky movie, perhaps, but one that's gently profound, too." -- John Mulvey , (Uncut) "Full of Wong's signature blurred slo-mo, this playful charmer interweaves two stories..." -- Missy Schwartz , (Entertainment Weekly) |
