In the first story, Takeshi Kaneshiro's inner monologue is very classic. This should also be one of the charms of Wong Kar-wai's films. Compared with the pale and weak, or very hypocritical narration in today's films, Wong Kar-wai's films are deeply branded with Wong's style, abstraction, in-depth thinking, and figurative metaphors. Wordy, but comfortable. After watching the movie, I recall that it seems that all the impressions of the first paragraph are stuck, the erratic picture, and the long inner monologue.
The second story is a comedy story, accounting for about three-fifths of the film, and the reason for the length is much fuller than the first story. The lovelorn Tony Leung is a police officer who regularly goes to a drink shop to drink something every night. Faye Wong, a new waiter at the drink shop, falls in love with her. Because of her personality, she has been hiding in her heart. One day, Tony Leung's ex-girlfriend deposited a letter in a drink shop. Faye Wong used the key in the letter to often go to his house to help him clean up the house while Tony Leung was away. After a while, Tony Leung discovered that he turned to chasing Faye Wong. Faye Wong went to California, and gave him a registration certificate written by herself before leaving, but Tony Leung never knew the location. A year later, Faye Wong came back as a flight attendant, and Faye Wong became the owner of a beverage shop. Faye Wong gave him one. The new registration certificate, to some extent, hints that the two will develop in a good direction.
Watching this kind of movie, you can't ask the bottom line to ask what the show is, it means that you have no taste, and it will attract the ridicule of the queen of literature and art. You have to feel it and experience it. Around Chungking Mansions, in the city as cold as steel and concrete, such two loves often happen. "Fresh and fresh, what's new? You are the kind of person who likes the new and forgets the old." "Hey, do you know how much effort it takes to get a can of pineapple? You have to plant, pick, and cut again. If you say no, then don't? Have you ever thought about the feeling of canned food?" This was the state of a former classmate, and it was quite impressive. It's normal for people to like the new and fall in love with the old. Everyone knows that they have this habit, but they demand that their loved ones have an infinite freshness period for them. Whether it’s ten thousand years or one year, there is no difference, love always has its shelf life, but some loves are thrown away when they expire, and some loves are upgraded to family affection after they expire.
My favorite is the second story, from the depression of the first 40 minutes, there is a young and sunny Faye Wong. Sister Faye's shape reveals a personality, and she works hard in the beverage shop. The angel of dust, every move in 1994 is still imitated by many girls. The development of the relationship is as beautiful as the legendary snail girl. Watching Faye Wong bouncing around in Tony Leung's house during the music, her mood suddenly improved a lot. A beautiful flower suddenly grew out of the reinforced concrete Chungking Mansions. The overall tone of the film is dark, and there are often scenes of rain, which gives people a feeling of depression like the crowded buildings in Hong Kong. ray of sunshine. It has been about a day since I watched the movie, and there are still a few scenes that are unforgettable. When Faye Wong cleaned up the house for Tony Leung, when Tony Leung entered the house, the moment she closed the door; when Tony Leung came to ask Faye Wong, he kept shouting dead wait. . The corners and corners that also happen in daily life but are ignored by us are shown by the director with exaggerated methods in california dreaming, showing the beauty of the forest in Chongqing abruptly.
I'm not particularly fond of Wong Kar Wai-style films, but I'm not disgusted either. The reason is that you're following the characters in him, and if you can lower your profile, you'll feel things that you don't normally feel. His characters contain too many details, and it's impossible to say which details have your shadow. Maybe this character is fundamentally different from you, but his small habits and actions will give you a lot of room for reverie.
In 1994, Chongqing Forest was released, guess what it will bring to the crowded crowd in the city. If a movie represents a kind of life, then Wong Kar-wai shows people a kind of life that is hidden around us and not easy to detect. He is not rich and noble, but he lives a nourishing and unrestrained life. When everyone was unbearable, Wong Kar-wai brought something called petty bourgeoisie.
What exactly is petty bourgeoisie, it is hard to say. Looking at this conversation, it might feel a little bit.
"Where to go?"
"Whatever, California"
"California, is California fun?"
"Maybe, it's not fun to go somewhere else"
So, this is a kind of life.
