Urban forest in reinforced concrete

It's the first Hong Kong literary film I've seen. I've always wanted to see a film directed by Wong Kar-wai, and the outside world's comments on him are romantic and beautiful. But the chasing shots at the beginning can really be said to be very beautiful. The people and the scenery have overlapping shadows, and I can only barely see Brigitte Lin with a golden wig, running through the scenes. I actually thought I made a mistake at first. After all, Wong Kar Wai is a well-known director, and such a low-level mistake should not be made. So why does Wong Kar Wai use such a shaky lens? One of the very interesting points is the numbers in the Chongqing Forest. Police number 223, and the most classic "When we were the closest, I was only 0.01 cm away from her." "After 57 hours, I fell in love with this woman." "Love you for ten thousand years" These numbers represent the precise numbers required for almost everything in modern society, even the distance between people must be calculated. Later, 233 met a wanted woman, and he made a ridiculous decision to fall in love with her, just because she was the first woman who walked in. Here's a little episode. When I watched the movie, I didn't understand what happened to the white man and the woman with the blond hair. What did the director mean by putting these two people together? The second time I saw it, I realized that the woman 233 said was wearing sunglasses to cover her swollen eyes from crying because of a lovelorn, while the wanted man said that people can change. Today they like pineapples, and tomorrow they can like other things. The white man made a wig after putting it on the woman. It is not difficult to guess that he likes blonde hair. Thinking that the wanted criminal always wears blonde hair, it can be inferred that the white man may be the former lover of the wanted criminal, but he betrayed her. , and ended up killing him too, leaving the blond wig that white people like to fly away. 233's characterization is also very full, although we have never seen his ex-girlfriend, but from the beginning he is a low-profile call to people's homes to greet him, to when he encounters a female wanted criminal, he uses his tie to polish people's shoes. , This scene is really shocking. In the past, a boy used his most decent decoration to wipe a woman's shoes. This detail is great. I am quite surprised that these characters have almost no plot together, they have almost no intersection, and they just skip to the next story of urban men and women. The next story is about 663 and A Fei. Personally, I don't have much impression of Faye Wong, but I feel that she sings ethereal and arrogant. Chongqing Forest can be regarded as breaking my prejudice against her. In the movie, A Fei is quirky and quirky, with a young girl's immaturity, holding his ex-girlfriend's key and starting to shuttle to 663's house, so absurd but reasonable. But when her secret love finally had a chance to come true, she ran away, and the reason she finally gave was that she wanted to see California. The answer was inexplicable, but it was too much for her. In the end, I really think that the unique tone of Chongqing Forest is partly due to the music, and every piece of music appears just right.
