Chung Hing sam lam
How many people do you brush past every day in a busy big city? How often do you make a connection with any of them?Chungking Express is a love letter to the purest of love, without the Hollywood mushiness, grand gestures and even unrequited at times.
We follow two Hong Kong cops love lives, taking us through many different states of love in a stylish and musically accompanied way. It sucks you in, intoxicates you and leave you with a feeling you've never really seen anything quite like it. Still. It reminds you of other great directors taking you into the loneliness, obsession or anticipation.
Kar Wai Wong have both written and directed this shining pearl, and I add his name to those I'll be looking deeper into filmographies of in the future.
